    After being stuck in snow on a hill of a busy motorway, I decided to trade in my two year old C220 for a new fully loaded C43 coupe premium plus which I took delivery April 2019, this for me is the perfect daily driver, no weather conditions has ever stopped me and I feel totally safe regardless. When the 'go faster idiots' are feet away from your backside, I can show them a clean pair of heels with a great exhaust soundtrack. For a daily driver, for someone who enjoys driving, the C43 is the best option in my opinion, when looks, comfort, handling and performance are packaged together it's hard to better.

    I like the way you think and communicate. My C43 coupe is a perfect daily with all the boxes ticked. Compared with Audi and BMW equivalents and it won hands down. My biggest gripe is the foot rest size. Anyone with big feet and then wearing big chunky shoes will notice how there really is no foot rest. I fixed it with an aftermarket aluminium stick on. It even has the same round rubber grips like the pedals. I noticed even the E coupe has this same problem.

    • @GoksCarLounge

    When I first heard the C43's exhaust note, I was blown away. I didn't think the entry level AMG that the C43 is to sound that fantastic, I thought it would sound kind of muted and pathetic, and AMG would reserve the good sounding exhaust for the flagship C63 S.

      I have a C43 2020 sedan. Personally I prefer the c43 than the A35. The c-class instead older, it's better daily, more space, more luxury and quality in the interior, it's better car all arround. Only thing it's less nimble as the compact A35, A class has newer tech, and then the 4 cylinder vs 6 cylinder(I still have 2 turbo Saabs, I am used to the 4 cylinder, but the 6....). If you value the sound and the feeling of the v6, having a bigger and "more car", then the c43, instead it's older and just at it's end of life. If you value a more compact, some "sportier" feel, more advanced tech, newer design... C43 I higly recommend the exterior package. I have the brilliant blue with full exterior package and night package and looks awesome.
