2019 Mercedes-AMG CLS 53 Review // A Real AMG?
Вставка
- Опубліковано 8 січ 2019
- This Mercedes-AMG CLS 53 comes in at $109,850 CAD (approx $83,000 USD), which seems like a lot, until you really take a close look at this car and its Inline-6 Engine. ... So this week, Thomas and James try to figure out if the CLS can own its AMG Badge.

Lmao that intro was everything guys, cat fished
Liked/thumbs-up after the intro, before viewing the car review...
@@phineastbirdpocket1126 I won’t
Throttle House, Straight Pipes, Motormouth... Canadians are killing it in the car review game. Who else? I want more!
kimchee411 definitely keep motormouth out of that list. That guy is a dead beat
Have you hear about carwow???
savagegeese and carfection are great as well
Savagegeese!
kimchee411 but man really these guys have the best intros ever
Love how you guys show the outside of the car while driving and talking. Way more entertaining than just looking at people talk from the inside the whole time lol
This channel is the closest you can get to the trio (Jeremy, James and Hammond) on the old top gear. Love how honest you guys are when reviewing cars.
The only thing missing is a 'James May' for them to both pick on.
Is cool that Mercedes has gone back to inline sixes.
Sounds like shite noe
Yes.
They claim they departed from the I-6s in 1999 because the size of the motor could no longer fit under the hood.
Christopher Lembra totally disagree
@@roccotarli762 How dare you disagree with me!
@@CHLM98 english much?
The quality of your videos continues to increase! Very pleased with how far you've come in the last year. I hope you triple your subs in the next 6 months. You deserve it. Great review.
So you're saying that this car will pretty much guarantee me a tinder date? SOLD!!!
Grindr not tinder
Just keep the car and forget about the date. It's cheaper.
It'll guarantee a catfish. 😆
I have owned 4 CLSs over 15 years and look forward to owning a 2019 CLS53 !
This channel needs to grow 10x faster. Such great, informative content, very cool and suave reviewers, and videos are perfect length for each's respective content. Love you guys, keep it up.
More comparisons!! New vs old NSX, Z06 vs 911, Viper vs GT3, or Miata vs BRZ, please?
Matt Watlington we got some good shit comin. Sportier ones for when the sun melts the bloody snow!
True
@@jamesengelsman9369 Good news, you're now rich
@@CatsAgainstCommunism haha am I?
@James Engelsman first off go to bed. Secondly, thank you for responding. Legit didn't zee that coming.. if you make over $500k/yr you're on the 1%. You're one of the good ones tho
Old CLS63 for the win
Soon the base CLS will be an ”AMG 33”
Which year?

Actually the old CLS w219 was a piece of crap. I hated everything about it. After 2 years of owning it, it was literally falling apart. Traded it in for my current 2015 w212 and the E class blows it away in almost everything. IMO all the newer MB are much better built and reliable than the older ones.
@@QuanPham-uq7ml - I fully understand. The W219 is actually only a W211. Of course, the W212 beats it easily. And you even had the facelift of the W212.
You guys deserve way more subs..
Awesome start of the video like always 😂
hahahah, awesome intro :) great review keep it up guys!
those intros have potential to turn into netflix series. (!)
i always click to learn about your thoughts on cars but intros always steal the show, now i cant focus on the cls because this car turned into golddigger bait in one selfie in my mind :P
-and on top of that the catch is thomas!
What do you expect to learn from a fake sport car review ?
milli pekmez and he didn’t even pay for dinner that night.
@@jamesengelsman9369 yeah that's the common behavior of golddiggers right? :)
Great video! You do transitions very well. The new CLS is gorgeous, inside and out. Hnnngggg.
Thomas and James your enthusiasm is great to watch and helpful to potential buyers. Thanks for rich descriptions of driving feel too. Ace vid!
Eliot Salandy Brown my dad told me never to trust a man with three names. But I’ll drop that rule for you Eliot. Thanks and lots to come this year!
Holy channel growth Batman!!! Good stuff guys; loving the videos.
Throttle House review. Day just got better!
The beginning of this video is HILARIOUS!
great production and content too.
I subscribed.
Keep it up, please.
1st time viewer... Congratulations!!!
Seriously love your channel and the intro was amazing!
Go Canada!
Why do you guys in North America ruin the look with those orange strips!
Great works guys hope you get the succes you strive for because you have great content! Keep the funny skits coming !!
I always loved the sound AMG cars make.
I’ve been a car enthusiast all along and I’ve had the opportunity to have and drive many cars. I recently purchased a CLS 2015 from a friend at a very decent price. I wasn’t ott at the beginning on my purchase but now having it 8 months, the CLS is one the most amazing cars: from driving turning cruising etc; For me it more so than a s class in overall practicality: have my eyes on a 53 amg:
I love how much fun you guys are having in the cabin. James taking control of Thomas Massage Seat. “It’s Like SEVEN Coffees!!!!”
you have the best car review on youtube... trust me... thought its was the straight pipes but you guys are real!!!!!!
Hmm love the interior and front end but i just cant get on with that rear.
Same I like the previous one better
Same opinion
Damn, James and Thomas are just great - hope they never change
Every time a great video!! Thnx mates
Great review. If I did win the lottery, the simple fact that a straight six has better balance than a V8, gives pause for thought before defaulting to the V8 AMG.
I would buy it. I know that the V8 isnt available for the CLS but I think that the driving experience that you get with the new engine and this new technology that Mercedes uses might make up for it.
4:02 we are about to go bumper to bumper of this cls 53 amg!
This just popped in my head hearing the song lol
that’s what i was thinking
you are a man of culture
Finish that software update I've been working on.....or watch Throttle House?
A man's gotta have priorities. The software will have to wait.
Nice Vid! Like u a lot guys - greetings from Germany!
Greetings! Thanks for watching.
Idc if I'm late. I've been watching your videos lately, and the intros are hilarious.
Thanks guys. I just ordered one and never realized how much fun this will be until I saw this video.
P C amazing. Enjoy it!
good for you enjoy
Intro is so lit 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥😂🤷♀️🤦♂️
this was the best one yet
the sickest intro EVER ! :):)
Great car. I had the old original version of this car and it was awesome. Real head turner. The air matic worked really well and much better than my 2011 E550. Here is the opportunity for someone to make a comment about how to make it a little more firm in both modes. No complaints about the new car just not as good handling wise as the old car.
I can watch this video once a week that intro never gets old lol 😂
That intro had me dying, the new inline 6 Mercedes is using is definitely nice
A great review for a great car!
Please review the CLA 45 AMG, its the fastest 4 cylinder engine in the world and i know you have some comparison videos but i think it deserves a full review
This video made me change my mind! I was going for the 2018 Audi RS7, but am now in the market for the AMG CLS 53. Thank you!
Wtf😂
The CLS is a remarkable car...Great review.
I just love the chemistry between James and Thomas.
Too funny.
I'm driving the c43 AMG right now and honestly this would be the next car I would buy right now
Hey that’s my car! I’ve been looking for this video 😂
Loool! I love your intros 😂😂😂😂
Best intro ever.... Congrats guys 🤣🤣
The start of this video.... EPIC 😂
THE ONLY CAR I WOULD BUY WITHOUT QUESTION....
Steering wheel is fantastic, love that kinda 3 part flatness
You just got a new subscriber off that opening scene LOL!
Jeremy Roopnarinesingh welcome Jeremy!
Wow they actually mentioned "Didn't doug say this is not the camera" when I was thinking that
I like to call myself a bmw guy, but this car is absolutely beautiful. It has so many cool features, the screens are amazing, and the ambient lighting is just so nice. I need it
"It's like someone in a hospital gown turns around!" -- Coffee ejected out of my nose phunny!!
Thank you! It's about time someone called MB out for their uncomfortable interiors. Any luxury saloon at this price range should have soft touch materials throughout (particularly in areas where your knees or arms may rest) instead of hard leather, plastic or metal trims.
I don't think MB cares
@@Daniel-dj7fh
You're right!
I love your intros lol I just watch it for your intros lol
Might get this over a scatpack🔥
The intro video was freakin hilarious! Subbed!
Thanks George, welcome!
That Intro got me 😂
Loved the intro lol
Thomas Waving 👋 in the intro was so adorable lolololol
Boots N Pants it came a bit too naturally to him to hide behind a tree
Bought mine a few months ago. Only critiques: rear headroom, lack of rear usb, seat comfort, apple carplay navi is better, rear sunshade isn’t worth the visibility loss. Aside from that its so much fun to drive. I tend to take the long way home just to enjoy every second of the drive
that intro was hilarious. the wave had me dying!
What a beautiful car. For folks who only have occasional back seat passengers, the sloping “coupe” roof line probably wouldn’t worry much about rear seat headroom.
Great video!
Keep up the good work gents! #roadto1M
You just can't hate the intros 🔥 🔥 🔥
I also was not a fan of the 1st gen but recently the modern ones have grown on me. Especially the AMG V8's
That Intro got me!!! 😀
I loved the intro 😂!
That intro! LOL. You earned a sub.
Just amazing !! imma buy one
I watch this over Magazines like Top Gear. Great channel man.
please do the LC 500 or RC F
Thanks! We really want to drive both of those. I’m positive you will see them in a video this year.
Hilarious intro. One more to a thousand likes!
I actually prefer this gen CLS to the current gen E Class.
Such a gorgeous car
Beautiful car
a masterpiece of Mercedes that's the least I can say .. well done great review mates..
Huss Salman thanks Huss!
That sidestep and wave had me crying laughing. Well done boys
Canadian humor is top notch. Got me down here in Texas cracking up. 😂😂😂😂
i love ur intros
HAHAHAHA! The Intro ... Thank you for the laugh before the awesome review =)
Oh, and the cute beagle!
I don't think there are enough, 2 guys reviewing cars on UA-cam in Ontario (cough thestraightpipes ). I think we need more. Lol
I got the seat bolsters in my 06 E...love em
Is it just me, or did Mercedes design front headlights that remind me of a newer mustang GT?
The intro always gets me 😂😂
This may replace my E, Just saw one of these lowered with same wheels all black simply breathtakingly. I just wish the panoramic roof where available on these.
That intro is lit
Sad that AMG GT 4 Door Coupe lessened its prestige Nice review
Love the video guys! Just amazing work. I always thought the first and second gen CLS were beautiful. This new one is hideous. What is with that upward whale tail? Weirdly it sounds like this is more about the driving than the looks which I think is the opposite of the prior gens. Very interesting
Blake Swan thanks Blake. Yeah the styling is divisive. But from inside, it’s a wonderful experience
its amazing i didnt expect that
Really nice looking car and the engine sounds awesome in power delivery methods... the auto bolsters in the SL something I drove like 3-4 yrs ago were “oh cool, that’s new” but seems like it would annoy me pretty fast.
evanescent03 fortunately they are adjustable. I had them at max setting just for the novelty. But yeah potentially could get old
LOL at the massage awkwardness. But this car really is amazing. My only gripes are regarding the lackluster rear end styling, and CLA-esq front end styling. But what a package for the money.
The next bulletproof German 2JZ? Love the sound of a good straight 6
😹😹”I have this massive revitalization going on right now”
Gonna buy one..... 😃 I'm 15 and this is my dream car.
Just saw this video recommended (I watched it when it was your latest video) and it made me think, how many new CLS’ have I seen in the UK? I genuinely don’t think I’ve seen ANY. Coming from a guy who see’s Ferrari’s, Lamborghini’s and other exotica very frequently.
The soundtrack 👌🏼
