such a strong competitor to the x4! :drool:

That's a lot of leg room unless the fronts are moved up for midgets.

GLC43 pics will be uploaded in a bit. It looks awesome.

Really digging that GLC43 :hitit: any idea of projected pricing?

[dj_rice]

Oh yayyy more models I need to learn about

[dibbz]

GLC43 AMG is now on the Canadian configurator. Actually every option seems similar to the GLC300 except for a few AMG interior options. My optioned out one comes to $75K :(

Considering my GLA came out to the same price, that's not exactly terrible haha.

[dibbz]

Haha I guess then it should be pretty good pricing. I'll have to see the GLC43 up close to see if I like the looks. Maybe the new SQ5 will look good, but I don't really like the new style of the Q5 so far. Might just wait for that S5 Sportback!

[rage2]

I'm not a fan of the GLC43 (to be fair, I'm not a fan of SUVs period) but the GLC43 coupe looks great mainly because it doesn't look like a SUV.

[Mitsu3000gt]

I am the opposite haha, don't like any of these SUV "coupes" (or the X6) but that GLC 43 looks awesome.

Those damn screens look like they are here to stay from everyone :rofl:

I guess we could say everyone copied Mercedes at this point lol.

No. They are not.

Expect this to land in C class in 2018 and GLC probably shortly after that.

It looks nice but 75K plus for a nicely equipped one:( I think at that price point there are other options available.

Haha it's true. Damn. When I drove the new C-class again it didn't bother me as much after a while, but I would still rather have the option to fold away into the dash or something.

That would be nice. Even better are retractable screens for the best of both worlds - you'd think the Germans would love to engineer something like that haha.

What happens to these entire-LCD dashboards when the car has been parked outside in -30 weather all night? Do they even work while your car is warming up?

[JustinMCS]

I got it to $86,814.00 for a full load. Damn.

Although I baby my cars, I did leave them outside urban area in the open where it hit -30c. Screen refreshes slows a bit but it's totally usable. And that was a 2010 model.

And I assume you won't operate in -30c interior for long, once car warm up, it's no difference.

[rage2]

My old C63 was parked outside a lot when I lived in Renfrew for a bit there. And ya, the screen has some ghost trails while it warms up but it works fine. Can't say for sure if the newer screens are better in cold weather.

AMG seats was on the config last I checked. Now it seems to be replaced with AMG steering wheel which it wasn't there before.

The web config tools is never accurate anyway. The C450 got AMG seats mid model year. The website was never updated to show that.

[cycosis]

I noticed the seats are an option for the c 43 so I thought it was odd
