Pretty neat.

I was impressed by the 43amg unit... this should be a different animal all together.

I would still take the Macan Turbo

+1. I would be nervous if one pulled up next to me at light. All that power and AWD...will be a rocket.

I am still tempted to buy the GLC43 as a daily with all seasons. I don't enjoy the M3 in rain or sub 50 degree whether. Just not sure if it will be a poor complement to the M3.

The GLC63 would be a nice all in one. I am not worried if it's not a great track vehicle but I would miss manual and drifts.

I'm thinking about trading my Macan GTS in for this GLC63. My decision is mostly due to the lack of rear seat leg room on the Macan otherwire I'd probably go Macan Turbo.

Or maybe the Porsche Sport Turismo. Even though it's not a sports car I love it for some reason.

The 4Matic+ will be awesome on this car, it can send all the power to the rear wheels or all 4. I'm glad I held off on buying a GLC43 for this, hopefully won't have to wait too long til it's available stateside.

I read the S is 3.7 sec 0-60, is there a quicker SUV from factory? That is stupid quick.

Unfortunately it sounds like here in the States we can only get the S in coupe form.

The GLC3 is definitely on my radar to replace my wife's X5. Also anticipating the X3M, but the new X3 better look better than currently.

So sexy.

Tesla Model X P100D is 2.8 seconds (the P90D is 3.2 sec). That said, I would MUCH rather have the GLC63. The thing looks so effing mean!

I think a GLC43 would be an excellent companion for an M3.

The only thing is the tires. Tire Rack says the OE tire is the Goodyear Eagle Sport All-Season RFT. The stock sizes are 255/45-20 front and 285/40-20 rear, and that's literally the only tire available in those sizes on Tire Rack.

Even with a good UHP all-season non-RFT tire (personally I love the BFG Comp-2 A/S that I put on my wife's car) you're looking at very wide tires which will be marginal in winter, if that's what you're hoping to have the GLC43 do well at.

You are right. I thought the 4matic+ was limited to the E63.

The GLC Coupe turned out a lot nicer than the X4.

So did everything short of the Aztek.
