I think this car will be more successful than we think. Let's see, Mercedes doesn't just sell cars to fanatical people like us who are watching this video, in fact the majority of buyers of this car will be successful businessmen who want to have a sports car that looks good, is pleasant to drive and will not ruin the bank account (as the price will be almost half of the v8), and in that matter I think the GT43 checks all of the boxes

A 4cylinder AMG GT will have no market and will be a flop. At this price point most buyers will opt for the (v8) 53 and 63 versions

Assuming a new 43 is $115K a 1-year-old car will probably be around $90K, at that price the 43 makes sense.

People don’t only buy a sports car for the performance. They also buy it for bragging rights, and when they go out for a drive they want to know they have the coolest car on the road. Instead of being proud of it, they are going to be embarrassed and hope no one ever asks them what kind of engine it has. I just can’t see who would save up their hard earned money from years of working to drop 100k+ on a 4 cyl sports car.

nice gt m8 give it a rev , oh 😂 45s is meant to have 4 pot and does its job perfectly, but in the c63 , gt, and the glc is just not right and when they put a v6 in the e63 yes its better but it wont sell like the c63, gt and glc, seems like merc are going in the wrong direction which is a shame 😢

I hate how Mercedes messed up with their naming scheme. Once the number indicated the engine size but they changed it in like 2015. Back then 43 meant 6 cylinders, 45=4 cylinders, 53= straight 6 cylinder, 63= 8 cylinders and 65= 12 cylinders. Now the same 4 cylinder engine is used for the GT43, A45 and C63 while the new CLE53 will have a 6 cylinder engine although the SL/GT53 have a V8.

With less weight from motor and no front diff this would drive awesome. I think its a good move. Its just another option anyway

I’m brand loyal but Amg are not going to sell cars with 4cyl engines ,while BMW are cleaning up just look at the amount of Competition cars on the roads some body needs to face reality in Affalterbach there are no new C63’s on the roads Simple.

No matter how much power can be squeezed out of a 4 cylinder, it will never have the sound and presence of a V8. The V8 is an easy win.

Mercedes are getting it wrong far too often , no sales of the C63 worldwide, CLE53 going to be a better seller than the CLE63 and now a GT43 without a V6 !! doesn't fit well with me but then Porsche did alright with 716 etc in sales terms

@@ABAUTOAMG You are not kidding, I’d rather have the CLA 45 which is priced about right, i can’t see many people spending that amount of money on a 4 pot even though its a great engine anything over 80k in my opinion needs a 3 litre 6 cylinder. It’s a nice looking car but its not the V8 and to be fair the V8 is 170k which is a lot of money.
