Welcome to the C3. AMG, the latest automotive thrill ride from Mercedes- Benz. By packing 3. 49 horsepower into a 3,5. Mercedes has turned the otherwise sterile C- Class sedan into a hooligan ready to riot at a Germany- UK soccer match. Drive one, and you'll need to buckle up tight and keep your arms inside the vehicle at all times. Oh, and please, no barfing on the seats. The C3. 2 joins the CLK5.
SLK3. 2, E5. 5, S5. CL5. 5 and the ML5.
AMG stable. AMG, Mercedes' in- house tuning division, is given the mission to expand the performance envelope of Mercedes products while still providing high levels of technology, refinement and luxury. It is based in Affalterbach (near Stuttgart) and has responsibility for all its own development processes relating to engines, drivetrain, suspension, brakes, aerodynamics, interior and design. With its $5. 1,6. C3. 2 is the least expensive 2.
AMG product. It's also, for the first time in high- performance C- Class history, a true match to its nemesis, the BMW M3. And while we didn't have an M3 around for direct comparison, we're confident in saying that the new C3. M3. On the outside, the C3. The front features an aggressively styled chin with a lower mesh grille and foglights, while the rear and sides get extra aerodynamic add- ons. The trunk lid is marked with AMG and C3. V6 Kompressor badge on the front left fender. Most striking are the 1.
AMG twin- spoke wheels, a welcome stylistic change from the more typical Monoblock AMG wheels. To find out what the C3. During the production run of the previous C- Class generation, there were two performance models — the C3.
C4. 3 (AMG products are traditionally given only two numerals, as opposed to a standard Mercedes vehicle's three). Despite having less engine displacement and two fewer cylinders than the V8- powered C4. C3. 2 is a step up in terms of power.
The usual Mercedes black plastic engine shroud has been removed, revealing a compact 1. V6 like the C3. 20's. But that is where the similarity ends. Snuggled up between the two cylinder banks is a belt- driven supercharger.
Thanks to this hot- rodding piece of hardware, the C3. Corvette owner would be impressed by. At 6,1. 00 rpm (also the vehicle's redline), the C3.
There's also plenty of grunt; a healthy 3. So endowed, the C3. Stand on the throttle from a stop, and the car launches quicker than an Internet rumor about Jennifer Lopez's sex life. There's no waiting or windup; the car simply goes. With so much power available, the rear tires frequently lose grip even when the front wheels are pointed straight. This causes the stern traction control system to step in and squash the wheelspin party. Boo! Turning off the traction control nets the best acceleration times.
We recorded a 0- to- 6. This isn't as fast as Mercedes' claimed 4. After some analysis, we think the C3. SLK3. 2 we tested posted a 4.
As the C3. 2 and SLK3. C3. 2's slower times were due to the poor traction conditions in which we tested.
The C3. 2's intercooled helical- type supercharger was jointly developed with IHI, a Japanese company known for turbocharger and supercharger applications. Mercedes says the supercharger can generate up to 1.
The supercharger also features an electromagnetic coupling that allows the supercharger to disengage during partial load conditions. With the supercharger disengaged, the engine operates purely as a normally aspirated engine, thereby reducing fuel consumption, exhaust emissions and noise. To bolster the V6 for the times when the extra atmosphere of pressure is applied, AMG equips the engine with tougher connecting rods, pistons, valve springs, camshafts and crankshaft. It also lowers the compression ratio to 9.
Thanks to a tuned exhaust system, the V6 produces a deeper and throatier sound. Superchargers typically produce a whining sound, but in this application, AMG has muffled it enough so that most owners won't notice. During the development of the C3. Mercedes says it considered a variety of different engines, including a V8. In the end, its engineers found that the supercharged V6 could produce just as much power as the V8 while being more compact, thereby having positive effects on weight distribution and vehicle crash behavior. The V6 transfers its power to the rear wheels via a five- speed automatic transmission.
Keep the wheels straight and plant the throttle, and the C3. North Shore wave of acceleration. Each shift is swift, and Mercedes says they are up to 3. C3. 20. For such a fast car, though, it's a strange sensation not to be more connected to the process of gaining velocity. When a car has a good manual transmission, you feel like a part of the action while rowing through the gears and legging the clutch. Much like a horse jockey switching his horse for more speed, operating a manual makes it seem like you're willing the car to go beyond its limits.
No manual transmission is available, but Mercedes has gone to considerable lengths to make this automatic as sporting as possible. Called Speed. Shift, it has a lockup clutch for every gear above first, thereby reducing torque converter slip and improving engine response. Gearing is taller than in the normal C- Class, but the C3. We've heard a rumor indicating that AMG discreetly removes the limiter for customers in Germany looking for extra thrust to dust off Porsche 9. The result is a top speed of more than 1.
The transmission also has a number of programming features not found on other Mercedes' automatics. For example, if the driver brakes aggressively, the transmission will automatically execute a downshift — useful before taking a bend in brisk fashion, for example. At a certain level of lateral acceleration, the transmission also maintains the same gear through the entire bend, maximizing chassis stability and allowing the driver to accelerate out of the corner quickly. Leaving the transmission in drive is perhaps the best option, as the manual mode doesn't give the driver much more control. The manual mode is selected by bumping the lever to the left or right. Only the tiny and hard- to- read gear indicator on the gauge display tells the driver what gear has been selected.
Even if a gear is manually selected, the transmission will automatically shift if redline is reached. We also noticed that attempts at short shifting using the manual mode are futile as the programming assumes the driver wants redline shifts at anything more than half throttle. These are minor points, however, and the auto hardly detracts from the fun generated by driving the C3.
It is certainly the most maneuverable and tossable AMG sedan. Over the standard C3. C3. 2 gains a lower ride height, reconfigured spring and shock tuning, thicker antiroll bars, and larger wheels and tires.
The twin- spoke wheels are wrapped with 2. R1. 7 Pirelli P Zero Rosso tires at the front and 2. R1. 7s in the rear. After just a few corners, it's readily apparent that this isn't your regular Mercedes sedan. Body roll is kept to a minimum, and the Rosso tires grip predictably. The C3. 2 can be pushed to impressive speeds, indeed.
Understeer is the dominant handling state, but oversteer can be induced with the throttle. If the driver exceeds his own limits, the Electronic Stability Control system (ESP) is there to step in. By applying individual brakes or retarding the throttle, ESP can counteract vehicle yaw to help prevent dangerous skids or spins. We didn't find ESP to be overly intrusive, an annoyance we often encounter with Mercedes products.
Should driver stupidity exceed even the ESP's limits, the C3. C- Class vehicles, comes with outboard seatbelt force limiters, front dual- stage airbags, door- mounted front- and- rear side airbags and head- protecting side- curtain airbags. When Mercedes redesigned the C- Class for 2.
It carries into the C3. It is also responsive, but mid- turn bumps and front tire scrub result in uncomfortable kickback and shudder through the steering column, which gets transmitted directly to the driver's hands. For our slalom test, the C3. M3 we tested. Braking is handled by vented and cross- drilled front and rear discs, which measure 1. Pedal feel is progressive, and repeated hammering has no negative affect on stopping ability. Equipped with ABS and Brake Assist, the C3.
In the more normal situations of highway driving or mindless urban rush- hour(s) slog, AMG's baby sedan manages to provide a fairly comfortable ride. Minor road abrasions are soaked up, though the C3. Overall, it's a good compromise, and the C3. One problem: There's no spare tire. In its place, Mercedes provides a tire- inflator kit.
Most other luxury items come standard, such as supple AMG leather seating, sport- bolstered power front seats, a folding rear seat and the 1. Bose sound system. An inexplicable lack of a CD player is the one exception.
If you want one from the factory, you'll need to order the COMAND navigation system or the K2a voice- activated digital phone. Both of these are rather expensive. Other options include a rear power sunshade, rain- sensing wipers, high intensity discharge headlights and special interior trim colors. Order a couple of options, and the C3. This is expensive compared to a Honda Civic, but still quite affordable when other Mercedes go- fast products are considered.
An E5. 5 or S5. 5 are at least $2. For the budget- minded Mercedes sport sedan buyer, the C3.
This could also be the case when the Audi S4 and BMW M3 are considered. The 2. 00. 2 S4, riding on the previous- generation A4 platform and making only 2. And the M3? This is the standard- bearer, yet the C3. The differences lie in the details.
The C3. 2 holds an advantage in versatility thanks to its four doors and automatic transmission. Those who don't want to shift themselves could order BMW's new- for- 2. C3. 2's Speed. Shift. What the M3 does offer is a more intimate connection to the driver.
