2018 Mercedes-AMG GLC63/GLC63 S Coupe: There’s a Fastback One, Too
– The lovely C-class-based Mercedes-Benz GLC-class SUV started things off last year, and it was quickly joined earlier this year by the fastback GLC-class “coupe.” Both then added AMG-fettled GLC43 variants. It was only a matter of time, however, before the hooligans in Affalterbach would stuff their prodigious twin-turbocharged 4.0-liter V-8 under the GLC’s hood. […]
