CAR HAS NOW SOLD
Welcome to Ian's Mercedes Benz C32 AMG!
We like to call this, the AMG the world has forgotten (or never knew to begin with). Those 3 letters hold such strong meaning, but when you hear AMG you tend to think, C63, A45, V8, right? we would like to introduce to AMG's first ever V6, with a supercharger bolted on top!
Our experience with AMG here at Accelerate has been 99% V8. So we were thrilled & intrigued when Ian presented us the opportunity to experience his beautiful example of the widely unknown German muscle car.
We were pleasantly surprised by the C32 for many reasons, one of which was how well Ian has tastefully modified his. From the smaller supercharger pulley, to the custom exhaust that let's that V6 sing, we know you are going to love it!
So sit back, & enjoy this rare AMG gem that certainly has Accelerate's approval!

I picked up an 02 back in May for 7k with 135k miles and it's been absolutely perfect so far, I can't name a better bang for your buck car on the market period!
You are right, for the money they are a great package! Muscle car AND a comfy cruiser 👌
Thank you for watching!

Was there much rust on the car ?
@@dirtydan6343 It has some 2x2in spots at the door corners but if i wanted to i could have that fixed no problem
Sounds great! I just picked up a 2004 BMW 645Ci 4.4 V8 with 129k on the clock, amazing condition and spec for £4k!! Plus came with a V8 custom plate! There's some mad bargains out there 👍
Is it actually reliable? And how are parts you know how German cars are on this side of the continents in the west are they truly worth it cus I'm looking at one rn
unfortunately there are not many left of the c32 amg. best v6 compressor ever built
You are right unfortunately, I can't remember the last time I saw one before Ian's
Thank you for watching!

I'm in my estate C32 3 years as my daily driver. Have loved it so far, been totally reliable and only had 1 issue that made me worry which was w203 platform issue not AMG related so fixed at home. Rips along when you want but cruises effortlessly most of the time. Doesn't get any attention either way which I love! Tipped over 100k so sorting underside and full suspension this month. These are great, rare and understated cars. Good video boys. And the owner has done a cracking job underneath!!
It definitely needs a LSD as open diff isy main issue. Even the box is fine once you work with it. Quafe diff is my target this year funds allowing. Completely sorts the car and even improves 0-60 times due to the increased traction. Best mod for these I can find.
I would love an estate; talk an incredible all round car!
Thank you for watching!

That supercharger whine... I had two Crossfire SRT-6's with the same engine. I miss that sound.
The noise is intoxicating.
Thanks
Ken
Oh how we love a supercharge whine on this channel :) Great video as usual guys smashing it!!
I don't think anything can top your supercharger whine dude! Lol
Appreciate the support as always! 🙏
- Drew
Lucky enough to have one of the 200 on the road …I daily mine …proper sleeper … 400+ super… fun every day 😊
Nice! That has to be one of the coolest daily drivers! 👏
- Drew
Grate video it amazing how many different cars you get to experience doing this
We are so lucky dude! It's hard work but when get to drive cars like this, makes it all worth it!
Appreciate the support as always!
- Drew
Just bought a 2002 C32 with only 60000km on it, zero rust. Looking forward to this summer 😎
Lovely car,thanks for the video.
Glad you enjoyed it.
Thanks
Ken
That year model span is my favorite from Mercedes. Class C, E and S are phenomenal. I especially love the E
I bought this car five years ago in really bad shape but I restore him and he shining again. Great and still cheap car to drive and have fun with. Buy him if you can because one day will be expensive I think.
I think a lot of them have been neglected over the years, it is hard to find a good one.
If I had the money I would buy this one! This car really surprised the both of us! A fun muscle car AND a comfy cruiser, what more could you want!
Thank you for watching!
- Drew
Back with the C32 👍🏼👍🏼 amazing cars
It really surprised us in fairness!
- Drew
Great car! I had mine for almost 4 years now, and have done every bolt on modification there is from NeedsWings. I can truly recommend both the manifolds and intake manifolds. It just becomes a whole other car when these are added. The bottom end torque is relentless :)
There really are great cars!
Kenny & I were both generally surprised by it. We were both expecting a lazy, numb drive, but it was quite the opposite; very eager & playful...and the noise 🤤
Thank you for watching!
- Drew
@@accelerateyoutubecan I ask you more about Mercedes and other cars?
My SLK32 is coming up on 100k miles. I got it with 85k miles and did a needswings cold air, secondary cat delete, and v tech tune. Im scared to do more serious upgrades such as a pulley. Yours has been reliable with FBO for years?
That sounds insane!
The editing on this 👌 fairplay drew
Wow, thank you dude! 😊 the weather/lighting was against us but we made it work 😉
Appreciate the support as always man!
- Drew
That sounds insane! What a machine Kenny and Drew still no BMW though 🤣🤣👍 more brilliant editing even if Wales has been -5🥶 for the last two weeks lol keep the videos coming thanks John 😁🏴
😂 we will make it our mission is 2023 to get some more Beamers on for you dude lol
Thanks man! The weather/lighting was certainly against us, but we made it work 👌
Appreciate the support as always!
- Drew
@@accelerateyoutube 🤣thanks Drew👍
I own a C32 and the worst thing about it is the sound.
I had a C32 AMG estate for a couple of years and I absolutely loved it. I sold it for a CLS55 AMG and yes that is soo much faster having been tuned to over 600bhp but the little C32 was much more fun to drive. You could throw it into corners and it would always put a smile on my face. The CLS will probably go around the corners faster but god it doesn't feel right doing it. The CLS is a straight line monster whereas the C32 is a good all-rounder
I actually picked one up a few weeks ago and generally in good condition. Looking forward to bring it up to snuff (power steering leak) then start modding it. It feels super comfy
Congratulations! They really are great cars. I wasn't expecting too much as it wasn't a V8 AMG, but boy was I wrong!
They are comfy when needed, then very quick when needed!
Thank you for watching!
- Drew
i have an 04 C32 in dark blue with 333,333 kms on the clock, bought in 2019 for $4500 transmission is smooth as and runs sweet, few electrical like drivers heated seat doesnt work and head rest is stuck in highest position, have only had to do general maintenance on it so far, fun car in a straight line, handles a bit stiff on corners but a fast car none the less! not for sale btw 😄
Any common problems with the c32 amg looking to buy one?
Thanks
I wouldn’t say it’s forgotten. Most people don’t know about this car in general. Also most people want a V8. But I agree this C32 is a mean machine. Especially for the price. It can EASILY keep up with modern sports cars. With the right tune it does over 300 km/h as well. Unfortunately most C32 here in Germany are station wagons not limousines.
You are absolutely right! When people think AMG, they think V8. I wasn't expecting much from the C32, but it really wowed us!
I think the station wagons may be even cooler! All that perfomance with the practicality too!
Thank you for watching!
- Drew
The W212 generation E-class shares a very similar front suspension to these W203 C-classes.
Belle vidéo 👌 😉
Thank you as always my friend! 🙏
- Drew 🇨🇵🏴
@@accelerateyoutube👍 🏴 🇫🇷 👍
I've been playing with a few E55 AMG V8 supercharged, separating the and upgrading the intercooler cooling radiators, VRP intakes and 9
6mm throttle body and smaller super charger gear with belt rap fit and a tune and these things are really rapid (The 2 105mm throttle bodies that we have used both failed)
Wow, that sounds interesting!
The E55s are great! Kenny's E55 was a great example, it was so comfy and went like stink!
- Drew
Looks faster than the r32 golf
Has Ian sold it? I’m looking for one of these, used to work for Mercedes when these were just a couple of years old and drove one then. Have wanted one ever since!
Yes, it sold rather quickly after video went live lol
I'll be honest, I wasn't expecting too much from it, but boy was I wrong! Such an underrated car!
- Drew
I own a 03 c 32 T . The first thing i do was ,to put a c 180 emblem on my trunk . This car is so much fun to drive and mine had no electric probs. It makes me happy every time i am driving it but i know, it makes some people feeling very bad. Like the cayman S driver last week . I hope he felt better now and i hope in the meantime, his pillow is dry when he wakes up . Great video guys , greetings from germany.
Sounds sweet mate
It certainly does!
- Drew
where did you get your dual cold air intake??
I’ve got a Chrysler Crossfire SRT6.
Pretty sure it has the same engine. Am I correct? Great engine. Love the supercharger ‘whine’.
Yes, same as the SRT6 Crossfire.
Crossfire engine is detuned
i have it but avantgarde stage 2 it’s beautifull
Bouta buy one for 2700 with 189,000km. Can’t wait man!
2,700??? That's crazy!
I would be buzzing if I were you, congrats!
- Drew
It’s a total sleeper, but indestructible as always Mercedes 🤌🏼
I’m watching this sitting in my c240. Man I want it so bad
It really suprised us how good it actually was. Do it! You will not be disappointed.
Thanks
Ken
My dad's just loaned me his... now i want him to sell it to me 😂😂😂 really fun to drive
My friend used to have old c43 amg
Had one of these until about 10 years ago. Did have its issues. Rusted around the wheel arches and electrical faults. Id forgive it all that though it's probably the car ive most enjoyed owning.
Seem to be common weak points in fairness. Ian owned his a while, and he would completely agree with you! They are fantastic cars!
We get to drive a lot of cars, and this one surprised us!
Thank you for watching!
- Drew
Never been a fan of this generation c class but being an amg makes it appealing although would never pick one over a e36 m3 or e46 m3
I almost picked one up a few years ago. Big mistake on my part for not doing it. 😥
I have an ‘02 model down in Australia, stock 125K km. I can relate to the electrical gremlins….. they just keep on popping up😂. But it always puts a smile on my dial
All worth it in the end 👌
Mines on 230,000 km in Victoria… cost of ownership kills me but it’s all forgotten once I turn that key 😊
Wow, that's interesting hearing a view from the other side of the world!
Ian said the majority of the gremlins are caused by the degradation of the wiring loom (big weakness apparently)
He's the same, it was a nightmare on times, but he LOVES it!
Thank you for watching!
- Drew
@@MrSlowAZZ 😂 Ian says the same, he has spent a small fortune getting this car right, but he still LOVES it!
Thank you for watching!
- Drew
Buongiorno avrei 2 domande
Perché non compreresti una C63?
Cosa intendi quando dici che la w204 ha lo sterzo troppo pesante?
Ti rigrazio per le risposte
P.S. c'è talmente tanta differenza tra telaio e motori della w203 e telaio e motore w204 che diventano imparagonabili, però i gusti son gusti
I am interested in this! Is it still about for sale?
It sold rather quickly Unfortunately.
Thank you for watching!
- Drew
I have an SLK 32 AMG, little 2 seat sports car with the same engine. Very rare, very fast, nice to drive.
What type of pump
Budget AMG be like in 2000s🥵
Theres just something about this era 👌.
Thanks
Ken
Hey is it still available?
It sold rather quickly I'm afraid.
Thank you for watching!
- Drew
Great video 👌👍
I’ve got a 03 plate C32 AMG sitting on my driveway…No MOT….little bit of body rust on one rear arch….£1500 if anyone is interested?
Bought as a project but just not got time 😢
I'm interested, what's the best way to contact you?
@scottlidsay5747 is this still available?
Hi mate
Yes it is…it’s going on eBay next week so yes still sat on my driveway!
@@scottlindsay5747 I don't recall seeing this on eBay. Did you list it?
I've had my 2002 for 10 years ,hardly used it but will never part with it.
I own one 😀
Very lucky!
- Drew
We need more video in this car but traction off
If it wasn't a rainy day and if I had my big boy pants on we might have had a go. But with how rare these cars are getting we didn't want to push our luck 😂
Thank you for watching!
- Drew
@@accelerateyoutube it is dangereous when traction is off
ANY MANUEL MODELS IN THESE ??? 👌
The nouiyse
😂 it is an audible work of art!
Thank you for watching!
- Drew
the real forgotten amg is the c30 cdi amg
Picked up a c32 2001 last year for £3800 . 132,000 .
Anyone point me in the right direction for a Mercedes specialist . Few gremlins need sorting .
Great little AMG this is. Very surprised by it
A-men! 🙏
