2022 Porsche 718 Cayman vs. 2022 Mercedes-Benz AMG C 43

The Porsche 718 Cayman and the Mercedes-Benz AMG C 43 are two cars that have been known for their ability to go head-to-head with each other for years. Both are mid-range sports cars that offer a lot of fun without breaking the bank. The way they're designed makes them stand out from the crowd, but it's important to know what sets these vehicles apart from one another before making a decision on which one is right for you!

Design & Style

• Exterior Design

If you're looking for a car that's stylish and sporty, the Porsche 718 Cayman and Mercedes-Benz AMG C 43 are both great choices. The Porsche 718 Cayman has sleek lines on its exterior design, while the Mercedes-Benz AMG C 43 has sharp edges on its exterior design.

Both cars have an appealing look from every angle thanks to their sleek designs and contours. The wide grille of each vehicle makes it easy to distinguish between them even when they're parked next to each other.

• Interior Design

The 718 Cayman has an interior that's more comfortable and spacious. That's not to say the AMG C 43 is cramped, but it does have some shortcomings in this regard.

The front seats are a bit tighter than those found in other vehicles of this class and the headroom can be challenging if you're taller than six feet tall. The rear seats offer decent legroom, but they are still tight - especially for adults who are six feet or taller.

There is more cargo space behind the rear seats with a large flat floor, but it isn't as easy to access because there aren't any small compartments like you would find on some other coupes like the Porsche 911 Carrera or Audi TT RS.

Technology & Safety

Both the Porsche 718 Cayman and Mercedes-Benz AMG C 43 come with a long list of standard features. While they both offer convenience and safety technology, there are some differences.

• Porsche Connect is available in all trims, while Mercedes' MBUX infotainment system is only available on top trims such as the S 63 4MATIC Coupe or Cabriolet (and no other model).
• The 718 Cayman comes standard with HD Radio and satellite radio, while the C 43 gives you those same options plus an enhanced version of MBUX called "Driver Profile Selector." This lets you tailor your car's settings based on whether it's going to be driven by a child or if that child will be sitting in the rear seats for more than 5% of its total miles driven per year-this info is stored on your key fob so that it can be accessed via Bluetooth without having to unlock & enter your vehicle as well! Both cars also have voice control capabilities for navigation commands but only if using Apple CarPlay/Android Auto apps from their respective stores (Windows Phone users may download them separately).

Performance

The 718 Cayman has a 4.0L engine, which is capable of producing 335 hp and 309 lb-ft of torque. It can go from 0 to 60 mph in 4.5 seconds and has a top speed of 170 mph. This engine delivers good fuel economy at 16/23 mpg city/highway.

The Mercedes-AMG C 43 comes equipped with a twin-turbocharged 3.0-liter V6 that produces 386 horsepower at 6,100 rpm and 384 lb.-ft of torque.

The Bottom Line

If you're looking for the best sports car, look no further than the 2022 Porsche 718 Cayman. The 2022 Mercedes-Benz AMG C 43 is also an excellent choice and might be better suited to your needs if you require more power or room for passengers. However, if you're looking for something that offers more value on the market today and doesn't have the luxury of waiting until 2022, then go with the 2022 Porsche 718 Cayman.
