Chief what model is this if I may ask? Looks sharp and definitely good choice of colour.

GLC 300 Coupe C253. This is not my first choice of colour because my GLA 250 is also obsidian black.

I wanted brilliant blue but the wait is even longer as Hap Seng don't have it in their inventory list, need special order.

From personal opinion, it's definitely much comfortable as compared to my GLA250. As many mentioned, Merc for luxury while BMW for performance. I don't speed a lot thus Merc provide what I need and for the GLC300 Coupe, we don't see a lot of these on the road therefore it's unique in it's own way, a beauty to look at.

Adequate trunk space and comfy ride. Quite a smart car since it comes with Mercedes Me App where you can remote control via mobile phone. One thing that caught my attention, when lowering rear seats, the front passenger & driver seats will automatically shift forward so there's no obstruction.

Go for test drive since you already shortlisted 2 of them.

Was at Sungei Besi BMW earlier to view the latest X5 hybrid, priced at RM440K, around 340 horsepower. Was in a rush thus never go for test drive. Saw a black X5 ready for collection, the owner went for few upgrades including Matt black rims and glossy black kidney grille, black on black combination looks stunning.

Sat in the car for some observation, the interior itself still have a long way to go as compared to Merc. I do like the 4 aircon vents for rear passengers, able to lower the trunk's height via air suspension for ease of unloading. Personally it fits my requirement as I need to ferry around 200kg worth of stuff 2-3 times a week and this feature is good, not forgetting the lower tail board can be lay flat.

Thanks I tried the GLC Coupe, generally it offers luxury driving experience. Love the sound system.
Not manage to try X4 as they don't even have a showroom/demo unit here in Kuching Sarawak..

You may wanna lookout for forums where owners share discussion on issues relating to their ride for GLC SUV/COUPE & BMW X4.

Which forums?
This thread so far doesn't mention issues with the GLC I think

You can post any question in this FB group.

There's a WhatsApp group dedicated for Malaysia's GLC owners. With regards to BMW, I'm not sure, try search using keywords such as "BMW X4 2020 discussion forum".

There's several feedback of wind/road noise from GLC SUV owners. This model came with RFT tires, same goes to my GLA, the tire noise is terrible and makes the ride really stiff. Some owners had raise complaints to C&C, several of them had their windows & windscreen replaced with acoustic glass panels.

Unlike the SUV, GLC Coupe is equipped with Non-RFT tires. After driving for it 2 months, the cabin noise is relatively quiet with speed above 120km/h.

Turbine air vents arrived after a month of waiting. Had it installed yesterday, happy with the outcome.
