2020 MERCEDES-BENZ AMG C 43 4MATIC

The vehicle is a 2020 Mercedes-Benz AMG C 43 Coupe with a 3.0-liter, six-cylinder gasoline engine, a nine-speed automatic transmission, and rear-wheel drive information not provided by the VIN decode. It was manufactured in Germany. The auction lists the vehicle as salvage with “Front End” as the primary damage classification. Stage 1 reports that the visible evidence supports the unverified Front End claim, citing extensive front-end deformation and missing components. Stage 1 also notes that salvage status cannot be confirmed from the photos alone. The front end has severe collision damage. The hood is deeply creased and folded across the front-left and center areas, with a collapsed front edge and torn sections around the center-front emblem. The front bumper cover, grille, lower fascia, air-inlet trim, and both headlamp assemblies are missing from their mounting positions. The removed bumper assembly and both headlamps are shown detached from the vehicle. The exposed front structure includes brackets, wiring, cooling components, reinforcement areas, and lower plastic pieces. Multiple sections of the visible radiator/condenser cooling fins are crushed and bent. The condition of the underlying reinforcement, cooling system, wiring, sensors, engine-bay components, and other structural parts cannot be determined from the supplied findings. A physical inspection and diagnostic assessment will be required to identify any additional damage and determine the vehicle’s running and roadworthiness status. Minor surface scuffing and abrasion marks are also reported on the rear bumper and lower trunk-area surfaces.
