I can tell pretty easily because I ignore the purists and measure the car up to its modern-day competitors, such as a CLA45, with which it competes very well.
The C450 competes well against its modern day competitors too - such as the S4/S5, 340i/440i, among others. Changing the name to C43 won't make it compete any more favorably, but it will make some people think it does, including some who posted in this thread which you can see plainly from the tone of those particular posts.
