TCC’s Bottom Line

The 2020 Jaguar F-Type is gorgeous, fun, and available in a wide range of personalities.

The 2020 Mercedes-Benz SLC-Class sings a pretty swan song—and you can hear it even when the top’s down.

TCC Likes

Stunning exterior design
Ride and handling balance
Raucous V-6 and V-8 available

SLC 43 is a true sports car
Foldable hard-top refinement
More affordable SL-Class

TCC Dislikes

Very expensive, very fast
Turbo-4 sounds less refined
Interior showing its age

Not being replaced after 2020
Tight for tall or wide drivers
SLC 300 is not as fun as it should be
