Nice read, still haven't changed my mind on the M3.

HaHaHa, that is hilarious This must be the first

Anyway, if you want a Coupé well then C63 isnt an option and who wants a CLK63? Not me, its not even in the same league as C63.
Does the M3 have any niggles?

Re: First Drive MB C63 AMG - Car Magazine - 08-27-2007, 02:50 PM

kinda biased article IMO.

First of all, he mentions the official M3 acceleration time and than says that the C63 will do near to 4.0 in real life, but hey, the same goes for the M3.

Second, he mentions the C63 doesn't come with all kinds of settings "unlike some rivals, I'm assuming M3, but hey at the end he says the C63 doesn't ride as comfortable as the M3, which because of those settings, can be set to a harsher more sporty ride. Sounds like a good thing to me

meh, that article was hardly informative to say the least....

My prediction is still C63>M3 (On a track and a straight).

like I said stay ontopic. Its an old test, check out internal combustion. Now continue discussing C63.
