Re: [scans] AMS: Mercedes C 63 AMG - TEST -

I expected the car's straight line performance to be a little more vibrant. Not that it isn't mind-crushing as it is, but 0-100 km/h in 4.7? On the other hand, the 0-200 km/h time is a great deal faster than what AMS achieved with the E92 M3 (expectedly though) - 15.7s versus 16.7s respectively.
I do realize it's the C63's first test though. Will definitely wait for more tests.

I don't think anyone buying this car really cares about fuel economy. Just like someone who buys a Ferrari doesn't give a damn about comfort. AMS has a habit of criticizing some aspects that buyers in certain classes most likely don't really care about.
Reading the review at home right now. My AMS always comes late...

I don't have the RS4 test, right now - but of what I can remember, the RS4 got 5 stars and the M3 got also 5 stars (and the fuel consumption was measured with 15 L / 100km)!
OMG...
...just compared both tests:
M3 costs 66650 € - comment of AMS: + fair price
C 63 costs 67235 € - comment of AMS: - high price
