I'll take that as a yes then. Driving emotions? Thats a new one. I seriously doubt any car here drives like crap. So you're shallow if you want to like how you car looks as opposed to having a "high reving engine".

haha merc, you are unbelivable. No cars drive like crap, even Volvo C30 drives well.
If you are looking for another 3 pages discussions with arguments you should talk to Eni. You two seem to love that

Sorry but I have to go back to work. Its a new lovely day here in Sweden.

I don't know what you're talking about. I just asked a simple question, yet you so convinced of something much broader a conspiracy or something.

I just find it interesting that other peoples preferences are shallow, like styling, but wanting "driving emotion" isn't. Seems to imply that other other cars aren't capable of giving one "driving emotion", is what I'm addressing when I said no other car here drives like crap.

C'mon just me...the C63 and any other car on this list has enough "emotions" to make most of us sweat on track. As for buying a car for it's looks. Well no shit. I don't care how fast it goes, but you wouldn't see me driving a turd around town. LOL

If owning something beautiful makes me shallow than I'm shallow as hell.

I wrote a comment about shallow and hell breakes lose. To me design and how a car is to drive is two different things. Maybe you can use the word shallow when it comes to driving as well. I dont know but to me shallow is about beauty. "Shallow Hall" with Frank Black is a fun movie by the way.
I'll will be driving the C63 in September and will give you my impressions.
I already driven the new M3 and as a total package the car is wonderful. Engine, balance , steering, handling and road feel is awesome.
C63 is a great machine as well but on its own way. As told before I will be driving C63 in September and I will let you know if I like it as good as I like the M3.

But for now M3 gets my vote mostly becuase how the car is to drive

I havent said otherwise Naruto I never said C63 is a boring car, heck I can have fun with a Volvo C30 as well.

When will you be driving the new M3?

I didn't say thats what you're saying. I was just trying to get a point across. Sorry if I came off as an ass.

As for the M3. If everything works out correctly...on June 10th....I can't wait!

Saying you prefer a car for the way it drives is much better than saying that someone who likes styling is shallow.


Can't wait to read your impressions of the C63.
