Re: EVO: M3 E90 vs C63 Performance Package

C63 for me anyhow, never was concerned about laptimes, Ive said this tons of times and ill say it again, the C63AMG model just like the other recent AMG models since 03 have more than enough track capability, and it just keeps getting better and more hardcore..Moreover, the C63 IMO looks tons better than the M3 and sportier for the first time ....


However, I give credit to the M3's brutal track performance, I just think the C63 covers that part well enough, with lots more to it than just that ....

BTW, there are MUCH cheaper cars that drift MUCH better than the C63, some of you are now trying to say the C63 is made for powerslides and the M3 is not....LMAO....

I driven both C63 and E63. After driving both I dont understand how you can still keep your E63 when the mighty C63 is around
C63 owns E63

LoL, I guess i havent been around here as much, well I returned the E just a month ago, (lease was over), first car that lasts with me till return day ..lol, and I ordered a C63 2 months ago, ill be getting it in november, they are sold out and very hard to get a hold of, Palladium silver/black interior ...

I must say, out of all the cars ive owned, the E63 was the best and most reliable, 0 problems, absolutely zero, I loved the power, agility and comfort... Ill miss it for sure...I know the C will be a thriller, cant wait ...

Gee thanks , lol thats funny I just thought about the signature as I was getting to your post ...

Ive gone black on my last 3 cars, I love it, I was just thinking black is too soon for such a fresh new car, I think palladium does the C63 much more justice for now ...

I don't know if you have watched the C63 tracktest I posted in the video section the other day, but P. Simon didn't seem to have many problems controlling the car, in fact it was slightly faster than the M3 E90.

I think it might well be just that. A normal driver never push the car hard enough to discover the faults evident under pressure.

In amost every test this far the M3 is the faster (not in a straight line) and the sharper car of the two. This test is not odd in any way.

Re: EVO: M3 E90 vs C63 Performance Package

This was expected from evo..who are most likely the most sporty mag out there..
Their reviewers know how to drive
The M3 fits them like a glove

Besides that its like others have said, both cars are fast enough..
I pick the C63 cause it looks, sounds and delivers in a more thrilling way..
