They liked it but, it seems to me that this C63 is aimed at different costumers then the one that will choose new M3(ouch, not very good sentence...).

First, autobox is good but, not very good. Second, C63 is heavy. Third, in straight line C63 is only marginally(if so..) faster then new M3. In curves or on the track it has no chance against M3. Fourth, steering seems remote control like to AMS stuff...

IMHO C63 needs optional 030 Performance Package(19", LSD, different chassis setup) and 280km/h limiter(also an option). Only then it is an interesting car but, with full specs it is around 15000Euro more expensive then similary speced M3(also with 280km/h limit option).

Oh, C63 engine is a monster!



Thank you Kreso, some interesting statistics here.
- It will reach the 250 kph limiter at 6k rpm in fifth gear, with 1k rpm in fifth gear and two more gears to go...
- It's about as heavy as a BMW M5
- Judging by this diagram it has 450 nm from idle (1k rpm), very impressive
