C63 AMG Coupe as a daily driver?

Hey guys, does anyone currently own a C63 AMG sedan? I was wondering how the C63 coupe would be to live with every day. Other than the gas mileage, are there any major complaints about the C63? I am considering either the coupe version of the C63 or the S5, except the S5 can't go 0-60 in 3.8 seconds...

Im pretty sure the C63 Coupe would be fine. Better than an M3 or an RS5

It'll be great as a DD. It's like all the AMG/M/RS cars - family cars with bulging fenders and an overpowerful engine. Let's be honest, they aren't really sportscars. I know the sedan is perfect so why not the coupe, if you don't need someone in the backseat on regular basis. Just be sure to pick the diff from the options list (for fun and winter use) (atleast at somepoint here for the sedan C63 it wasn't a stock option)

Go for it!

Forget the S5. Wayyyyyy too common and boring. C63 Coupe would be a great DD.

Thanks guys, yeah, I wasn't really leaning toward the S5 because of the amount of them I see every week. I think I have only seen two other C63's on the road before, then again, it does look very similar to a normal C-class, so I may have never seen any. I just test drove a C63 sedan last week and loved it, it'll just be a bit bad on gas, but who the hell cares about that?

Agree, would be a killer daily. Just make sure you check the box for the diff.

You can get it individually in ROW, I think in America it's under the Performance Package which you get that as a combination with larger brakes, stiffer suspension and increased topspeed.

I thought 0-60 was around 4.2?

What's MSRP for the coupe?
