Pitted C63 AMG against E92 M3 (Pics and all) From (BMW Mexico)
"Ok, for those of you that may be wondering, I had a great chance today to test drive a C63 AMG. In a nut shell, C63 is a faster car than the E92, absolutely NO question about that. The 63 pulls very, very hard with all that torque couple to a fabulous and very quick automatic transmission. The exhaust sound is fantastic, downshifting is a joy to do as the engine gurgles and pops. It is also a very, very stable platform at speed got to 240 kph in NO TIME!!! The seats and steering wheel are FAR nicer than those that we find on the E92. Now, at the end of the day however, the E92 enters and exits curbs at high speed much better than the 63 that suffer from understeer and forces you to slow down. Passing is surprisingly about the same in both cars since the M3, when reved, is a killer as well. General body style etc… E92!! End of the day, I like the M3, but not at all by a large margin."
