I got excited when I first heard the E92 M3 exhaust, but the C63 exhaust note simply blows it away. There really is no comparison.

Maybe my favorite thing about this car (besides the engine) is the seats. The seats are INCREDIBLE! The design, the bolsters, the leather: flawless. Don't get me wrong, they are quite snug, but they feel perfect. Much more aggressive than the ///M's seats. The interior was just simply great overall, I liked the black birdseye maple trim, loved the flat-bottomed steering wheel.

This thing pulls like a locomotive, has gobs of torque, and the V8 engine wail is downright mean.

I now have one on order.
I agree, the C63 is a stunning bit of kit...the interior is great. And it's actually cheaper than an M3 (with my options).

But BMWs maintenance program is great. I went thru a set of pads in my 335 in 8k miles!!!

Better believe, when you take that C63 in for service...10k miles, 15k... etc,..the bill will get higher and higher each time.

Makes the choice harder from an ownership perspective.

Nice write up!!!!
