Well it doesn't feel weak. I realise its hard when all you can do is stare at numbers on a page, but 420bhp feels plenty quick enough to be having a whole lot of fun.
I also own an ML63 with the same engine as the C63, although my ML has 511bhp. Now the ML feels 'slightly' quicker than the M3, but then the ML is stupidly quick. Not a lot quicker but it has the kind of acceleration that feels like nothing could keep up sometimes. The M3 feels very close to this, very dominant against other traffic and it would take something of another league above to pull rank over it. I really would not worry about the M3 feeling weak, that's not how I would describe it after driving it.
