Oh and let's not get started with modding potential (he's got the full Evosport treatment on the way )
Highlighted part is overstated IMO and a common misconception/bias of us M3 owners who have never driven a C63 coupe on the track... I have driven one on the track and they are very capable. 95% of the capability of the M3 on track and would be even closer with better rubber. The M3 is still a better track car on most tracks but it is a very narrow gap with the revisions on the 2012 C63 coupe and a difference most of us would not be skilled enough to experience. If the car was a track only car, then the M3 is still the choice. For a DD with 8-10 track days a year... which one is better is a toss up IMO and the decision will be made based on what you like about each car and subjective items.
