As just mentioned above, I personally have a jones for effortlessly quick cars.

The M3 may well indeed be a more entertaining drive than the C63, and if there's a significant difference there, I'd tend to favor the M3 in terms of which I'd be most likely to buy.

However, Mercedes is apparently getting its act together around handling, so for those of us who don't give a damn about any particular manufacturer, this is a very interesting scenario we have unfolding before us.
