It looks nice with that color on the seats. Have you sat in one? I think the quality of materials in the M3 is nicer than in the C63. But the C63 does have that muscle-car engine.
Nice pics, thanks

The C63 currently has the best interior of the bunch, it's finish is the one which closely mimics the Audi RS4 but obviously is much more modern in design. There is a definite sense of occasion from the C63 which isn't present in the M3.

+1 agree
but I much rather have the Black seats. I sat in one and to me those Are Seats ! heavier set owners tend to complain they are snug. thats the way I like it. Like a space rocket seats ![]()

the dash is too elegant for me, but its okay... you feel rich especially after getting yourself in a $70k debt, at least you can see where your money went

If anyone get a chance to see and start the engine, rev-up the accelerator at least, the car sounds like an Aston Martin, its Full and Rich... no after market needed here

The C63 sure performs well.....in a straight line anyway....but the M3 just looks SO much better..... I would like to drive one myself though!!

I don't like pop-up Nav screens. Also, don't like the speedometer needle, too fat and short. Dash looks too plasticky and I have heard that is apparent in person.
Seats do look better in black. US definately getting those seats?

few turns offs for me are
$2600 gas guzzler tax no service/maint included 12city/19hwy mpg no much after-market mods and tinkering around can and should be done on a Merc ... but other than that it got my attention

Many are working on this chip and will be out sooner. Cons for C63AMG - no damping control (always harsh ride), no keyless go option for US models.. ( what were they thinking...), as much as i love 4 doors, i don't need it this time.

That would be great! I'll PS one in a sec ![]() +1 I love the 2-colour seats. That's smart. Hard to decide between that and black though. Black would be more practical (wouldnt get dirty as quick) and would look stealthy. Choices, choices lol. I'm not such a fan of pop-up screens either, but the C-class interior is better than the 3 series in real life. I feel that the E9x interior has went downhill in some respects since the E4x design.
