(Video) E92 M3 vs. MB C63 AMG

Here's a video of some highway pulls between an E92 M3 and a friend's C63 AMG. From what I'm told, the C63 should gently pull on the M3. The results show we were just about neck and neck for 2/3 pulls. He did have a passenger (I'm guessing with a weight of about 150 lbs), which probably would have made that slight difference and allow him to pull. Nonetheless, enjoy:

Great video indeed. Just as I expected. I always believed (and always will regardless of the loyal C63 fanbois ranting and denial) that C63 and M3 E9X is a driver's race in a straight line with the M-DCT and an expert 6 speed manual driver. The 400 pounds extra weight really offsets any power advantage.

Around a race track, it is a no brainer, M3 by a mile.

Yeah, I give it a few more minutes . Racing on a deserted road is bad enough, but flying past other cars is just crazy.
