Can't say I am a fan of the interior, too plain and similar to the lesser models (says someone driving an M3, itself little different to the other 3 series inside).

Nope. I saw a black ISF with the dark wheels and it was very nice. Of the three, C63 and ISF, the M3 is the tamest looking. Hopefully the next turbo version will look more aggressive.

damn the video is already down, guess ill get the torrent tonight.

would have been nice if they included the C63. actually to tell you the truth it would be a better comparison between the C63 and M3, i think. I would love to see what the stig could do with the C63 on the track. i think seeing what he could do with both cars would end all debates.

They already tested the C63 and the RS4 against the M3 in the previous season.
