Yes, the suspension is plenty stiff, but the car sways back and forth on fast lane changes, and the suspension is not nearly as supple as the M3 on midcorner bumps. In other words, this car did not feel nearly as safe and secure as the M3. It clearly is more massive in feel, even though it is only a C-class. I can't imagine what an AMG E or S class feels like, if the C63 doesn't feel well balanced.

Thanks, well stated. That's exactly the difference between an M and an AMG.
