Hopefully BMW will do it with the new M3?
They started a "new" direction with the 1M. One could only hope it continues

I like the C63 black... Well done Mercedes!

Are we supposed to be impressed that you own 2 cars? You call it out like your something special.
I own my X5M and M3 (along with an audi and a 911) who cares???

And Im not mad- but if your going to dish it out and call a white M3 a girls car, you should be prepared for people to fire back.

Ppl are a little sensitive on this thread. White and yellow are both terrible colors, anyway.

Red ftw!

Never said I'd be embarrassed to drive a corvette- I said Id be embarrassed to drive YOUR YELLOW corvette.
I also never said I wouldnt drive a red car. I said red didnt do the c63 justice in these pics and that I wasnt a fan of red.

I own a White M3 and a Yellow Porsche and think you both need to stop bickering like little school girls about car color in a thread about the C63 Black Series. It's people like you guys that ruin these forums as a place for real discussion.



On the actual topic:

This Mercedes is going to be amazing, and just greatly reduced the odds I buy a BMW product in the next year or two as this may be too tempting to pass up.

I can't wait for the official info on the supposed "track specific" options that are going to be available. Supposedly there is going to be an optional rear wing, but that is the only one I've seen any info on so far. I'm hoping one of them will be an optional lightweight titanium exhaust that will also give a power boost.

Obviously not a direct competitor to our cars, but I wonder how the new CRT Sedan and the M3 GTS stack up. Looks pretty awesome to me and I don't like Mercedes.
The CRT won't hold a candle to that thing

~517 HP and 477 ft lbs of torque will blow anything and everything BMW has to offer other then the M5.

Maybe it's because you started your post with, "it's ugly!" Maybe if you had said "the car kicks ass and I'll take one in white, please!" But "it's ugly" and "not impressed" makes you sound like a bit of a hater, that's all.

The new C63 "black" is one amazing machine. I happen to love the design.
I think horsepower isn't everything though. Take for example that Top Gear episode - M3 vs RS4 vs C63. The C63 had about 40 more HP than the M3. The M3 spanked the C63 around the track by 5 seconds. Not saying anything bad about the Merc at all but, HP isn't everything IMO.

I would definitely like to see an M5 comparison with this C63 Black!

Is it just me or does it look a lot like the a5/s5 from the front wheels to the back.

I personally like it since I like the A5/S5 looks ...

Thats a fair statement. "Ugly" is not the right word...
Im not hating on the black series cars in general, I drove the CLK black and it was great- I just dont like the looks of this one (red, white, or yellow)
Just doesnt do it for me...

I don't see that at all. An A5/S5 is slab sided (i.e. no pronounced fenders) where this Black Series is flared in front and in back.

I love it too

I actually do think it has a lot of A5/S5 from the rear quarter back, but I'm like most and really like the Audi design of that car so it works for me on the Benz. Oh yeah, it's the fastest color too. Red.
