Female drivers will love the electromechanical feel of the steering, but anyone driving an /// car will feel totally out of place in a series production BMW these days. It's a good thing DDC and DPC are offered as an option so you can choose the setting you like. I can see what BMW are doing - making the car easier to drive - which will suite the cashed-up Executives and school-run mums, but not the purists and enthusiasts. Then again how often will an /// driver trade-in his /// car for a series production BMW. Once an /// driver always an /// driver. You will not go back to a series production BMW or any other car. If you can't afford a new /// car you will stick to your beloved /// doesn't matter how old it is. That's what you call a real "marriage made in heaven". This is my 2c.

Holy old thread revival...anyways here's some old news posted by non American editors
The purpose is not for comparison sake but to show the driver variance. And when performance is so close it really doesn't amount to much in terms of performance to an average hpde driver.

I'm just going to leave this here...
Skip to 2.38 if you want to go straight to the bad news. [u2b]http://www.youtube.com/watch?feature=player_embedded&v=SdR0qTzbUUU#![/u2b] I'll also add that the Boss 302 LS lapped VIR in C&D's lightning lap faster than any BMW (including the M3) they've tested. MT got the Boss 302 to Lap LS faster than an M3. So there's that... well the YouTube tags aren't embedding the players, so please follow the link. Last edited by Number23; 05-14-2012 at 03:03 PM.. |

This is a good result, but as the author said, the M3 and C63 are evenly matched and it comes down to preference. I get the opportunity to drive either the C63 or M3 on any given day and they are two amazing feats of engineering. That roar of the C and the scream of the M engines are wonderful.

The M3 - in my eyes - has always been the best 'drivers car' out there.
