'08 Mercedes-Benz C63 AMG v '07 Audi RS 4 v '08 BMW M3 - Comparison Tests
Third Place: 2007 Audi RS 4
Second Place: 2008 M-B C63 AMG
First Place: 2008 BMW M3
Nice job M3.
The C63 was a very close second. It seemed to out perform the M3, but they deducted for harsh-feel suspension and they didn't really like the looks.
C63 does 0-60 in 3.9 sec. WOW!
Quotes:
"But if you like to be seen, heard, and talked about, the C63 is your Lamborghini of sports sedans."
"The M3 wins because it is the best-the most sporting and emotionally appealing car in this group. It's not the fastest, but its relatively light weight and deft handling, and the relationship it fosters with the driver, are the most compelling. And by the way, it is the least-expensive car of the three."

whew ! I thought for sure that MB was gonna take it lol yay for bmw! 
But I can't get over the 3.9 sec 0-60 time, that is insane. Does anyone know if there is a faster production sedan or is the C63 the fastest?

Yep I thought the MB would take it also. But looks like BMW did it again, making the true enthusiast car.

I dont think MB S65 can outperform that 0-60 time and im confident no RS6 can get close neither.

My Ride: Fully Loaded Monaco Blue 550i Sport
I'll be test driving both the 63 and the M3... based on the power ratings im more leaning towards the C63 but i know the m3 will win me over once i test drive it.
BMW has been doing this to me everytime i shop for other competitors...

I'd say, it would be slower with a manual. But that's just me.
isn't the M5 slower with manual trans?
