so OP, what made you choose the C63 over the M3?

I'm contemplating on the same thing.. getting a C63 over an M3, but if I hold off a bit longer (we're talking 2-3yrs) I might as well get a 360modena or a gallardo.

Beautiful car. I'm not an MB fan at all, but the CLK black and your C63 are clearly their most inspired offerings.

Congrats and good luck,

Well, the price tag is around $10k+ cheaper (depending on options).
I'm getting more hp (yes, the m3 handles better but im not on track), interior styling is better. Love the pop-up LCD monitor + the command Navigation system.

Otherwise.... GO M3. Love that car.

Why not siu0410,

The new C-classe looks better than the current E90 and the E60 will next spring be a F10.

Also a C63 AMG is a killer, and I mean literally...

Good luck but try to drive carefully.

no ban if you let e60.net members test drive it, and you cant tell anyone.

I love that car.

Thanks for all the replies guys.

Be prepared to give opinions on my modding ideas.

I'm not really trusting the taste of the members on the c63 forums of MB world.
