450HP is definitely scary, but you need to unleash the beast with a tune

Top Gear compared the C63 with a M3 and Audi RS4, Clarkson loved the power of the C63 but added that you'd better be alert when you are driving it. In the end though the M3 was the best round the track thanks to the superior road handling and balance of the car. The C63 is an awesome beast though, but i think the M3 would be more forgiving of mistakes.

I remember that episode... I loved the part when Hammond (I think) put placed a coin on one of the turns and changed the C63 to go over it but after multiple tries Clarkson gave up. On the other hand the M3 hit the mark every time.. goes to show the agility of the M3 against the brutal power of the C63.

That was a great episode, i cant wait till the new series is back on our screens. Fifth Gear doesnt even come close to motoring entertainment. Did you see the episode when they tried to cross the channel in a 4x4\boat? That was a scream they managed to delay the ferry docking in port.

Apologies for drifting off topic, more of a swerve really.

i have always thought of the c63 as a powerful beast, made only to go fast while you just sort of hold on for dear life. Now, I would love to be back in a car with that kind of power. Give it a month, you will be modding it for more power.

Congrats on the car. C63 is a beast to drive. Torque is out of control on that car. Good choice.
