Well, I'll give you a "congrats".
I went back and forth between the M3 and C63 for over a year. Loved both cars, and would have been quite happy with the M3. Went with the C63 for the torque and exhaust note.

What a nice black beauty!! You're very lucky to own both cars... it must be hard to wake up in the morning & pick which car to drive... hehehe!

All kidding aside, I think owning both may actually be a curse more than a blessing.
I think it would be hard not to amplify the "short comings" of each car after driving the other.
I feel like if I drove the C63 first and then hopped in the M3 next, I'd find myself wanting more torque and power while driving the M, plus I'd miss the beautiful sound our cars make.
On the flip side, after driving the M and then jumping in the c63, I'd find myself missing the sharp handling and balanced nature of the M.
For me, I think I would end up not really wanting either one shortly.
Or, I have a feeling more money would be spent trying to mod each one to get closer to a "perfect" car.
Too bad the two cars couldn't have a baby together
--if they could, I bet I know who'd be the "man"
Congrats on the M3!

BOOOOOOOOO!!! Just kidding, congrats fellow Ontarian, but how do you choose what to drive?? BTW, the M3 that you have, I heard one with an aftermarket exhaust and I was stunned how good it sounds, maybe its a thought for you in the future?

What to do when you just can't make up your mind and are afraid of missing out on something? Buy one of each...LOL 
Haha.... you already had one of each
Congrats on the new MY11.75

Very nice.
I had an E46 M3 with similar interior and liked it very much. The only way you can have red without being abnoxious imo.

I picked up an 08 M3 a couple of months back, and to be honest, comparing street car to street car, I drive the C63 all the time.....
The lack of torque, in the M3, on the street, just doesnt make it as fun....and I hate revving the **** out of it, just to get it to hustle
Plus my M3 is a 6speed and i hate rowing the gears....it just doesnt make sense anymore, on the street, with the more advanced paddle tranny's.....its like driving a muscle car with drum brakes when you know you can have a set of disc brakes that do everything better
