2012 C63 coupe
Correct. One of just a few ways they differentiated the coupe... 2 less doors (obviously), pano roof, different seat design...

For me, the panoramic roof wasn't a plus (although it didn't stop me from ordering a coupe either )... extra weight and less headroom for the track.

I have 3 kids (11, 3 and newborn) and chose the coupe anyway

When I need practicality, it is my wife's SUV. For a car I drive to the office and the track I want a coupe so it is really MY car. My M3 is a coupe and there is a car seat in the back for my 3 year old it is works very well. Having said that, we all have different needs and the coupe wouldn't be ideal if you always had passengers. For me, even with 3 kids, its never an issue as we have the other vehicle.

The day I have to give up a coupe is the day my kids are up for adoption ... just kidding ... kind of...

i would love to have the coupe but this is going to be my only car for a while, not that the sedan isnt nice, pretty aggressive looking for a sedan. also this is going to be my daily driver with school and work and everything else its just going to make my life a lot easier

I love the sedan as well so really it is whatever works better in your life. I find I like the coupe and sedan for the C63. For the M3 (which I am coming from), I really didn`t like the sedan but that isn`t so with the C63 sedan... it`s beautiful.

I do work for a client that owns a MB dealership so I wanted to drive one of their cars as opposed to BMW.

Just paint it gloss black like I did & save the extra weight from the panoramic roof.

I paid 260$ tax in at my bodyshop... It matches my black antenna, black roof moldings & my CF roof spoiler better.
