CTS-V Coupe
I have the same question about the 2012 E63 with the 5.5, they're already hitting dealerships in somewhat substantial numbers and there's not a word out there on them. What gives?

I agree on exterior looks alone. Interior though is a different story as is power, etc. I would rate the M3 slightly ahead looks wise (WAY ahead in the rear end, close on profile, and slightly ahead in the front). Although I prefer the M3 coupe looks wise, it is close enough that I don't feel like I'm missing anything going to the C63 coupe. Also, even if the M3 coupe has a slight edge, IMO, the C63 still looks amazing nonetheless!! Moreso in person than in pictures.

The M3 is pretty nice looking, however here in Richmond there are tons of M3s driving around... its kinda lost its like "OMG an M3!!" Whereas the MB C63 AMG still has that kick.

The C63 interior is much more attractive than the M3 interior, and that's where we spend most of our time in the car

True that. He and I are both in the Vancouver, BC area and it is FLOODED with M's. Dime a dozen. Seriously. This is a town that is seriously into cars
(and brands in general) so I am always amazed when people in fairly large cities excitedly post seeing another C63. We have quite a few. Not sure why since they are more expensive here than in the US, but we are absolutely awash in all the German car brands.

EVO magazine did one with the RS5, Boss 302 and M3. The M3 won by a small margin but their comments were it was effectly a toss up with the C63 but because someone had to win, it went to the M3.

Just to clarify the comment on price in Canada.
Once you identically equip the C63, (in Canada the options are grouped together and not as individualized as in the US), a fully loaded car with Premium package and Performance package, the C63 is much less expensive in Canada than the US.
BTW, take at Australia for example, the price due to taxes and fees is more than double than here.

While you and I would be down for a full on test of the C63 coupe I'm wondering if the car mags don't see enough of a difference from the sedan. Also the C63 competitors haven't really changed much. (M3, IS-f, CTS-V)
