C63 VSM3 VS R4
I saw the next video in TOP GEAR channel
As I have driven all 3 cars I can surely say that C63 is MUCH better than BMW...
Audi is out of the contest for me as it lacks in so many things
I wrote a post in my blog about my experience with driving them if you wish to see

Man you are lucky, having this beauty!
I am planning to buy the coupe (hopefully soon enough) or the new A45...it will show as here in Greece Taxes are huge for 6.2l
Anyway I was searching for vs videos and as it seems I had missed this.... but what I wanted to say is BMW is overrated. I was working for BMW some years ago....and I can say that what Mercedes gives you is always a +1

The M3 is in no way overrated. It's a fantastic car.
The M3 is actually better than the C63 on the track. The C63 is the better street car. The 4.0 just can't compete with the 6.2 on the street.
The C63 and the M3 are both awesome cars in their own right. I have no idea what Audi is thinking.

W204 C63 Coupe, W166 ML350 BlueTEC, 928GT, C5 Z06 & IS300 race cars, EQE 4Matic+ on order
The RS4 has a valvetronic exhaust, so it does offer the best of both worlds - quiet for normal driving and loud when you open it up in sport mode. IMHO that's the only thing missing from the C63.

I have a M3 but I did have a hard time deciding. I bought M3 because it had manual but some times I really wish I got the C63 when I am having a hard time shaking turbo 4s off my ***.

I'm in the market for a C63 and test drove one recently. Very nice factory exhaust note. My M3 has the Akra Evo and I felt the AMG C has more of the Eisenmann style of sound. The wife liked it, lol. Drove the CTS-V coupe and sedan yesterday for giggles and aside from the cheap GM plastics the bottom end torque is well pronounced. Anyway I'm stalking around doing my research on all of the platforms.

I had an RS4 for ~5 years and 70k miles
it was a great car
it's hard to say the C63 is 'better' when both are great
imho I like the C63 exhaust note better (even when the RS4 is in sport) but don't get me wrong, the RS4 sounded amazing as it screamed towards 8000 rpm, the engine iss a jewel, mechanical sounding with chain drives and very close to Ferrari territory
DI and 12.5:1 Cr, 90% peak torque from 2500 to 7600 HP peak
yet docile and got 26-27 mpg on the HW and 19-20 average
I have no regrets moving to the C63

Guys of course M3 and Audi are GREAT cars.
No doubt about it, but I personally believe that they are overrated for what they give.
This doesn't mean that they are not fantastic cars.......but always according to me C63 is one class higher!
