And C&D will still rate the M3 higher...that pisses me off.

Until MB makes a manual transmission or at least a DSG, the car mags will continue to clip MB products -- solely those products that pretend to be hot road cars.

And, it's not like BMW makes junk.

There is no way in hell the C63 will be faster than the E63 or any other model above it in class. Period. 12.0 quater??? Not a chance. The wheel spin alone will prevent it from going that fast with stock tires. At best this car will be mid 12s.

Oh wow, the rear end on the new C really is the most ugly thing ive seen from merc since i dont know when! Reminds me of a Daewoo/Hyundai or something.

Seems to be the way with new shapes these days, but that said they do usually end up growing on me.
