C55 vs M3 - test drive
When i went out to buy my C55, I test drove both C55 and M3. Both are sold at my the dealer I was working with. These are my impretions:
M3 - Likes: Styling and sheetmetal are great.
Looks mean.
I like the inline 6 motor.
Option for factory 19's.
Option of convertable is nice.
Dislikes: Leather was not up to par.
Over agressive suspention.
Intirior panneling was chinsy. Painted on Aluminum will crack.
Dash cover, like on all BMW's looks like something from Korea.
Not the power I expected.
Trunk space was so-so.
2 door. Not good for me.
BMW factory wipers suck.
Did not like BMW navi.
Disabointed with the power.
Smaller.
C55 AMG - Likes: V8 power.
Great leather intirior
MB navi system is great.
Finger shifters!
Fit and finish of the intirior is better.
Handles very well.
Plush suspention.
Steering is increadable.
4 doors.
MB paint choices.
AMG seats.
Dislikes: Auto tranny.
More $.
Less agressive styling.
Less edgy handling.
Why even offer wood trim?
Am reception blows.
