I think the winner of this sound off is obvious, however the C43 is one serious piece of kit

Agreed, 63 is clearly better but the 43 does an admirable job of trying to keep up all things considered. MB has a winner with both here.

AMG C63s
A hybrid of the two cars would be the best (wishful thinking).

That all wheel drive system + 9 speed would make the c63 unstoppable!

By the time I'm tired of my C43 I am praying this happens. Would LOVE a 63 in AWD.

Not when you compare it with the sound of a V8 - I think its an unfair match.

However, it sound pretty damn good for a v6 turbo... much better than the current M3/4 (IMO)

This will definitely happen it's not a question of if but when, one things for certain the mid life updated C63's will feature the new 9spd MCT and a modest power hike, the 9spd MCT alone will increase acceleration noticeably

Or by then if the C63's haven't yet gone AWD you can take a close look at the new E63S coupe - this machine is going to be epic !!!

Totally agree and don't mean to hate on the M3/4 but the exhaust note from the S55 IL6 TT is truly terrible
