I read an Autoweek test and it was pathetic - you could easily read that the writer was struggling to compliment the car. The best line was about the pathetic 295 ft/lbs. of torque starting at 3900 RPM.
It will be like driving a rice-burner singing at 4-6k rpms just to keep the power up. It was also interesting to note BMW's change from SMG to and Audi-like DSG. Apparently the SMG never cut-it.
Make mine an AMG V8 with speedshift.

I don't see why there is a problem posting an M3-centered link here. Along with the RS4, it is the C63s direct competition. Also, the 262lb/ft never adversely affected the performance of the E46 so I don't see it as that big of an issue.

posting stat, specs of the car would be ok iguess.. but whats the point of this page? That vid has been around for months...
I guess my point is... We have like 2-3 new M3 threads under C63 section.. Do we need another one?? I think not.. but then, I don't own this board and we live in a free country...
Do as u wish

hmmm..sounds almost like a flat plane cranked engine.
in teams of graet sounding engines, have any of you gentlemen ever listened closely to a ferrari f355 at full song?? or...1/4 throttle or 1/2..wherever in the rev band, simple phenomenal. i just came in from a spirited drive. couple of forays to 8700 rpm. my hair is still on end.
