Can't compare those two cars. It's the same deal as CTSV being compared to M5. Wrong class peeps. C63=RS4=M3, E63=RS6=M5... the weight, balance of the car and a ton of other factors make this a nonstarter. Though - given either car, sorry I'd go all in on an RS6 - just not willing to pay almost twice as much for one!

yeah, its amazing that the C63 had such tires on to begin with and also the question is did it have the PP? I would like to see a test, one without PP and the other with PP (LSD).....

When will it end...? The C63 appears to be getting compared to every car with over 400HP these days. I'd really like to see how it stacks up against the CTS-V and maybe the IS-F in every day driving. It's one sweet ride, but it wasn't built to take on the automotive world.

AMG C63
Want me to explain it ? Read the comments section - the M3 has a Kelleners ECU tune and exhaust. There is your explanation.
RIght now the cars are pretty close, but the C63 will beat a stock M3 most of the time. On a bad day youre not feeling well and M3 comes along youre not paying attention and the M3 could beat your C63. HOWEVER if we start chipping the motors go from the 400 in the M3 to like what 425? thats all youre going to get out of it. BMW did not leave much left in the motor.
THE AMG C63 HOWEVER is detuned and the sky in the limit. I am sure 600hp is not out of the question for the AMG C63 motor. So the stock advantage we had grows leaps and bounds if we start releasing the power in this motor
Then youre going to have a bunch of 575hp cars running against the 425 hp M3 and it will be a mess.

The M3 guys like to leave that crap out because if we start chipping and getting 550 hp, then we will start blowing the doors off the M3 kleeners ECU and an exhaust they want to pick!!
