It is very nicely finished inside.
I look at it, and as of right now, I can't see myself in it. I know I just got my 507, but there is something about the car that just doesn't speak to someone 40 something driving it. It just looks "old" and boring, I don't know why but something about it just takes any youthfulness out of it...maybe the tapered rear? S-Class styling cues?
Just looks like an old man's car...

Like I said, I like the car, but I gotta see its Coupe version in person. Thinking of moving on to F-Type R in couple years, or maybe the so called AMG GT. I agree with others, the AMG version needs to be much more aggressive looking, however this package in whole won't leave enough on the bone for 3 series and Audi A4 range.
One of my co-workers who drives an S4 is blown away by the new C's design and he's now wondering how he can get one. I usually hold back until I see the car in person and take it for a good 30 mins test drive.

it looks great...can't wait to see the AMG verison..to me it looks more agressive..+ the new safety features they have...BMW has a lot to compete with, if you guys haven't seen the new C-class safety features check it out..very impressive

I don't mind it at all. I think the interior is fantastic. I'm looking forward to getting one eventually.
It's funny how they finally upgraded their 6-cylinder engine and made a virtual 335i competitor and then gave it AWD. I wish it did have a RWD option.
I hope the AMG version is not like how they did the CLA and other AMG models as of late (nothing really visually different or wider in the AMG version) and they do something like in previous years.

Just awful. As others have said - looks like a G37 mashed together with an Elantra. And that tablet on the dash???? WTF? Had such high hopes of getting my hands on the 507 in early 2014 and now my hopes of that are dashed. Definitely won't be lining up for the 2015 model. Unless Audi manages to do something pretty spectacular with their "new and improved" S4 I think the M3 has this field pretty much destroyed, at least in terms of styling.

GLK350, G55, AMG GTS, C63 507
This site posted the 2015 C class with AMG package looking almost like the black C posted earlier, so the C63 would definitely look similar.

bmw e-60 550i,bmw e-92 m3, c63coupe p31, stable of Italian stallions MV's
taillights in back look wrong, small or shaped incorrectly. The front looks like a E class and the small inlets on the rear bumper are too small. The m4 will be aggressive and a better value,I think I'm going to keep my c 63 coupe p31 for a little longer. But, the s class coupe might be the better option for a little more money. I'd rather slip into the s class coupe then the m4 or c class in about 3 years. Porsche is over priced and Audi needs a stronger engine for Audi to be better in the rs model range.

oh yeah! 
i know, right?
I'm now convinced that you are suffering from HPD (Histrionic Personality Disorder) which is one of the many unresolved mental issues that contribute to your douchebaggery.
I advise that you seek professional mental help, and ask your psychiatrist to review all your comments on all forums and social networking sites you frequently harass people on, he or she may very well have a nobel prize winning worthy case on his/her hands. God bless.

Porsche Turbo is awd?
Lambo's are awd?
Veyron is awd?
there is a reason all major racing series don't allow awd...it's FASTER and safer...to drive at the limit is just as challenging, it just requires different techniques...and the fact that you are going faster raises the level of involvement
the RS4 is as fast as an M3, non Z vette and 911 around the 'Ring despite being MUCH heavier...
guys like you probably complained about:
ABS and traction controls
calculators vs slide rules
GPS vs paper maps
lol

Winter for NYC, it's a trash car. You look at it it looks like it's 2 years old... it's only 4 months old.. my first awd car and the latest. I hate it.
As for your porsche, lambos bugatti examples, that's why I'm not a fan... I like Ferrari and anything that privileges driving skills. But no money for that yet..
Oh and I do love the Carrera GT.. the only porsche worth it... but who cares, to each his own. I stick to my opinion and you stick to yours and again you guys are talking to a wall. Stop being so butt hurt and admit the fact that all you want is show but no go.
PS: It's not because I don't have a list in my sig stating all the cars I own or used to own that you should assume I only have/had an AWD Lexus. Unlike most of you here, I'm not looking to show off or prove anything to some people behind a keyboard.

we know we are talking to a 'wall', 'bout smart as one too
what is 'butt hurt'? you keep going on about it
perhaps it is YOU who is this 'butt hurt' thing?
were you abused as a child? have some sort of perv uncle or something?
no one is 'butt hurt' (wetf that means)
you are just being irrational and really don't know what you are talking about
it is absurd (or the height of pompous arrogence) to state that all awd cars are for 'silly no driving skill monkeys' and demean all those who see merit in a hipo awd platform (including Ferrari, Audi, Lambo, MB, Nissan, Porsche, BMW, et al)
I have to agree, there is something wrong with you, your head ain't on straight

Can we talk about cars...and not about your butt-sex dreams please...leave that for your Christian Mingle private chats
Now back to big smokey rear-drive burnouts!
