Specifically a new C63 AMG enthusiast

How's it going ladies and gents? new member and more specifically new to Benz but have recently fell in love the C63 AMG Sedan so now my M3 is currently on theater so that I may pursue this beauty. However the M isn't MINT so it's a challenge to sell. Anyway hoping to network here get to know some peopl.
Learn a bunch more about the 63 and go from there!

CHEERS

Welcome to the board! Are u looking at the pre-facelift, facelift or redesign 2015?

I can't comment on the new model/engine, but I can tell u the n/a 6.2 is a torque monster.. It always put a smile on my face even after 4 years of ownership.

BTW, what is wrong with ur M3? Accidented?

Welcome aboard. I think you will come to see the C63 as a much superior car to the E46 M3, especially in the torque department!

Well for starters thanks for the warm welcome everyone I have to say the M3 forum is not like this lol! Dunno why honestly why but anyways! I would say there is something "wrong" it's got some miles and some blushes that the the first 4 pages of the for sale thread alls I did was get FLAMMED! Until a mod decided to step in. To answer your question I love the 08 which I believe to be the pre face lift, since the 15s are nowhere near my price range. After doing some research this car seems phenomenal and quite superior to the M3 as you stated. Which is ironic because coming into the M world I was told
The C63 was our nemesis, and that's no way possible, because I would get destroyed by one lol! Maybe it's the nemesis of the E90/92/93 but even then the C63 seems very superior!

Welcome aboard.
When I was searching for my next car, I had 5 cars on my list to drive.
- C63
- E90 M3
- E60 M5
- Lexus ISF
- Audi S4


The C63 is where I ended up.


Both torque and raw hp was superior over all the others accept the M5, but liked the size of the C63 better.


The only negative thing that I have realized after my purchase are the constraints on wheel offset options. This car does not allow for a deep dish or deep contoured wheel design in the rear. So if you are a big wheel fanatic as most BMW enthusiasts are, this is something to know, not going to make me sell it, but has made me think about a widebody kit for the rear...


Good luck in your next vehicle endeavor.

Thanks for the Tip, I'm honestly more of a track type individual in stock form or maybe slight mods. So if I can get 265s out back that's enough for me haha! However so to time, location change and money constraints I haven't been able to enjoy the M around the track. So maybe I will since it's not selling! Thanks again man!
