Nice comparison pics, really shows how the 205 has grown in physical size, the 204 series is nice and compact and didn't really get bigger than the previous 203.


I hope the new 205 series C63's eventually get the curved power domes over the bonnet as was the case with the 204 which had straight domes until the face lift introduced the curved profile

Nice review & pics! Have anything in the pipeline to persuade those of us with pending orders to drop the oem carbon/night styling?

How would you rate the MCT downshifts compared to the m4?

I know the m4 is going to be better, but just curious your thoughts on how much better, does it skip to the 2nd downshift right away like the m4? I think the m4, when you downshift twice it just goes right to the second downshift.

Just incase you didn't know you can hold the left paddle and it's like kick down. It'll shift straight to the lowest gear it can for the speed your going. That might be of use in situations where your doing a double downshift and I suspect would be quicker as its only a single shift the car will do.

It doesn't compare to the DCT as you have already guessed. It is a middle ground between the previous transmission and the M DCT.

I'm interested in the rear diffuser! I'm bummed we couldn't get it from the factory in carbon like in a few other countries. Hopefully the one designed by mode carbon will be even better! Any indication of price for this piece? What about a introductory price?

Your move Mode Carbon!

Lol, everything about the Edition 1 is awful with the exception of the spoiler, which does bear a striking resemblance to past MC spoilers. If the MC version for the sedan looks anything like this one though, I'm sold...
