Top Gear Review C63s Coupe Edition 1 Motorsport

Pretty much a glowing review.

"Easier to drive fast than a BMW M4, more fun than any RS5 Audi, eats a Lexus RC F for breakfast. But more than that, it’s more fun, because it works with you, rather than scaring you silly."

Nice review. Didn't see them mention the weight which is a good sign.

Great review, but then as mentioned in other threads there has not been a single negative review yet of the new C205 C63S Coupe

I suppose it's pretty much official and we all knew it from it's release that we would have a new overall segment king, the C class AMG's have always been more powerful, faster and more luxurious than their direct competition but this is the first time the combined overall package is at the top

Yes great review !

Indeed I think the new king has arrived, in the end even if the M4 is a little bit more refined on the track, the c63s blows it away in all the other aspects, who even cares for some seconds difference on track..

Yes I suppose there would be some jilted BMW M4 aficionados these days as it's not only the heat of competition from the new AMG C63S coupe but the M4 is also feeling the heat performance, handling and even exhaust sound wise from within its own camp from its little brother the M2 and what a little ripper of a car the M2 is

Simple fact is the M4 never convincingly beat the previous C204 C63 coupe in an overall performance aspect and that was not a fair comparison anyway as it was previous vs new generation, different scenario now
