BMW F10 M5, C63 coupe on order
F10 M5 to C63 coupe

Hi gents

As the title really, I have run my current gen M5 for the last 3 years and looking to move into the new c63 coupe. Quite looking forward to a change from M cars (m5 is my fifth BMW ) and if brutally honest, the new M crop haven't done much for me.

I saw a c63 coupe in brilliant blue and was genuinely slack jawed at its sheer aggressive yet subtle ish stance which is precisely what I'm looking for.
That plus the stunning interior which is on another level to what BMW is offering imho.

Couple of quick questions for you owners

How many miles are you achieving on one tank as I hate filling up. Notice the fuel tank is 67 litres compared to 83 litres on the M5?

Assuming you test drove 19 and 20 inch alloy options, how much difference is there in ride comfort between the two? ( I commute through crappy central London roads every other day)

Any help much appreciated !

I've passed break-in with 1,600 miles on the clock, when I got the car it had a range of 270 miles on a full tank, now I get 320 miles.

Ride quality is brilliant for the class of car, I have the 19"/20" staggered wheel setup and the ride is surprisingly supple and compliant (for a performance sports coupe), easily livable with (I was also driving on crappy London roads). Also the ride quality is better than the saloon's.

I left a review of my coupe on this thread, might help answer any more questions you've got

I can live that range, not too dissimilar to the M5

Hi chaps

I placed my order in today!
Must admit the c43 did interest me but I'm a stickler for V8s.

Blue
Premium pack-
360 cam
Driving assistant - spend a lot of unwanted time on the M25!
19 inch alloys
Black ash trim

It's a long wait now until Feb!

Going from a sedan to a coupe is always tough... but in saying that the coupe is actually quite comfortable.

I have the 19/20 options it works well.

Congrats on the order, look forward to seeing some pictures in Feb.

looking forward to see your coupe buddy

when it was still in break in I used to get a max range of 490km but after several tanks the full tank range would give me 630-640 km.

It took some persuasion from me to convince the missus as we have a 3 and 5 year old. I really miss my old e92 v8 M3 and need to get back in a coupe

Your car looks utterly stunning by the way and really made me think twice about blue!

In that case, well done on persuading her!

Thank you, I was contemplating the Matte before confirming the order but decided to stick with black, all the cars I've owned have been black. I don't think I cold do another colour as a daily haha..
