Interesting vid. We've all known the M3 is likely better for the track, and I'm honestly happy with how well the C63s did despite the lack of CCB and a couple obvious errors on the driver's part.

2016 C63S Sedan
In one review where the Giulia won they had cup 2 tires and the others had PSS so it was not a fair review.

Plus, the other two don't come close to the C63 when it comes to refinement, fit and finish of the interior.

I have squeeks and rattles and the center dash moves when you push it.
M3 is a better track car in the hands of an experienced driver.
An unexperienced driver will probably be faster C63 in the due to the level of 'safeness' it gives the driver while pushing hard.

BMW interior is of superior quality compared to the C63... I'm rather factual than being biased because I drive a Benz nowadays.

I'm surprised at your comment on interior quality. I owned an F80 M3 and now own a C63S and I feel the Benz is hands down better. The M maybe had a slightly softer leather, but there were more hard plastics and I had a lot of rattles. I had a Cayman S for the past year between the M and the AMG so maybe I'm not remembering perfectly but I can't recall something in the M interior that I would have considered to be nicer than the C63.
Looks may be subjective, but it's almost universally accepted by reviewers that the AMG is of higher quality and more upscale interior than the M.

The general consensus with nearly every single reviewer has put the C63S interior over the M3. It's not even in the same category. It's like comparing a 2-series to a 5-series.

Quite pathetic IMO. Those tires should make up for over a second of time on a lap this long (and that is being conservative).
Love the alpha but would have a hard time spending my money on it. Dealer network is poor and I have seen reviews and feedback of strange electrical issues.

Alpha ships with 60 treadwear tires and still loses to the M3.

there is no difference in technical part between m3 and m4 but there is VERY huge difference between c63 coupe and sedan
