Anyone considering W205 C63s?
I had my first sit in an actual C Class on the weekend. I was very dissapointed!
The transmission tunnel is extremely wide, the footrest was pathetic and with my 186cm frame and large feet I was very uncomfortable. The driving position felt unnatural also. Everything else looked great as you would expect. I'm really not sure what Mercedes do, whether it is a RHD issue but their (smaller) cars just don't seem fit me! (BMWs always feel just right for me, even the 1 series). Anyway, would be keen to hear others thoughts. It is obviously off my list! |

Had a look and a drive
I was impressed but not blown away. I prefer the bm cockpit. Much prefer the info screen on m3. Don't like the tablet at all in the merc Thought the Mb was too busy inside. Head space in the rear is tight I'm 184 cm as is my son and can't sit up straight Thought bm seats more comfy C63 Engine great and effortless and sounds terrific but I think the m3 sounds pretty good too. More metallic but still good Sound system in mb very good M3 looks better imo After the price drop and from quotes I have been given 20-25k more expensive for merc-no contest really Thinking pf an m performance exhaust for the m3 and then I think I will be just about perfect |

I think it really comes down to taste, what do you think looks better, whos interior do you think looks better.
If you are cross shopping between C63S and M3 now, unless you think the C63S looks better both inside and out, the M3 is the way to go. Performance wise they are very similar, put the money you saved on the M3 into an exhaust system + some mods if you want or just pocket the change either way you'll come out laughing with the M3. |
