yea the c63 is FOOKING fast! the m3 is about as fast as i said it was gonna be all along (except trapped 1 mph higher than i guessed) and also, the m3 was on 18s so thats prob a little bit quicker than it will do on 19s. the rs4 is is nothing new (the numbers) from other tests.

i think the c63 is damn impressive and has the agressive looks i wish the m3 had...the other car that looks interesting is this new lexus IS-F...not so crazy about the exhaust treatment (its ok) but that car is aggressive and the is350 is quite impressive the few ive been in.

nice find dave...im pretty sure i know what youre thinking since we pretty much have very similar things to say on most matters.

I saw this earlier today. Those numbers are scary fast, 3.9?!?!

Either way, its only an auto (huge downfall IMO) and I'm not a fan of flared front fenders and smaller rears.

Needless to say, the car is a monster and will dominate the category.

M3, 0-60, 4.3 sec - 1/4, 12.8 @ 113

RS4, 0-60, 4.5 sec - 1/4, 13.1 @ 108 (boo)
Very impressive, but with 6.3 liters I would hope so. The piggy weight even beat my predictions, though at +473 lbs. more than the M3! You neglect to point out that the M3 won ALL the "chassis" (handling) categories and the comparison overall, so use of the term "kill" is a little overdone, IMO. I'm new to this forum, but I hope it's about more than going fast in a straight line, or we'll have to sart talking about Hemis.

at these performance numbers, they should have done E63 AMG vs M3 vs RS4. theyre closer in cost too

AMGs are always faster on straight line, but when comes to track performance they are always behind ///M.
