Steering was very light even when pushing the car. The ride quality was definitely worse compared to an M3 with competition package driven in the city. And you could feel that extra weight pretty much in any driving situation other than cruising on a highway.
Overall the car did not feel as a complete package.
That's interesting. I find the steering feel of the C63 to be one of the best attributes about the car. It is consistently heavy, provided plenty of feedback. I can always feel what the front wheels/tires are doing.

The only time I can feel the car's weight is when I introduce oversteer. Takes some practice reeling the rear end back in.

And I've found that the seats (I have a sedan) are the most supportive and comfortable I've ever used on a daily basis. If someone is on the heavy side, they definitely won't find them comfortable.

I'm glad that the new M3 is finally getting more heavily bolstered seats.
