In what sense?
With respect to driving dynamics, the steering feel on the '12+ C63s is incredible. Perfect weight (and it's consistent), very communicate. The car is amazingly neutral.
It's no secret that the C63 has more power and more torque than the E9X M3. People forget that the M156 revs beyond 7000 rpm. In addition to having lots of grunt down low, the motor really comes alive at 5500 (especially with a tune).
The MCT transmission (redundant, I know) is pretty darn good. Very, very smooth in Comfort. The DCT is quicker; hard to beat it.
The M3 is the lighter car and on tight, technical tracks with lots of tricky corners and hairpins, the M3 likely has a bit of advantage.
On fast tracks with curving, uphill and downhill sweepers, give me the C63.
You can't go wrong with either car. Both cars are dynamic daily drivers that can report for track duty as well.
