But merc still has a way to go. I like a car with engineering, with attention to detail. Benz has good sounding motors. That's it. Everything else sucks. Heavy. Trannies r a joke especially at that price tag and in this day and age.. If sound and straight line performance is ur thing get a domestic.
This car runs to 60 in less than 4 secs.. And is rated at 425hp.. That's engineering and attention to detail.
This is the most important car Bmw makes for the brand and m division. Have faith. They have never failed. Don't let one bad review influence your opinion. Everyone has an opinion. Out of all these guys I trust 3 people's review the most. Tiff, Clarkson and Harris. Idk what tiff has said but Clarkson and Harris love it. And Clarkson is a known bmw hater.

Yeah Sutcliffe achieved one of the slower 0-60 runs I've ever seen for the C63.
The last two tests I've seen, both the standard and 507 C63s achieved sub-4.0 second 0-60 times (3.9 for the standard, 3.8 and 12.2 1/4 mile for the 507).
Also, I've mentioned this before, as much as Chris Harris loves BMW, he preferred the W204 C63 to the E9X M3.
I didn't interpret this as a bad review for the F82 at all. I don't understand why others are taking it that way.
