    the e92 pleasee. I haven't had the chance to sit in/drive the c63 but I'm pretty sure that I would still favor the m3 over it. The fit/finish and the way the engine revs and sounds gives eargasms.

    Im gonna have to stick to the C63... the power, and the way it seems to act in the videos makes me hard... And plus bmw's interiors have always been too boring for me...

    Neither one.. the C63 is too flashy and gangsta-wannabeish and doesn't have a stick. The M3 (in E92 coupe form) looks amazing with the cf roof but has a crap interior. I'd go with the RS4.. deep exhaust note and very good interior and exterior. That said, I have driven the RS4 quite a bit and thus my comments might be a bit biased.

    On the basis of the exterior: M3 coupe, RS4, C63, M3 sedan
    Based on the looks of the interior: RS4, C63, M3 coupe/sedan
    Overall: RS4, M3 coupe, C63, M3 sedan

    That's a cruiser man.. not even remotely sporty. But if big bad cars are what you are after - SLK65 or CLK63. The CL looks too bloated.

    I'm leaning toward the M3. The Benz is a nice ride and probably faster in a straight line, but I am sure the M will out handle it.

    M3 all the way. I just cant live with an automatic no matter what. I don't care if the cars faster and nicer, its just so subdued to drive.
