Performance coupes go head-to-head: BMW M4 vs. Mercedes-Benz C63 AMG

I tested the 507 for two weeks last year, that engine is a master piece...It really is...

[@romeolambo9958]

I have seen your video. It was awesome

[@simonb.2194]

I agree, but too bad amg can't have a proper transmission like pdk, Even the new dct in the cla45/a45 won't let you change gear when it's needed. I sold my c63 for this reason.

[@TheGetawayer]

Simon b. I was really disppointed testing the new CLA 45 a few weeks ago. Transmisson ruined all the fun for me

I own a c63 507 coupe and they are fantastic which has a difference compared to the standard c63!

[@Megadriver]

The M4 BMW is like having a focused marathon runner girlfriend that wants to improve her running distance constantly! The C63 Mercedes is the slightly drunk hottie that wants to party constantly. You drive an AMG with a wide grin on your face. I've tried both. Numbers aside, BMW is more precise, Mercedes is more fun. Simple as that. But at the end of the day, you are happy with either one and both would cost you an arm and a leg for a service, but they are worth every penny. German engineering is superior!

[@benzel5659]

megadriver6 I agree completely with you. Have driven both aswell, you drive the M4 with a straight and focused face and drive the c63 laughing with butterflies in your belly.

[@simonwalker6689]

Galileo Salomon yes its twice the price of a new Civic Type R, has half the warranty of the Honda, is far less reliable and slower than the Type R, uses twice as much fuel and costs as much per year to tax than the superior Honda its a Bavarian joke on wheels. BMW M pure comedy value form the makers of the ultimate driving pile of junk. Yet another gutless M engine which again is was down on power over the new CTR per litre 154 from the Honda to BMW's 140 , 220 hp per litre is production car power out put per litre . BMW enormous comedy value and what a hilarious spot make anyone laugh for the day like a Mercedes AMG or a Porsche 911 .

[@styleew1]

I own both. Sold the E92 m3 and went W204 C63 507. Never looked back. Picked up a F82 M4 about a year after owning the 507. The M4 is a great car!!! However, most of the people posting here have never driven or owned both. The 507 is legendary. It gets a ton of looks and is easy to drive as torque is linear to 4500 rpm. The M4 is slightly quicker to 60 because 100% of the torques comes in at 2000 RPM. Although the M is quicker it takes a skilled driver to do it. Most people will get wheel spin and sit there. The sound and AMG car makes is to die for!!! The M4 may be quicker on the track but they are virtually equal on the street The M4 is the better package when pushed to extreme limits. However, the sound is pitiful. I may get flamed for that but its true. If both cars emitted music from the exhaust the 507 would blast Metallica's "Seek and Destroy". The F82, anything by Kip Winger.

[@Smearrrrrrgle]

I'm absolutely in love with the 507 and the black series. Im jealous! haha

[@MrMarlby]

Seek and Destroy might be a great song but it has a thin tinny metallic sound that's surely more fitting of the F80? Sad But True would be more 507 like ;)

[@chuckdawg82]

I have the M4 and as far as I am concerned, the review of the "soft" throttle isn't really much of an issue at all and really isn't soft at all considering the severity of turbo lag in other cars designed with turbos. I think if there's anyone that's done a turbo proper, the M has done it. But they're also right, it's soft relatively to an NA car that can just crack the throttle for the power. So inevitably the 507 will feel just a little bit more crisp. At the end of the day I feel like it comes down to personal preference. I'm just more into the way the M looks over the 507...just a personal preference?

[@styleew1]

Well said. Couldn't agree with you more.

[@styleew1]

You are correct. Both are great vehicles. It really depends on what you will use them for.

[@fazedumb1982]

I’ve had both and currently own a 507 edition, love the c63!

[@sunnyjohal4864]

Just bought C63 amg. It’s a beast. Did not race it yet but love the sound and engine is a masterpiece.

[@thesrt8dodge]

This C63 is clearly one of the most brilliant cars of the last decade, it has SO MUCH SOUL, and this engine really is one of the best engines ever. I will miss you C63.

[@productfeedback]

I agree, the M4 sounds poor, I would have thought BMW to tune the sound better.

[@pmrrmm]

i hope akrapovic can solve that problem..

[@SoulTravellers]

Pedro Macário They will for sure, full exhaust plus cold air intake= problem solved and still gr8 fuel economy. Plus really who cares about the sound when you have 120 extra lbs of torque?

[@Powaup]

Have you heard the car in the real world? a lot of reviewers are raving about the sound. this guy is actually in the minority

[@petarmiletic997]

The M4 sounds pretty good but a V8 is a V8 a straight six can never sound better

[@Powaup]

Petar Miletic 100% agree and its harder to make a turbo I6 sound better than a NA I6. Still the S55 is better

[@Powaup]

He complains about the throttle response but doesn't say what throttle mode it's in... And says the C63 steering is better but does not say what steering mode he is on. He's one of the few reviewers this far that complains about throttle response also. This video screams bias, he even admits that he "loves" the C63

[@647killa]

Yes I felt the bias towards the AMG the whole time. Sutcliffe forgot the meaning of a proper old school driver's car. Maybe he's getting up there in age and prefers a bruiser cruiser to a track wrecker. The M4 wins everywhere in my books, even the looks. BMW's were always known for their steering and response and I'm not sure why he's complaining here and claiming a Mercedes is better at these things...HAH no way !!

[@Stichting-AAP]

647killa LOL! Fanboys alert!!!!!! No seriously M3/4 is good car.. But just as I thought, It's not that much better than the old one if you look at the specs. Which is the exact same reason why the C63 can stop people from buying a M3/4 and buy one of the lasts C63's. It was already better in some ways than the e90/92 M3. Except for the gearbox. But I'd buy a new M3 in Black if it was my money I guess.. Powerful, not shouty and discrete. Just as I like fast sedans.

[@647killa]

TurboDifferent lol yes fanboy alert...I was waiting for the alarm to ring at some point. To each his own but I prefer BMWs to Mercedes just because of the whole driving experience. Many will come here and try to say that an AMG drives better than BMW but I say no way. I'll take either the M3/M4 it doesn't matter. Depends, If you need 2 or 4 doors. The C63 was never a driver's car and I don't see how it is even better than the last gen. The V8 M3 had the highest revving V8 ever made and came with a proper manual gearbox and was beautiful to look at, which sounds loads of fun to me for a track and backroad experience. If I want a lazy fast V8, why not a Pontiac SS, Dodge Charger SRT8, or even any of the other muscle cars with V8s? They give pretty much the same experience as that of the benz, minus the luxury and price tag. Even an Audi RS4 or RS5 sounds more logical to me than the Benz.

[@Powaup]

TurboDifferent Not that much better? more fuel efficient, much more torque, better gearbox, better tech, cf crank shaft, cf strut brace and then less weight. Even the steel breaks on the M4 are an improvement from the e92. The c63 is much more expenisve and not to mention does not have a free maintenance program. take it to the dealership and they'll charge you $100 just to put more oil in your car and lets not talk about breaks...

[@647killa]

Powaup The M4 is a benchmark, and Autocar's review is just hyping us up for stupid reasons. The M4 has yet to prove itself in the real world and BMW is on top of the game right now with the M3/M4 and the M235i. The AMG poses no threat and I don't expect the 2015 AMG to be a more driver focused car either, as Mercedes Benz are not known for the driving experience. Oh and who cares about straight line performance...like i'd rather the new Camaro Z28 or ZL1 over that AMG benz.

[@Augustus222]

The C63 has an automatic transmission with a wet multi plate clutch instead of the torque convertert. Not a dual clutch gearbox!

[@USASPORTSCARDS]

The C63 is just as driver focused. The C63 has been around for 6 years and it still puts up with the M4? The M4 is a brand new chassis, suspension, all the tech and engine, transmission software and tech is up to date. The C63 was developed in 2007, sold in 2008. The fact that it's still even compared should only give you more than enough indication what kind of a car the C63 was. It is a TIMELESS car. Design wise, the design is 7 years old, but still comparable to a brand new car. The fact that the reviewer can even bring himself to compare the 2 cars, should say enough of the engineering and development of the AMG. If the old one just beats it or ties or whatever, the new C63 AMG shall thrash it. Especially having heard the engine on the Mercedes-AMG KZbin page. V8's forever.

[@FGeRHD]

M4 is new M3... so M3 is older than C63. Anyway.. like he said "V6.." dissapointing.

[@USASPORTSCARDS]

It is much newer than the merc. I never said the M3/4 wasn't a twin turbo straight six, so where did you get that from? I said V8's forever because the new M3/M4 isn't a V8. It was released in 2014 where as the C63 was released in 08 with this engine and chassis. The new M3/M4 is being released now, and it still lost a comparo with a car designed and released in 2008? Come on guys, learn a thing or two, or at least how to read. You have no idea what your talking about.

[@knockcro]

You can also look on this rewiev from anoter angel too: last bmw m3 e92 2007/8, and old clk 63amg (2004-5) could keep up with bmw m3 e92 when he came out. Peopel were saYing the same things, old car can keep with new m3, we cant imagine what new c63amg will do to e92. And what did it do? Nothing! C63 amg was slower on race track tested by the stig(top gear) . Same thing will be with m4 and new c63 amg who will also be turbo charged. C63 will be faster at drag race and not so much when it comes high speed cornering (track). All in all love bouth cars in my own way!

[@USASPORTSCARDS]

@marko pehar The C63 changed a lot of the market. Many R-models came out from the likes of Jaguar, Infiniti with their IPL etc, and the overall engine the C63 always topped that of the BMW. Sound wise, throttle response and overall response of the engine was always noted to be higher then that of the BMW. The handling of the BMW was great on a racetrack, it did a lot for AMG, and Chris Harris in his goodbye video to the C63 was extremely sad and explains what the C63 did to the M3 and C63.

[@3V14NV4RU]

USASPORTSCARDS but to be fair this wasnt the best review.. mercedes has a new c class now, why not wait for the new AMG version of it then review both up to date cars, they might as well of done the C63AMG (507bhp btw) against the older e92 m3..both v8s both from the same time near enough i think? you even said yourself the c63 is older so why pit them against eachother? also, consider the m4 its still quicker to 60 than a 507 hp v8??.....

[@lalo35149BEAST]

I'd still go for the m4

[@chuckvze]

M4 is more if are between the age group 18-35 I mean if you are over 35 you will look kind of silly in a M4

[@jostrander71]

@@chuckvze That is dumb, buy what you like. Also not many 18 year olds can afford a M4

[@joaosoares3719]

This is the first guy I hear complaining about the throttle response on the M4...

[@Powaup]

Yea this guy is bias, he loves the V8s, nothing wrong with that just dont review an I6 if you don't like them to begin with

[@mak450]

I don't think he's complaining so much as he's just noting that it isn't as good as the old m3 or c63 in that respect. He's not saying it's got bad throttle response, just that it's worse than it used to be.

[@Powaup]

Which does not mean that is actually the case. Out of all 20ish reviews that have come out he complains the most about the car.

[@mak450]

Powaup Sure, but how many of those reviews even compare the new car's throttle response to the old one? I've read a few myself, and of them all only Autoweek even compares the old car's throttle response to the new one, and they too agree the old one was better in that respect.

[@Kaipeternicolas]

João Soares well fact of the matter IS that the throttle response does suck most likely when you compare it to a N/A V8. Nothing wrong with him complaining about it a bit. That' just how it is. I'd complain too.

[@647killa]

M4 wins because its a more driver focused car. AMG's V8 is nice but i'm getting tired of the 6.2 litre V8 being used in almost all of their line up. The M4 looks beautiful (subjective) and comes with a manual gearbox, which is a huge selling point for a track junkie and backroad warrior like me. Tuning wise the M4 is gonna take the cake again, because a boosted car with a simple ECU tune and exhaust/intake can make all sorts of numbers. Let's face it, people who buy AMG's dont buy them to necessarily to mod, race or drive the backroads. Very few people buy Mercedes cars with that stuff in mind, yet BMW driver's seem to be the one's enjoying their cars and tracking them frequently, or ripping up canyon roads. BMW's 50/50 distribution, straight 6 pioneering, manual gearbox with rear wheel drive, and a more focused driving approach makes it a winner in my books. Yes i'm biased, not because I own an E46 M3 and an E46 328i and other bimmers, but because I beat the hell out of them daily and track them in the summer and they really are the Ultimate Driving Machines. As far as the stock sound goes, the AMG sounds much nicer, though the straight 6 engines BMW has are the nicest sounding engines PERIOD. Maybe an exhaust mod in the future will make them sound nicer than stock. I don't mind the stock sound either but its too muffled down by those twin turbos.

[@647killa]

halabi97 dude wth are you talking about? No wonder your comment is spam ROFL. Try going to a track in your life and then see how many Mercedes are being enjoyed in the same way a BMW is enjoyed. Stop talking out your ass buddy cuz I don't just own a miserable 4 cylinder BMW, I own and track an E46 M3 and no Merc I've driven, AMG or not, gives any sort of driving experience for me. Hell Benz hasn't made a manual gearbox in over 50 years lol and their cars are simply made to cruise the autobahn as fast and in as much comfort as possible. Fun is a subjective thing and If you think fun means pointing in a straight line and stepping on the gas, whilst holding the steering wheel, well that's your definition of fun. And yes BMW uses straight 6 because they are the only manufacturers of a straight 6 engine and have been doing it well for decades. I see Benz fanboy-ism in you and yet at the same time you are talking out your ass. Please go out and drive some real cars kid.

[@joeytrambel]

647killa You gonna be a Benz fan Quik then, BMW is gonna didge the strait 6 and go's v6 in future is the rumor.. And Benz go's back to inline 6.. BMW is not what it used to be, face it Halabibi is right..!!

[@647killa]

Wth you on about ? Lol. I suppose u work at bmw. Well guess wut smart ass, everything is gonna go hybrid or electric so your smart ass might as well buy a Tesla model S and ve a fan of it. As long as there is demand, bmw is gonna make I6 engines like they have been for over 30 years now. Why on earth would they go V6, like what's difference is that gonna make? Plz stop riding Halabi 'halabibi lolzz' and talk sense next time. It doesnt hurt to admit that you hate bmw and think Benz is better, while driving your fart can civic. Oh and plz use spell check.

[@647killa]

Oh and for the record Mr. Talk-out-my-ass, the M156 Benz V8 is used in like 10 different AMGs. Think e63, sl63, clk 63, s63, r63, etc. So they have used the engines in so many AMGs. Don't prove me wrong and use the internet next time. They got Google for a reason u know. Have a nice day kid.

[@TheStigHCE09]

647killa While Mercedes' are many times more common with an automatic gearbox, they have used a manual gearbox since the 80s, the most recent offering being the R171 SLK-Klasse which is only 5 years old or so. Also if you've taken a drive of recent M (post-Fxx) and AMG (2011+) vehicles you will find that they've almost completely switched personalities. The AMG won this comparison on driving pleasure and character which is, as you'd know being the die-hard BMW fanboy, what ///M used to be renowned for. This also rings true for the C's bigger brothers, particularly the E63 which has put the F10 M5 in its place in every criteria relating to dynamics and feel. AMG's current range of V8s also silences ///M for character and even outputs. By all means continue living in the past where your golden era of ///M cars is. But unfortunately that does not relate to the present.

[@jaikee9477]

I love the M4, but the c63 AMG 507 clearly is the better car here.

[@SnorkZiE]

I love both cars, but I would personally choose the M4. But It's a tough choice.

[@stretch90]

Jaikee GER It doesn't perform better overall, just in a straight line

[@mthalali]

Didn't expect a comparison between these two cars this quickly after launch. Thanks guys!

[@MetalsForBrunch]

2015 c63 amg v8 twin turbo will eat the new m4

[@Powaup]

In a straight line for sure but on a track? that's a different ball game. M3s have never been straight line cars to begin with. The new C63 will also be much more expensive than the M4. That said, I think it's gonna be a beast and look forward to seeing it on the road. Cheers

[@halabi97]

Powaup Not really, the C63 is more fun on the track even if it's a tenth or 2 slower, and the normal C63 will not be more expensive than the M4, this is the edition 507

[@Powaup]

halabi97 ur right! I thought the C63 was like 7K more starting price

[@weed46]

Powaup The C63 black series is faster than the M3, and on par with M3 GTS in track

[@Powaup]

Narciso Oliveira keyword: black series

[@Alps6408]

The M4 is a boring car, looks good but just a typical BMW. You can't compare the C63 to the M4, the C63 is in a class of its own.

[@torogami2]

This was a terrible test. The AMG costs $11k more with the option adding 50 extra power. Why not compare the SlS amg to the M4, or the old SLR while we're at it?

[@ivarmarkusson382]

the m4 with dct actually cost almost as much

[@torogami2]

If the AMG won as standard, with 450hp, I would be fine, but don't take the already more expensive car and ad more options to it.

[@torogami2]

Maybe, because they do rarely lose.

[@torogami2]

Thanks for calling me a comedian. By the way, it's you're.

[@torogami2]

The reason bmw doesn't add 50 more hp is because it would make the car more expensive. The old M3 GTS had exactly 50 more hp, but it was also more expensive. This is the main point of my argument that everyone is too incompetent to understand. I just want equally priced cars competing.

[@DreamCarGarage1]

The AMG looks very dated, in fact it looked dated even when it first came out! Heavy looking and a touch flab sided, especially when the previous model CLK was a very elegant handsome car. The BMW by contrast looks bang up to date and even a little futuristic. Bring into play the extra torque, that will make it much easier for the average driver to extract serious performance, combined with the fact that unbelievably it's cheaper too means that's the one that gets my vote, though I'll order mine in a less garish colour.

[@jackbristol1994]

Like he said, the AMG is from a previous era. Obviously the BMW would look newer, its brand new 2014.

[@DreamCarGarage1]

sdfasdfvccvvc lol! Neither! I'm just commenting on 2 amazing cars neither of which I can afford to buy. Just spitballing an opinion like everybody else.

[@DreamCarGarage1]

Kobe B Obviously a Mercedes fan but unfortunately not a very informed one. To suggest that BMW has been getting 'annihilated' is a gross over statement. From their brand new M2 right the way through to their i8, not to mention their perennial over achiever the 5 series, BMW have been and remain an automotive benchmark, as do Mercedes. These are 2 big boys at the very top of their game. For the true car fan these are exciting times.

[@647killa]

Plz stop pulling information out ur arse. Being a fanboy is ok but being a misinformed fanboy proves you an idiot. Its ok, you can still love Benz even if its made for the older crowd and even if BMW trumps it as a benchmark that it has been.

[@derbigpr500]

Kobe B That's not true. M4 is better than C63 in every single way, you can be sure of that. Maybe it doesn't sound as nice, or doesn't have as good throttle response (it can't since it's turbocharged, it's not BMW's fault, it's just how the world spins), but those two things are very subjective as well, some people will even like the M4 sound better or prefer a smoother power delivery with more huge amounts of torque in the middle of rev range. In every other way it's better. It looks nicer inside and out, quality is much higher inside, it most probably handles far better and is faster on road and track, drives better since it's lighter, more agile, better balanced and has more grip, has a better gearbox, it's more comfortable, refined, safer, quieter, faster, more efficient, cheaper to run, more luxurious, better equipped, etc. You tell someone to "face it", yet you ignore absolutely every fact just in order to make your opinion more valid. I bet you any money that 9 out of 10 people would choose the M4 over C63 if they had a choice.

[@ManiakP0w3r]

+Fluterra funny how merc needs a 6.2l v8 to make 80 more hp, than the m4's 3L!!(which is less than half of the merc) straight 6, which also does 10 more mpg combined whilst kicking a merc's ass :D on a track,straight line, anywhere really, and its more comfortable and its also 11k less . with that kind of money you can get a much better exhaust and a tune and a lot more hp than the merc whilst still being more economical !

[@Fluterra]

+ManiakP0w3r "There's no replacement for displacement"! If you watch and read ALL the comparisons between the M3/4 and the 507, the 507 wins. I'd rather have real steering feel, no lag, an exhaust note that is not a recording played through my speakers, and reliability - even if it costs a little more. It's worth it. (Actually my 2015 507 lease is considerably less than a 2015 M4).

[@hamlettelmah441]

I've owned few AMG's and few M models and i have a F82 M4 that is my daily right now. I love every single one of them in their own way but my heart has always been with the M models.

Maybe around where you are they happen to be Arabs and grandpas but around where i live it's all ages and ethnicities driving both the benz and the bmw. I prefer mine over the Benzo but I have owned some in the past. 2 Bad, BM over Benz any day, sorry but that's my take on the two

[@Fluterra]

Weight distribution - check the stats on the C63 507 and you'll see that it's the same as the M4. The problem with the current gen M3/4 is the engine. It sounds incredibly lame. And, like all M cars, they fall apart. Good luck keeping yours out of the shop! The 6.2L V8 is one of the greatest engines ever built. Check out the reviews if you don't believe me, including several from Chris Harris. The current gen M3/4 engine will be forgotten in 3 years.

[@slim2979]

Had both, in fact had M4 and 4 C63 w204’s in estate, coupe and saloon. C63 rules for me. Drama, noise, fun and smiles all day long. M4 is great but it’s too mechanical, all the excitement is done for you, just turn wheel and put foot down. C63 keeps you on toes :-)

A typical MB vs. BMW video. How do you know the Mercedes wins? Look at the butthurt BMW fanboys dislikes bar. The fact the 'old' C63 steers better than the lighter M4 is a disappointment. The inline 6 TT also sounds like crap vs. the old S54 and to other great i6TT like the Nissan RB26. I don't also like how BMW ressurected the 'piss color' used on the E46. The only credit I give BMW M division is the sheer grunt & the pretty good DCT.

[@SergeantMoetz]

Take the money and buy a M3 CSL or a regular E46 M3 with manual transmission and low mileage, bump some aftermarket extras in it and you got a far more exciting car than the new M4.

[@647killa]

Although the V8 M3 was nice, i'm glad the straight 6 engines are back in an M3 errr M4. I love this M4 and the fact that it comes with a manual box, but a screaming S54 will always be my favourite ///M engine.

[@647killa]

Ya the CSL is hard to find but a regular M3 is amazing enough for doing everything and anything. I actually would prefer an e46 M3 over everything else, but we can't say too much about the new kid on the block yet. Its got enough time to shine.

[@blueline7974]

*****

[@sbscottw]

I doubt that is true, the new M4 is going to be more exciting than an E46 or CSL because of the turbos & torque. Don't get me wrong, I had an E46 M3 and loved it and have driven the E92 but they are not gonna compare to the M4.

[@youngdrug5927]

AMG all the way. Mercedes Benz, the Best or nothing.

[@tomturbo3067]

if you had a clue about that, you would have known that these cars can't compared with each other.

[@youngdrug5927]

tom turbo well this a base M4 even the M3 GTS is slower than the c63 BS in a straight line or the track the nuburging lap time speaks for its self. End of discussion.

[@tomturbo3067]

it's different engine size, you don't get it. It's not the same league!

[@youngdrug5927]

The Mercedes Benz C63 AMG 507 Edition has 507 hp not 500!

BMW almost did on a 4.0 L what Merc did on a 6.2 L , that gonna mean something , old E92 was 414 and C63 like 450 ? Bmw sounds like a sportcar , Merc sounds like a Muscle Car , and Merc needs to update their fucking interior

[@MrIlikeCorona]

[@sjd009]

Didn't realize how little the horsepower increase was on the new M4 vs E92 V8.

[@MikePT15]

Only 10hp but torque incrised 150nm. Plus its more efficient.

[@ElTyranto]

Miguel Pereira Jeah it should be something like 40% more torque, starting from 1850 rpm. 80kg lighter, 25% less fuel-usage and 30% less emission

[@sjd009]

I think it's because they will offer a Competition Package soon and bump it up to where it should have been around 450hp

[@pascutia]

It's all about the massive torque increase that it got!

[@juancho939]

Yeah! I was surprised too Just 9 horsepower more. But much more torque.

[@BestCarSound]

Nothing wrong with M4 engine noise, only problem is that STUPID, sorry, fake-sound-maker through speakers!

[@BigLukeyBoi]

There is no fake sound. The engine sound is played through the speakers.

[@BestCarSound]

Would be great when in mood, but not on some nice cruise. Still think it's electronical sound

[@derbigpr500]

Rihards Mors Have you heard it in person? You'd never in a million years realize it's fed trough speakers unless someone told you so, well at least in the M5, and system in M4 is probably even better. And people don't even understand how it works....it's not like they're playing an engine noise trough speakers like when you play a video game or something....it's very complicated acoustical engineering at work in order to make the car quiet inside in terms of unwanted noise.

[@BigLukeyBoi]

Kobe B The M5 sound is synthesized. The M4 has the natural sound played through the speakers, so there won't be an issue with it synchronising because there isnt a computer creating the sound like in the M5.

[@BestCarSound]

derbigpr500 OK, will try to stay quiet

[@oneman7638]

Everyone in the comment section keeps talking about the big V8's and the inline 6 and sounds and this and that.. and I'm sitting here in my behemoth bmw m5 e60 with a 6 speed manual listening to its beastly gurgle of a 5.0L V10 straight piped.

[@HPhenomenal]

William B Toyota has the highest sales. Does that mean it's better than BMW?

[@MrIlikeCorona]

i didn't said anything better. ur thinking too far. im just saying when u compare it. its not even durable -,- just like the MB its not even durable compare to Lexus but does that make lexus better than mercedes benz? if u compare the comparison. no matter how much good u r in the sales. ur recall proves the quality of the car...

[@BenzinioB]

William B Most of this buyers doesn't have the skills or the knowledge that the automotive presenters have. So their opinion is not relative to the quality or the performance of the cars. And there is also the problem with the personal preferences - there will always be a people who are ready to buy not so good car from their favourite brand... and of course there is also the price problem - Merc is not for poor people ;)

[@MrIlikeCorona]

[@mato911]

This is by far, my the most favourite review of the 507, for years. I have finally purchased my own 507 today. And U know whats funny? It has exactly the same configuration as the one in video. Interior and exterior (except the steering wheel side). Its still one of the best cars you can get if you are considering the value for money. The german engeneering at its best and still affordable.

Its much more fun to drive bmw

[@maksymprotsko1373]

Rheece Peters real AMG 0-60 time is 3.9 seconds and the AMG sounds wayyy better than a M4

[@richieasian]

I have an f30 335i and while I'm not amazed at the sound of it, I feel like I don't drive it hard enough to even notice the sound. Most of the time, I'm shifting at 2,000 rpm and listening to music. Even when i'm passing someone, I don't even notice any engine noise. Of course, on the rare occasion when I do want to have fun, I put it into sport mode only to be disappointed by the lack of engine noise. My point is, it's nice to hear that AMG V8 burble but I can live without it and I'm pretty sure other people can too.

[@zolawrx]

ummm you drive a 335i not a m4 so stfu. It's like saying I drive a nissan sentra and I think it's pretty slow. I wonder if GTR is any faster.

[@richieasian]

zolawrx who cares

[@ThirdLife86]

Sure, if you want a sportscar without any emotion you can live without a nice aural experience. If you love cars - you can't. BMW only has one advantage right now: the other new performance sedans are not out yet. Lets see how it does against the new C63, new RS5 and ATS-V.

[@kaiwenli3432]

Actually for that price I would go for a second hand C63 BS.. One level higher than Both Normal M4s and C63 507. BLACK SERIES FTW

[@austincorbin859]

+Kevin Li (Apex) The 507 edition is actually faster than the black series lol

[@kaiwenli3432]

Austin Corbin You mean straight line wise?its similar.. 507 still has the normal C63's Tires+Aerodynamics+suspensions. 255 Section rear max 275with spacers. and the overheating oil cooler that you need to pay AMG $3K for a upgrade, and the non-standard LSD..yup getting a BS

[@michaelblundetto9115]

But the BS isn't as functional a daily driver as the 507. I would buy the 507 and upgrade it to handle like the Black Series.

[@kaiwenli3432]

Michael Blundetto ....any C63 is ? Please. M3, C63, These are not Fucking daily drive to me. C63's suspension is so hard that your bottom fell off. Drove it for at least a month, didnt work out well. Not so comfy on shitty american roads.

[@michaelblundetto9115]

The 507 is more a daily driver than the M4. Any sports car from the factory with a warranty is designed to be a daily...hence the warranty. Don't daily drive it in Sport+ then and you'll see a difference lol. My E55 was comfortable as hell in Comfort suspension mode. And yes I did daily drive it comfortably. No auto maker would put Massaging Seats in something that couldn't be a daily so I don't buy that. Sorry man.

[@ECoutinhoR]

This is a really, really good reviwie. Altough Steve Sutcliffe choosed the C63 (wich is the one i would choose too) he put all the points in the right place, in the sense of not having to be limited to say the M4 is much better.... No, he said the C63 is an excellent example but with characteristics of its era. The same happens with the M4, lighter, with a gearbox with faster speedshifts etc.. Therefore contextualized both cars. So, once again, an excellent test where everything was handled as it should.

[@666demonknight666]

I'm sure the C63 AMG 507 doesn't have duel clutch.

[@SerenIsAMonsta]

Since so many Merc fans are frantically pointing out that a last generation car, (the c63), beat the brand new M4, we have to acknowledge the fact that the last gen M3 consistently beat, and still beats, the Merc. According to this reviewer, the M4 lost purely due to its engine - it's lack of throttle response, sound, and overall excitement compared to the c63, despite the performance advantage it gives the BMW over the Merc. The E92 M3's V8 remedies all these complaints - it's lightweight components and low inertia gave it superb throttle response that shames the c63 and anything outside of a Ferrari or GT3. And then there was its sound - at its 8300 rpm rev limit the E92's V8 makes a wonderful sound unlike anything else. The Merc sounds great, but the noise of the race-bred M3 revving past 8000 makes the c63's corvette-like rumble boring by comparison. These two factors alone, throttle response and sound, mean the old M3 would have spanked the c63 by this reviewers standards. Add to that the M3's better chassis, gearbox, and lighter weight, (all traits shared and improved upon by the M4), and its clear that the addition of turbos to the M4 is the only reason the the car isn't being declared the greatest sports car in decades. I did find it odd though that the reviewer in this video found the throttle response so lacking with the Beemer, as every other opinion I've read on the M4 has praised the throttle response and adjustability it retains with the turbos.

[@BeastModeDR614]

M Power! The Beemer just looks meaner and better

[@samakshuppal]

Bmw any day! It's devil looks, handling, better cabin, and fuel economy make it a much better choice. The Merc has a better motor.

[@MrGuyOhh]

sooo I'm an audi guy, and what I'm getting from this review is that the M3 is better in almost every category except for the sound???? Bitch please, I'll take the M4

[@rousseau327]

Did you even watch the video?

[@Baltahfeek]

The reason you buy a car like this is for the engine. You don't buy it for the ecology, or for the interior cabin "modernness", nor for the carbon roof top, the gasoline savings, you buy it for the fun of driving, the throttle response, the sounds of the engine the sporty feeling, the satisfaction you get when you park your car at the end of the day is why you buy it. With every review I become more assured that my 2013 M3 coupe competition package is the way to go for now. I was thinking of the new M4 so I drove a pre-production one at the dealership and got the same feeling as this reviewer did. He is absolutely right. I think I've got a collector's item on my hands now.

I don’t think you were in manual in that 507... there is a massive difference in shifts between sports+ and manual. Also the 507 is surely massively faster than stock - you would surely notice 10% power uplift in any car? Glad you got the right conclusion though🤠The 507 makes you feel special simple as that...

[@p.zamora6576]

c63 amg is a one trick pony. I've driven both cars.. Yes c63 sounds better blah blah blah but m4 driving feel and overall driving experience was closer to a true track ready commuter car than the c63. Hands down.

[@tagerung90]

assume the exhaust actually sounds bad (point of perspective) 1)if you can afford an m4, you can also afford the exhaust that will turn it good again 2) BMW is kind of playing it smart, by the time Mercedes and Audi get their turbo game in play BMW will be putting the finishing touches on theirs. doesn't change the fact though that I can't afford one and will have to make due with my e46 M for now... which in my opinion for 60.000 lbs added on I could make pure perfection for my tastes with plenty left over for the mpg differentiation.

[@MosesRides]

Is there going to be a new c63?

[@gianhet]

Yes, probably with a 4.0 litre bi turbo v8

[@juukame]

gianhet And even with the turbos, Mercedes will still manage to make it sound amazing.

[@MohamedOsama-zf6vw]

yes soon but with other engine sadly there is no 6.2 L v8 again it will be 4 L not n.a

[@gianhet]

Mohamed Osama I'm sure it will be a great engine, the E class for instance, has already a bi turbo v8, and it's still great :)

[@rousseau327]

Which begs the question, if Mercedes can make turbocharged engines sound and feel fantastic, why can't BMW? Really a low point in BMW history.

[@torogami2]

costing $11k more with option adding 50Bhp isn't really fair. That's like comparing a standard 3-series to an M3. If they want to compare a standard C63, which would still be more expensive, the M4 would easily win the performance figures.

[@Kprawl291986]

I rather purchased a pre owned 2008-09 M3 with Natural Aspirated V8

[@hunghuge7717]

I don't understand why the M4 doesn't rev harder? The whole idea of sequential turbos is to widen the power spread. Why go to all that trouble then let it tail off around 6500? When this engine is 425hp and the diesel X50M is only 25hp behind it kind of makes you wonder why the petrol isn't making a LOT more.

[@hunghuge7717]

***** That would be fair enough in the 335i. In an M car there's no reason they couldn't build it strong but light with better parts (ti conrods, etc) then let it sing. Even the old S50B32 from the 90's does 7400rpm (also peak power is at the limiter so there's room for more) and takes boost very well when aftermarket systems are applied. I think the problem with the new one stems from it being based on the new engine which is fairly lazy in it's architecture anyway. That said making it hold it's power and torque another 1000rpm wouldn't be asking much for an M.

[@ForTehNguyen]

you have to trade off engine response for high end power in turbo cars. Small turbos spool fast and give boost earlier but cant flow enough air to feed the engine at high rpms. You cant get power everywhere with turbo, always a trade off. Funny thing is the turbos muted the engine tone so much they have to play artificial engine tone through the audio system

[@hunghuge7717]

ForTehNguyen But that's the point of multiple turbo set ups. Small turbo for low end, big one for high end. In the 50D's case it's got three.

[@Wositsch]

hung huge The M3/M4 revs to 7300rpm. Can't you look at the specs?

[@RTX4080Gaming]

Turbo engines never rev as high as N/A engines. And they don't even need to. Just look at Formula 1, old V10 engines used to rev to over 20.000 rpm, while today's turbos rev to 15.000 tops.

The video doesn't do the sound of the C63 engine note any justice. It sounds way better in real life. The audio in the clip only portrays that chopping sound of a v8, but in the streets it's always accompanied by a deeper rumble that always surrounds the chopping. The rumble has an entire personality of it's own. The reviewer isn't lying about the engine

He personally prefers the C63. It is subjective. I would take the M4 1000 times before I even look at that cheap looking Accord coup rip off.

[@a3chowdh]

tht tells us u can't afford either other than an accord

[@stu1944]

I love my 507edition and with software and full exhaust system you unlock much more grunt 😊 also they fixed the transmission maps now

[@s7efan90]

LOL the new M4 is better and a lot cheapper than the C63 :)))) The new C63 has no chance ;) It can`t be better than the new M4, probably equal but still would be more expensive and not that economycal like the BMW.

[@GT-gt4bf]

Isn't it a sad day when the fanboys can only fin fuel efficiency as a good trait for the car?

[@WildChildXL]

What are you, 12?

[@s7efan90]

GT7786 WildChildXL Ok, 200kg more, uglyer(interior)..etc. The only good thing about the C63 is the sound ;) No, i`m not 12, i`m just real ;)

[@gianhet]

Turdeanu Stefan The cabin of the BMW looks like the one of the 1 serie.. The Merc's cabin looks classier.. The engine is better, as well as the steering, and the balance is close to perfect..

[@WildChildXL]

Turdeanu Stefan You're bragging about the fuel economy of a true Motorsport Technik car which you don't own. That gives you the mindset of a 12-year old fanboy. "The new C63 has no chance" - right. The new C 63 AMG hasn't even been launched yet and you already know all the details.

[@oliversperling1546]

The acceleration is Fake news. the AMG can accelerate ON 3.7 SEC

[@KhangTruong-fi8is]

m4 looks better but performance I would pick the AMG

[@konananimolaudzi7757]

+Khang Truong Perfomance over an M pOWERED CAR #Really Khang?

[@Dzonssi]

+konanani molaudzi +1 M is faster

[@TehZured]

Not faster than the c63s

[@Dzonssi]

TehZured yep

[@TehZured]

GrabuljA TV It's actually not. It's nearly half a second slower

[@JoLXP]

So the M4 does everything better than the C63 but at the end of the day it all comes down to which one makes the better noise? That's a decision made purely out of emotion...something you might regret later.

[@HodsBroo]

This dude is so annoying, trying to be Chris Harris so bad. Makes me cringe. Repeats the same thing over and over.

[@JonMcG]

Let me just weigh in here :) , I bought the BMW 335 3 month ago , love it , stunning car ( barring the steering ) KNOWING that the M3 has the same straight 6 engine as mine ( ok it has an extra turbo , geesh ) i can honestly say , what an engine , what a car , anyone that buys this M4 or M3 will NOT be dissapointed .

[@Salah.alkhalifa]

Another vote for the M4...

[@roberthoffman6823]

C63 AMG 507 is still 10K expensive. How about you compared the base model? Also, what happened to your chase videos on a closed circuit?

[@M4DVILLAIN]

sure just compare the old w204 with the brand new f30 tha's fair

[@jannissen9211]

what are they supposed to compare it to?

[@M4DVILLAIN]

Jan Nissen i don't know maybe wait for the nw one? kinda unfair if you ask me, even though i don't like the new design this one is KINDA obsolete

[@jannissen9211]

tigran2945 I understand, the car is old by now. But they probably wanted a quick comparison with the new M4. Waiting for the new C63 would take too long. But isnt the engine in the C63 not being produced anymore?

[@Bundook911]

still the merc came out on top though

[@jannissen9211]

Rami Bondok Yeah, Steve Sutcliffe prefers the AMG, I guess as he likes the car the way it is, power over anything. I myself would still get the M4 but the C63 is amazing, especially for it being a couple of years old now.

[@Guerilla_law3516]

I'd like to know what settings, i.e. steering, throttle suspension etc., the M4 was in for most of this test. In particular the setting for throttle as it seems a main complaint was a lack of throttle response but that is variable with onboard computers etc.

[@mariuszanfir2298]

I know the AMG sounds better and I understand you love it, but, please, show more footage of the new car rather than the old one. It felt like the AMG just got launched and the M4 was the old hag. Talk more about the small bits of the M4, how different feels the chassis and suspension when compared with the e92 M3 for example? How different it feels from a regular 3 series?

[@670lamborghini]

Would definitely take the M4, but with another exhaust :P I think it looks better than the c63....that yellow color is cool too!
