u crazy Abdul......? 3 series has been the best Compact Luxury Sedan for years....C Class was never able to beat the 3 series.....and I don't think it will yet be....

btw, i don't like the rear.....it seems a bit too small.

I am not crazy as you told Zoheb , I do believe that the C class will beat the 3 series in many division like cabin quality , materials , high tech equipement such panoramic roof , distronic and other things, diesel engines ,THE AMG VERSION POWERED BY the 6.2 liters V8 will make it hard to beat .
You know why people buy a BMW 3 series because of the name.But The c class is more confortable for more than 1 decade

Arnab car magazine tell that the new M3 will come with a V8 rated around 400 hp natural aspirated , the C 63 amg would have a 6.2 liters 480 hp maybe or more.But main difference will be braking system BMW cars usually brakes not as well as the Mercedes-Benz do

since when? here are some stats from car and driver magazine for braking 70-0 mph

BMW 325i = 161 feet
MB C350 Sport = 175 feet
MB C 55 AMG = 165 feet

BMW 530i = 176 feet
MB E350 = 182 feet

BMW Z4 M = 154 feet
MB SLK 55 AMG = 156

BMW M5 = 158 feet
MB CLS 55 AMG = 161 feet

BMW M6 = 155 feet
MB SL 55 AMG = 159 feet

u can see BMW beats MB on braking in all of them.

and abt the C63 AMG, lets wait till it comes out..........but right now, I would pick the RS4 anyday

Zoheb maybe those figs are true but in Europe carmagazine tell that BMW cars brake hard in the first times but after it doesn't last a longtime that's why Brembooffers a kit for M3 and other BMW

Standard brakes from any manufacturers fade with repetative usage, aftermarket brakes are designed not to fade as much. Cermic brakes harly brake at all even after a long hard day at the track. The Bimmer are known for the excellent braking always, that was not their concern over Mercs.

Please note Abdul that C63 uses a much more bigger engine than the M3. Unlike Merc, BMW does not use engines on the bigger series or M5 on their 3 series derivatives. You wont see a 3 series with a 750 engine or an M5 engine. Then you know how it would stand against the C63
