Enjoy!

Sounds awful, no thanks.

Did the Mercedes driver say,"...keep an eye out for the noises in the car right now..." at the 3:07 mark?

The future sucks

This isnwhere the lines between ICE and EV are so blurry, that I don't even care that it's an ICE (electric assisted) vehicle still. At this weight and the horrible soundtrack, you might as well just pack it in and go EV. I don't get this at all...

That interior DESTROYS what we have in the M3/M4 IMHO.

AlexFL · 10-08-2022, 08:59 AM

Sounds like the 2.5T in my Kia Sorento.

I agree. Although I do wish it had some sort of instrument cluster cover over the tach screen...I don't like how it's just perched up there.

The whole reason I even test drove a C63S was the sound. Without that, it's just another boring C-class (I have zero desire for any electrification). For the interiors, while they look good, I found interacting with them revealing of quite a bit of cheap plastic. Maybe that's different with this one. The M5 isn't particularly lush, though, especially for what I'd expect for the price-point.

Yeah that does look a bit funny. However in comparison to the ID8 in some new BMW models, i think it's appropriate. The ID8 does look better in that sense however overall that C63S looks A LOT better than our interiors.

Same with your car the RS5, i like that interior better than my M3 lol.

Only reason why i got the M3 was because i know how powerful this engine is and not saying your RS5 is slow but stock vs stock the M3 is a lot faster and i know i might have regretted it once i put my foot down. The M3 is pretty damn fast stock. BMW always lies about their HP rating lol

Oh I don't question for a second that the M3 is more capable than the RS5. For me, I just wanted a more well rounded daily driver (softer if you will, but still VERY fast just not M3 Comp xDrive fast...but I'm fine with that). Also coming from a G20 M340i, I like the interior of the RS5 about the same (some good points and bad points for both). I do like the look of the G8x interior (ID7 not ID8) especially when optioned with their carbon buckets. The new C63 interior makes both the Audi and BMW interiors look old imo. Really well done.
