I should have known better than to post, as most people would either not read my post, just the title or read my post and not care because in their head all they see is CAMARO VS C63...

Both cars are capable of making me completely happy... (ME)

... i'll just wait to drive a Camaro to make my final decision, then I'll just wait until it's time to buy and see if anything has changed between the two. Maybe I won't even care for either car when it comes down to finally buying myself a car.... we'll see.

Anyways, my mistake for making this thread.

edit: maybe it will make more sense if I said the Camaro has more of a sentimental value variable to it...

Well let me apologize then for my part in the downward spiral the thread took. Those of us who have been around here for a while have become a little jaded in the VS section of the forums.

They aren't really legitimate cross shopping vehicles. If you buy the Camaro- it will be for the completely emotional aspect of it. It is an extraordinarily sharp car that has a lot of history with it, most of it pretty good. You won't be cross shopping from a performance aspect. The Camaro likely has the goods to keep you happy, but the Mercedes has the edge.

That is a great pic. I saw it and went wow- then literally the next website I looked at had the new pictures from hubble:

Sorry OP you can have your thread back now


Knowing the Camaro has more of a sentimental value to it... does make this thread make more sense! JMO

i would say the c63. it is faster and better handling then the camaro.+ mersedes' are great cars. i had an ml350 that lasted 34000miles without any problems and i sold it at 76000 miles. they are very reliable cars. i also had an e320 and i loved it.

Cool

Look at my post count, I don't post much so I'm not familiar with the way this section has become(deteriorated, if it has) so yeah.

We'll see how it turns out, if I decide against the Camaro for whatever reason, I'll be back and post them here anyways, just to share my experience

I don't like them, I have only sat in one and they're awesome but I'm not big on the styling... not for me. I have had an interest in the C63 since the new body style came out not to long ago... I just love it.

For now, I'll just keep saving, and planning until I'm ready to buy.


p.s. Saw a black one (camaro) today pulling into a McDonald's Sure was sexy, had not seen one on the street for a few weeks!

You dont like the styling on the M3? Jeeeeezeee I guess looks are subjective but I'd say the M3 is a much better looker than the C63. If you dropping over 50g's on a car, at least go out and test drive it and its competition

I might go test drive one, but BMW in general, they're styling has never made me go "daaaaaaayummm" lol, I might test drive one for fun, but if I'm not big on the styling why even bother?

Great machines though.
