im thinking of selling my merc c63 amg for something with more throttle response and feel for quick sunday morning blasts"

the mercs a animal the way that power come in with low down torq" but there is that split second pause before eneything! Also cars very jerky most times eaven in comfort"

iv had a bmw m4 coupe in 2014 when 1st came out! was very fast car and good ride and not to harsh! but that sound! just dead to me!

whots best out of e46 m3 cs/csl or e92 m3 or maybe 1m or m2 ?

E46 M3 CSL....

Dont worry about the power drop from the merc, they are in different leagues for handling and throttle response.

Plus it'll feel more special, and hold its value.

yah do like the e46 m3 csl but only did them in a slow clunky auto box for the uk I think? and the prices have gone crazy at minute"

60k+ for a good lower mile car! don't think you"ll make eney money on these know! May eaven start dropping?

about the E46 m3 cs? most the best parts from the csl and lot better priced and stick shift

How does the E46 m3 compare with the E92 m3 v8 ? iv not drove eather! The v8 engine will probley kill the e46 in all ways! But is the E46 more sharp and crisp when you nail the gas!

You must go through cars like I go through hot dinners.

You had an RS5 just a few short months ago and were considering an M4 or M2.

Now you have a C63 and are wondering if you should get an older M-series car.

I think you should get whatever Matchbox toy you can afford with your pocket money.

Slow and clunky compared to what? It's not an auto box and shouldn't be thought of as such. It's miles better than the traditional manual the E46 has. Which is slow and clunky. The SMG in the E46 suits the car perfectly, especially when pressing on.

The CS is a run out M3 with slightly bigger breaks and CSL style wheels. It certainly doesn't have most of the parts of the CSL.
Look whot EVO review said about the E46 m3 cs buddy"

main thing is the cs e46 has got the same quicker steering rack as csl " also revised springs" bigger brakes and 19 alloys"

at less than half the price"

Generally these things are solved by the custard test.
Image of your C63 with a packet of birds custard on it/in it.
(Else some other non standard thing that you would have kitchen if you dont have custard).
If you can drop outside quickly and do it now.
Interior shot with the foodstuff on the driver seat would be perfect.

Without this people will question your never ending stream of lovely cars.
HaHa yah right mate! I"ll do a video of myself running necked around Tesco car park also lol

From my personal experience in both, i would say very little performance difference, the V8 most certainly does not kill the straight 6 3.2...

What you'll find if you drive both back to back is the E46 is sharper, feels lighter and more responsive. It has more edge or thats how i felt, and given the price differences when i looked to trade my E46 for a E92 i couldn't see it as worth the extra money (to me anyway)

E92 is a better cruiser, has more toys, is more uptodate with things like its Nav, hi-fi, and interior is newer looking but i'm not so sure its better built, and the seats i prefer in my E46.

Try both if you can, i had the option of trying back to back as i own the E46 and went to view/drive a E92 at a main dealers, and came away very happy to keep my E46. (this was 4 years ago now)

All that said, the V8 engine is really nice, makes a nice sound and Revs nice and high.

If i hadn't already got my E46 (and had more space!) i would most certainly have a E92!

Andy
sounds like you love your e46 buddy" is the e46 m3 cs worth the extra over the e46 m3 ?

where you from mate? id like a drive of your m3 e46 and you can blast my 2016 merc c63 amg mate

But how smooth or nochey is the box in a E46 M3 To say the more moden 1m coupe ? wich did drive about 6 years ago and was very close to buying at the time! Wish I would have before the prices had gone off the wall""
Last manual car I had was a green mk2 rs focus and Nissan 370z nismo"" both I miss really as more fun on a sunday morning or dash to the shops!

and there are manual CSL e46 cars for sale on autotrader"" so these are none uk cars? and would that make them less of collectors car and less value in the uk?
