Bit disappointed with W205 C63, miss my RS3
Discussion
Hey everyone,
Definitely a first world problems, I had my C63 Coupe for about two months now and honestly I am a bit disappointed.
Unless I drive it like a complete yobo, going sideways and seriously going past speed limit (private roads
) it doesn't make me giggle or even put smile on my face.
I had PFL RS3 8v before the C63 and honestly it felt more fun, had more character. I enjoyed the 5 cylinder more than a V8, the sound my RS3 produced, the pops and bangs just made me smile and under load it felt more special. AMG was supposed to be an upgrade but it feels like I haven't fully connected with it and it really hasn't put smile on my face or make me giggle.
It feels as the car comes out of its shell at speed that is unreasonable, whilst I could just drive around city in the RS3 doing the speed limit and just giggle as it felt special, I could be asbo without doing any dangerous stuff.
I started catching myself back on autotrader looking at RS3s.
Am I overexaggerating or did anyone else experience similar?

Hey Guys, Thanks for the replies.
After reading through some of your input, I just want to confirm that I don't hate the C63, just doesn't give me the same feeling as the RS3.
With regards to W204 C63, I looked at few of them and completely disregarded them, I love the engine in the car but it doesn't appeal to me as I daily my cars.
Additionally, I wouldn't say RS3 is a boring car like some said here, unless you track your cars (which I don't).
I'll definitely will keep it for at least a year or so, maybe it will grow on me. It doesn't make sense getting rid of it so quick in the ownership.
Just wanted to get an opinion if anyone else had similar feeling when they changed cars.
Thank you for your replies
