I just love the C63. Great engine, gorgeous sound, astonishing performance - but still a good business or everyday-car.

I want one. Real bad. Test drove one a couple days ago and had the ASR kicking in at the first corner out the dealership. The salesman was about to shit himself. But why does Mercedes refuse to put a manual gearbox in this otherwise amazing car..they already have a manual box for the normal C's. It'd make the driving experience about 100000x more fun than it already is.

And I forgot to mention. I like how this car doesn't have 2 billion LED strips like all the other recent Mercs. And this looks so much more aggressive than the C63 that was teased a couple of days ago.

For the price difference, I would buy a CTS-V.
