When AMG is not enough, better add 6.5L of Brabus. :lol:

BMW M5 - best hi-perf sedan ever!

Looking forward to the next generation with a V8 TT.

My favorite sedan to drive. Hmm.....
If I had no limitations , it would most definitely be the 2009+ Cadillac CTS-V IIRC
That car is just HOT in every way.

2nd favorite is the Mercedez C63 which actually performs better then the CTS-V

Actually the Motor Trend link you posted was for the E63. Good vid though.

I like Jeremy Clarkson's description of the AMG C63 in the vid below..."This is actually an ax murderer with headlights."

AMG detuned the 6.2 to 451 hp in the C63, but that's has been rectified by the aftermarket. They get 445 rwhp with simple bolt on mods. :)

In the same vid they also tested the Audi RS4 and the BMW M3 coupe in Spain at a great track.

Very funny stuff with the Stig in part 2 testing all 3. First though he does a lap in Emerson Fittapaldi's F1 Lotus that won the world championship in '72.





In a later episode of Top Gear after testing a M3 sedan and a Lexus 5.0 IS-F, Clarkson says the M3 does everything excellently. For him though the C63 was the most fun to drive...

"It's not a car, its a complete animal!"

"You don't really drive this car, you cling on for dear life!"

My 94 SHO That is "ESS AYCH OH" not 'SHOW"
handled pretty well for a Taurus, looked good, comfortable on long roadies (so much so that I am going to find SHO seats for my Cougar) ran 15's all day. Won me a few rounds at Sears Point on Wednesday nights. Cool car.
I used it up, and sold it with 185k on it.

Skip, I never really looked at the C63 much, but that is a badass car! Looks like 08 is the first model year I saw which makes it a little on the spendier side. Like to see them at least a few years old for that early depreciation hit eh. :)

My dad drives a 08ī C63 and itīs awesome. Huge power and way more fun to drive than the E55 or E63.

If you donīt need the size of an E-class Iīd highly recommend the C63!

Those C63 are no joke, it's like a V8 Honda Civic on roids, it's amazing how they were able to stuff that motor in tiny engine bay
