After several M3's I'll never own another.

At one time I'd say BMW > Merc all day every day, but it's not as true as it once was. I'd still take the BMW, but the M3/M4/Whatever they are now aren't as raw as they used to be.

I think the M4 looks better but I've heard mixed reviews on them. Apparently BMW pipes in fake exhaust noise through the speakers because the turbos muted the growl

Drive a S5 or even a RS5 after those two and you'll be disappointed... Unless luxury not performance is the priority.

C63. That inline 6 in the BMW sounds like dogshit.

I like the Benz tablet screen better. Is it touch screen?

So you mean supercars over $175k? These cars are a different class. You can drive these to work every day.

That's like saying a Mercedes G Wagon isn't a luxury car because it isn't a Rolls Royce Phantom.

Nope. It looks like it should be.

I'm not a fan of the tablet style. It's a polarizing design. It's probably just a matter of getting used to it.
