In India, the BMW M3 is the best two-door sports coupe money can buy. Audi recently launched the RS5 coupe with an intention to take on the M3. The RS5 might well be a four-wheel drive coupe unlike the BMW but it still is no match of the daddy of sports coupes.

Mercedes Benz India now want a piece of the action and they’ve fielded the 2012 AMG C63 coupe against the other two Germans. Until now, the M3 was the obvious choice however, with the C63 AMG’s arrival, making a choice between the two just got a bit difficult.
The C63 AMG Coupe has a 6.2 litre AMG tuned V8 under its bulging hood. 451 bhp is what you get from 6200 cc of naturally aspirated AMG fury. 100 kph comes up in just 4.5 sec and top speed is limited to 250 kph. So, performance is almost similar to the M3. An M3 comes with a six speed manual or an paddle operated semi-automatic. In the big Merc though, an AMG’s seven-speed Speedshift automatic has been thrown in.

Apart from this, there are the usual AMG touches to make you feel comfortable and special at the same time. On the exterior, the car is distinguishable from its AMG front splitter, LED daytime running lights, side air vents, five-spoke AMG alloy wheels, bespoke side sill panels, a rear diffuser and twin chrome exhaust tips.
Inside, you get ablend of Alcantara and sporty silver bits. AMG performance steering wheel (coated in Alcantara if you specify the Performance Package), metallic trim; AMG sports seats, covered with a new breathable man-made fibre called Dinamica, and piano black finish on the instrument panel. Irrespective of how much the C63 AMG coupe costs, I would still prefer the M3.
