"AMG SPEEDSHIFT PLUS 7G-TRONIC"

Why have they called it "Plus"? Because it now rev-matches?

Probably because it's been overhauled and improved, as expected.

Sorry, BMW, it is time for you to add Turbo to your M3.

Even with the huge power advantage, I would be surprised to see the M3 beat this.

No alfistiDK, the C63 AMG has a power-to-weight ratio of 3.6/hp kg vs M3's 3.8 kg/hp
I love this car. I would get it if my family weren't getting a GL

AMAZING CAR. Beats the M3 in the looks department for sure. This beast makes the M3 look tame. Cant wait for the track tests between those 2.
