Which German speedster did you think would win - the heavier one with the more powerful turbo-four, or the lighter one with a less potent straight-six? Let us know in the comments!
They completely forgot why people bought the amgs over m cars in the past. The AMG options were always for people that didn't need the most capable car, but rather the Wilder, livelier, and more dramatic V8 alternative.
That’s because BMW bumps the boost up on their turbos when you go in the launch mode. That advantage disappears on a roll. But the scenario was purely physics. That 4800 pound C-class couldn’t get out of its own way. There was a time the M3 was a great car.
Mercedes/AMG sure as hell didn’t insist on this underperforming, fat turd. They were 100% forced. Government regulations in Europe, China and the US forced this BS on us all. I have no doubt AMG would still be making v8 c63 if it wasn’t for government regulations strangling the ICE.
BMW is by far the best motorist of the 3 german premium brand And i say that as a french guy, we are proud to have such a brand in Europe even tho i'm more on an Audi sport enthusiast

Thanks guys. Another great video. The C63 is an INCREDIBLE car. For 10 seconds! After that the battery is dead. Its power drops from 500kw to 425kw. This result is no surprise. It’s power to weight after 10 seconds is worse than the old V8
For 900 pounds heavier, the Benz actually held up pretty well lol. The real question is just - why? A 4cyl hybrid is definitely not what the market wants.
Because of regulations being forced on us all. From Europe, China and the USA. They are doing this, not AMG. Mercedes is forced to make worse cars now. Because batteries and motors are made from magic ferry dust with no negative impact on the world…
@@mks1702 may not be a discernible disadvantage on paper but I do have questions on how long it can produce that output before the battery needs to be recharged by the ICE. But I’d never want to be lugging around an extra 900lbs which not only impacts acceleration but also braking and cornering abilities.
@MvpAcceleration21 There's a pretty common theme between BMW and Merc/Audi the last few years. The BMW destroys both while the other two are competitive.
They have the same power to weight ratio on paper, which means in reality BMW has the edge as they understates their hp. The AMG should’ve launched much better than that given the hybrid powertrain.
As a Merc fan, I am happy the 4 pot shows its flaws with the idiotic weight (heavier than the E63s) and lack of punch. Also ridiculous boot space even in the Estate version. Hopefully AMG and especially its stubborn, stupid CEO realise this magnanimous failure. Once said that, that M3 CS has *WAY MORE* power than it says. As usual in Bimmers to be honest
I’m just trying to remember when customers were calling for Mercedes to take the C 63 AMG and make it a 2 L turbo charged. I don’t understand why these people do that. Nobody wants a four-cylinder turbo charged hundred thousand dollar plus vehicle that gets its ass handed to it by a car with 100 less horsepower. They must have taken a page out of the dodge book.
I think by now we all know how underrated BMWs are from the factory. A lot less power (on paper) than the Mercedes and it was pulling away the whole time.
I disagree, GT500 is fast af. Just not a good launch car due to traction and rear wheel drive. The car is literally reeling z06 in at the end. This C63, however, is just bad
Have you seen what the Mercedes v8 e hybrid power train on other Mercedes cars? S63 SE, GT63 SE and the SL63 SE - they are all over $200k and faster than any other car. Mercedes couldn’t give this car the v8 and price it at $100k.
We already knew that the M3 CS would destroy the C63 S E Performance. I still want to see the M3 Competition xDrive go up against the C63. If it also beats the C63 then that would be a huge disappointment to a lot of people.
No proper channel or journalists have done it properly. both hagerty and this channel have bizarrely chose to race the c63 against the waaaay more expensive m3cs like the m3 comp doesnt exist. no idea why all these "reputable" people are doing this. i think the difference between a comp and the c63s is about $9k where as this comparison the difference is $32k.
albeit that at the start of the release of any M3 there is always some critique, up until now BMW hasn't really ever made a "bad" M3, they're always fun and engaging machines to drive, with the CS/CSL (and some other more exotic iterations that were released in the past) being the little cherries on top.
Atleast the upcoming CLE63s Coupe will have a pure V8 no hybrid and stuff ❤this one is a failure 😢but there is a video on Carwow where this C63s E was destroying an M3 touring and an RS4 comp rematch please C63s V8 W205 vs M3 CS ❤😅😊
M3's insane for being able to put down 2s for 0-100 km/h. There's not many cars that can do that especially if you consider those that put down similar power as the M3.
"BMW does launching better than any other manufacturer"... Oh, come on now... that statement is quite a stretch! At any rate, I knew the Bimmer was going to take the win despite it's power deficit. With a 913 pound weight difference between these two, predicting the outcome was an absolute no-brainer. Also, I wouldn't be a bit surprised if the Bimmer's power rating is underrated, anyway.
I love these races, I'd be interested to see them supplemented by a straight up roll race. I know in this case the BMW would still win, but id be curious to see by how much when you take the launch out of the equation
When carwow did 3 roll races between them, the C walked away from the M3 each time. So yeah, the C doesn't do well in a drag but from a roll it's a beast.
@scorped76 that's crazy to think about, bc here it looked like the M was pulling away from the C even at higher speeds. Even the Trap speed at the end was about 3 mph higher for the M
I always said these Mercedes AMG S E Performances plug-in hybrids does NOT stand a chance against the CS BMW M-cars... Can't wait to see a vid of the M5CS vs the AMG GT63 S E Performance though☠
Although that is true, a regular M3 comp xdrive would have been a better opponent since the Merc is all wheel drive and that M3 is not just less pricey that the AMG it came in even quicker than the CS
I love these vids but watching them brake through braking zone pains me to watch. They could have braked much later in the M3 CS…stand on those brakes as hard as you can, then release pressure to rebalance the car and enter the corner. 🙂
The story of this U-Drag is told toward the beginning, when you post the stats side by side: a 1,000 lbs (one thousand!) difference between the two. This C63 will go down in history as one of the biggest product fails by Mercedes.

That’s exactly why I went with black wheels on my green CS
I knew what the results will be even before watching the video. Spec for spec, the BMW is ALWAYS faster than the Merc and I’m not even a BMW fan
Would love to see Civic Si vs Civic Hybrid...... Or Civic Si vs Elantra N Line
It’s safe to say that the BMW was, once again, quite conservative on power rating.
@edmundscars I’d like to see an Edmunds U-drag race between the G80 M3 CS and the G90 M5
