C63 for sure. No competition imo

Depends what you're looking for IMO. Can't go wrong with either. My vote goes for the E550 just cause I think it looks absolutely stunning.

I want the C63 but with 382 HP/ 391 TQ the E550 isn't exactly a slouch either.

Depends on what you're really going for, one is a 2 door, the other is a beast. Personally, I think the E550 is nicer looking and should be more luxurious but the C63 if you want speed.

For me E550 hands down. Both look sweet though.

Don't like 2 door cars. So from those two, the C63 AMG for sure.
If they sold it here, I'd totally go for the E63 AMG Estate.

Wait for the C63 coupe and get the best of both worlds.

The C63 with the P31 AMG development package is rumoured to have the full 500 hp that the 6.2L M156 gets in the other AMG 63 cars.

Merc is making a C coupe? When will that hit show rooms?

its about time Mercedes builds a C-class coupe worth buying....the W203 coupe was fucking repulsive, and this is coming from a guy that thinks Mercedes shit smells like roses hahahah

anyways i think the 2 cars are meant for a completely diff demographic, that being said, I'd prefer the C63....until AMG gets its hands on the E coupe

Kind of a tough call, you're comparing totally diff cars. What the price for both? Are they even close?

If the E was an AMG then it would be a no brainer for me, but it's not...
What is the price difference between the two vehicles? I sat in an E convertible at the car show and was blown away. I think I'd go with the E class still.

The C63's engine is pretty unreal though.

Their price diff isn't that much, probably within $10K, so when someone is looking to spend $70K on a C63, wouldn't mind to spend $80K on a E550 ..

Yeah E63 coupe would be nice, but we are talking $100K then ..

I have mix feeling on the E coupe, I think they are great looking, (that is why, they are everywhere now!) they look great from a distance, but not that great when look closer ... :dunno:

Ah so the price isn't that different. I know what you mean about the looks of the coupe. I think the problem is that the back end extends over the rear wheels too much, and is too high. I think a new set of wheels and some suspension modifications would make the car look 10x better.

Wheels are terrible on this car, but you get the point.

LOVE the look of the coupe and it's a slightly more current model, the W204 will be replaced before the C207 but it really depends if you want balls out power or a more refined (calm) coupe.
