Mercedes' New M3 Killer ?
I'd love this car in a 6 speed with long tube headers and a throaty exhaust. Cruising with no B pillar with the windows down on a 77 degree warm summer night. Preferably with Emmanuelle Chriqui chilling next to me.

IDK if I would call this an m3 killer when a new m3 should be on its way very soon. Even though these cars cater to the same market the only thing similar is that they have 4 wheels and 4 seats. The approach to everything is vastly different. Would be akin to comparing the s2000(if it were a coupe) to the 350z.
Love the interior but feel the exterior is well behind the M3, at least in pictures. Those seats look amazing, though! Also, no standard LSD in a car this powerful? That's ridiculous! I'd expect this to cost more than an M3 as well. I don't mind the transmission at all - it's supposed to be great - but that heavy roof as standard is a pain in the neck for a car that should be lighter and more nimble than a standard C-Class.
