Time for a new car soon, do you think I should go for the BMW M3 or the Mercedes C63 AMG. The BMW is cheaper and both have similar performance so it's a tough choice, any help  |

Do you get Lewis's autograph with the Merc? Could be a clincher. |

It'd be the M3 for me, I assume you mean the E46 shape?
Whilst these cars have become more affordable to buy they are still not cheap to run  If that isn't an issue though go for it, only you can decide ultimately and you'd need to test drive both to see which suits how you like to drive best  |

"Go for the merc, bimmers are clit cars now "
You wouldn't buy a car just because it is popular?
I would go for the M3. Simple choice until Mercedes get their build quality sorted!! As for an old mans car? Just like Volvo, I'm afraid..
Never had any problems with my BM's! (But I may just be lucky in that I have them "looked after"!) lol |

The merc is a car for my dad but if that's the way you want to go. The M3 is glorious responsive and bliss to drive for the last 50k but I wouldn't spend my money on it but am pleased the big boss got me one so if you have a choice you will be smiling all year with an M3. |

"How and why is a merc a old mans car? Don't you just buy/drive the car you like and can afford? "
Some cars are Rovers were referred to as old guys cars and Honda had that image for a long time you get MX5's referred to as hairdressers cars along with Audi TTs and the old Porsche 924s its the image they portray and who buys them. Go to a golf club see the Mercs lined up and check out the silver hair chaps in the bar or on the greens. |

Go drive them both..as I find different cars suit different people. Personally I prefer the m3, however I would not buy either and would either have an m5 or maybe a jag.
I know lots of people that have had problems with the amg though. So my vote would be the bmw.
But then again.. I own a old Alfa.. so some may think my car choices are a bit mental. Lol |

Nowt wrong with your Alfa, just wants. Little TLC. X
So, OP, Merc or BM?
The Merc is a great car with a great engine, but, there's a good reason the M3 is still around and still popular....It's the best car of its type and has been for a couple of decades.
Personally, like some of the others, I'd go for a Jag XKR or wait for the Alfa Romeo 4C... |

I'm favouring the M3 to be honest, although the Alfa 4C suddenly sounds tempting as well, looks a very nice car. Only downside it's a 2 seater I think. |

Yeah, its a two seater. I got to look at the pre-production model at Goodwood and it looks better in the flesh than in the pictures. I'm looking forward to driving one next year when they go on sale...
I'm with you on the M3, it is the better car, slightly cheaper to run too. |

"Caution with the Merc - My 350SLK's reliability made my 5 year old Alfa Romeo look great. 
Dunno about the BMW. "
Don't start knocking Alfa's, mines been pretty much faultless...they just need love. |

"would say AMG Merc but getting parts is a right pita,
forget about the bmw
Audi rs6
or outside the box option
maserati quattroporte "
That's actually a good suggestion.
The Quattroporte or the 3200GT are great cars and can be had for peanuts, plus, they're a bit more exclusive than the BM or Merc.
I'd avoid the Audi at all costs unless you actually enjoy understeer... |

C63
M3 is better around a track but you don't live on a track 
Plus the m3 is a clitoris car ..... Every c**ts got one!! I'd go Audi but hey that's me! |

I got a fiat coupe turbo modded. Looks like a little Ferrari and almost goes like one too. Cheap on insurance as its not seen as a sports car lol suckers! So much fun for so little cost. Fuel is a bit crazy though only getting about 15 mpg as its modded but well worth it |
