Better sell the M3 and buy a dictionary.

Nope, not even close. If you want to drive something that rides harsh then go drive a 1984-85 Corvette with a Z51 suspension.
The new C6 Z06 isn't even close to harsh. My father who was 71 before he passes away didn't think it rode harsh.

Bottom line: These are two majorly different cars for the same money. The Z06 is a supercar and the C63 is a sports sedan.

I agree and disagree with this statement. I still stand by my words that it's on the harsh side for a DD. Some girl in my grade had a mom who drove one. I got a ride. I can't see myself owning one as a DD (ok, maybe...the performance is godlike).

This, though, I agree with: "The Z06 is a supercar and the C63 is a sports sedan."

Thank you for posting this.

I hate when people make assumptions about cars and then post their opinion on here without any real world experience.

Guys, I realize that those two cars are completely different, but that's why I asked for your opinions!

Also, as I was reading the post, some suggestions came up about the Cadillac CTS-V.
I think that car is astonishing, but I heard it is going to be (not sure it's on the market yet) more expensive than the C63.

Again, I know how fast it is, but in case of the C63, at least you're getting the MB badge and everything top quality (I hope so, at least).

BTW, thanks for all your comments, again, guys!

You should be able to get the price of the Caddie down with GM's extremely questionable future at hand. We stopped by the local Benz dealer and they're still holding strong with the pricing of the C63. Apparently it's still selling well (though supply has been reduced according to demand).

I still don't know if you'll prefer it to the Benz, but hey, you might like it more. You have to drive em and see.

M3 or Z06. Merc is a boat (real fast one at that but still..)

C63 or Z06? You have to admit that is a bizarre comparison.

Completely different. But if i were left to make the choice would take the c63 because from my experience the z06 isnt at all practical. It bottoms out at any kind of bump or curb and feels like you packed in a sardine can. The c63 wont handle like the z06, buts its way more comfortable, sounds better and has more creature comforts. That being said, i would enjoy driving the vette' more.

Z06

Wait - "some girl in your grade" - how old are you, 12? If you're talking about one from years ago then you can't really say how the new one drives.

We'll chaulk up the ride issue to a matter of opinion vs. opinion. I have no problem with that.
