It's an interesting thought, though.
hes right...i watched a special on Speed where they drove the piss out of a couple of C63's and thats exactly what the AMG rep said. They don't want the little car in their stable to be more powerful and therefor more attractive then their bigger cars. What disadvantage do you speak of? The M3 sedan is in good competition with the C63 and S4, just as the M5 is in good competition with the E63 and S8...
