    Should I buy one?

    Mercedes will launch the C 63 S towards the end of the year at an expected price of Rs 1.25 crore. For that money, you get a four-door sportscar you can use every day. There’s little contradiction here; owners can either sit in the back and enjoy the comfort of being driven around, or take the wheel and enjoy serious performance any time they wish. Yes, this car needs to run on smaller wheels for India, it could have steered with a bit more precision, and the gearbox could have been more intuitive and quicker, but as things stand, the C 63 S is one of the best cars in its class. Question is, is it better than its other legendary rival the BMW M3? Unfortunately that’s only something we’ll be able to answer when we drive these two cars back to back.
