i'd rather have a M3. I don't like the C's headlights, very nonmercedes. Can't resist a V8 screamer.

Lots of power, the new C63 will be quite a car (like the M3). Not too much a fan of the new Mercedes styling direction across their entire lineup. The old C, the old S, and the current E represent the pinnacle of Mercedes styling IMO. My family had an early 80s Mercedes, those were built like tanks and were functional and purposeful. MB is foregoing function more and more for form and styling. That's one of the reasons why I like the TSX so much - its interior is very functional and reminds me of those old Mercedes a lot, including the gated shifter.

yea, i myself am a huge bmw fan. been wanting a M3 since like 1995 when i was 12. im seriously considering the new V8 M3, probably drive the TSX for a while, and when the M3 is a year old, pick up a slightly used one. dont think i'll be afford the payment on a brand new one unfortunately, but i REALLY want one. i guess we'll see when the time comes around.
But if you're looking for V8's, can leave out the Lexus IS-F. It looks SEXY AS HELL and its super fast. i think Lexus is shooting to, and claiming to beat BMW.....but then again, who isnt?

I had a choice between a M3 and a C36.
I chose the C36 because the car is more luxurously refined then the M3. Another big reason was that everyone and thier grandoathers have an M3. If they didn't have an M3, they'd get a 318 and put M3 stickers all over it or make it look like an M3.
In TO and Vancouver, I bet M3's outnumber regular 3 series (i'm joking but it sure does feel like it though). There's a crap load and M3's are common like honda civics. :P
Not many people mod benzes, if they do, it's not usually the OEM look that I love.

I think it looks pretty nice, but I gotta agree with Zeeshan...IS-F. My gf just put down a deposit for one. Her IS350 now is a beast, so can't wait to drive the new IS-F. But with the c36, might just tell her to just eat up the deposit and look to get into that instead since she's a MB lover.
