C63S or F80 M3 or...?

I bought a W205 (S205 to be precise, not a fan of the saloon) over an F80 M3 but I am still tempted by an F82...however the noise in the C63 is something else. Sport+ with all the exhaust valves open, and you can hear the turbos spool up too.
 
Certainly not MB's finest era. But the F80 is hardly the pinnacle of BMW interiors :p
It's funny that performance car discussions on here inevitably segway onto interiors :D I didn't think the F80s interior was all that great. I mean it was ok, but I felt the interior in my 2011 S5 was nicer. My C63s (C205) was just ok too; it didn't rattle, the performance seats were nice but again it didn't feel like a £70k+ car. I had to go to a C7 RS6 and F90 M5 before I felt the interior quality was at a level I was happy with, but thats a whole car segment above.

If interior quality is important, how about a late B8 RS5 n.a V8? Looks good, goes well, good interior and great sports seats. Only has 2 doors though. If you need more practicality - B8 RS4 :cool:

Wait until you see some of the ****-poor quality plastics on the new G90 M5 :eek:

I have issues with the size and how it looks anyway, I don't see myself ever owning one. Nor the current M3/4 with those nostrils, I just can't see past it. To me this is worse than when the Bangle era cars first dropped, I actually didn't mind them - heck some of those designs look super appealling now, especially compared to the current ranges. C'mon BMW, sort it out :(

Nostrils are being stretched sideways by the look of it :p
