'13 Audi S4 vs '12 BMW 335i Sedan vs '10 C63 AMG Sedan

What do you fellas think?

I know the AMG will put quite a financial burden on me (gas, tires, maintenance) but it's a sick sounding and fast car. It's not really comparable to the others I've listed in the subject line but just shootin out to get some opinions here.

These cars will all be fully loaded whilst the AMG has everything but the AMG Developmental Package with low miles (8-10K)

Anyone have any experience with the 335 or Audi in terms of reliability?

Given only those 3 choices, I'd take the C63 without question IMO.

Idk, I kinda like the s4. Then again, I've always been pretty conservative when it comes to cars.

I'd go with the C63.

I personally prefer to stay away from BMW, S4 is nice car but not compared to C63.

If I had that kind of $$ for the C63 AMG, I would be looking at a GTR. But just me. I have no need for the 4 doors. Wifey has the Sedan.

There's an enormous difference in cost between those two.

Or sorry man was not talking about a "NEW" GTR. You can get them for 65k or so and doesnt the C63AMG start at 60k?

He's looking at a 10-11 C63. Around $50ish, maybe better.

I just picked up my wife's G sedan from a guy getting rid of it to get a 2011 Interlagos Blue M3 sedan for that very reason.

C63, not biased in the slightest.

honestly if i was looking for a sedan, ill do the same. my local dealer still has a brand new 2011 blue m3 sedan, fully loaded, sitting on the lot. but its an automatic... theyre trying to get rid of it, so if your seller wants brand new you should tell him to give southbay bmw a call, i think theyre selling it for pretty cheap too!

No, he wanted the V8 M3 sedan so badly that already got it before getting rid of his G. Hence his reason to be so motivated to get rid of the G quickly for a great bargain. G37 + M3 = win for me.
