Pros

Lots of power in the C63 AMG models
Great double-wishbone + multi-link suspension setup
Good 0.27 drag coefficient

Torquey yet robust M157 in the E63 AMG
Arguably improved build quality
Better exterior styling than the pre-facelift

Rather good looking
Good safety ratings

Cons

Addicted to 4MATIC
Somewhat generic styling

AMG went 4MATIC
MacPherson front suspension

Basic suspension setup
Not the best build quality
The wagon version looked better
