Testing isn't exactly comparative either. You'd have to drop approximately another 20% off the 28.7 mpg to get the US equivalent.


What I find humorous about the C63 is that Mercedes "dropped" the BIG 6.2 liter V8 in favour of a smaller 4.0 liter TT V8.
BMW booted the 4.0 liter V8 to go to a smaller TT I6. We'll see what BMW comes out with in a manner of CSL or GT4 model. BMW still has a weight advantage for track use.
