It does not seem like the price difference is too significant. A similarly equipped GLC63 is about $82,000, about $5k more than the X3M and virtually same as the X3MC. The GLC63S Coupe is right at $90k, but that's with a few more bells and whistles than the X4MC.

Before I settled on a used X5M, I was considering the same options and put a deposit down on the SVR. I wanted to like the GLC the best due to perceived highest quality interior (excluding seat comfort as I have not ridden in them). For me it came down to appearance and the GLC just doesn’t do it for me. If I didn’t get the X5 I would be driving an SVR now or soon.
MRichmond - are you going to do a special SVO paint? I see all of the SVO paints have a satin option which is intriguing, albeit pricey. |

And, like you, I was set on the GLC for quite a while and reached the same conclusion about its appearance. I then gravitated to the GLC63 Coupe before considering the X3M/X4M, but then settled on the Jag. |

Ok I might need to reconfigure the GLC63 then, I made it similar to the X3MC as much as possible and got it around $87k |

My biggest issue with the Glc 63 suv is the cargo space is much smaller than the X3M. If you have to put dog crates in the back it's damn near impossible.

if you plan to lease the GLC, get ready to bend over. Mercedes has terrible lease deals compare to BMW.

I have a GLC63. I love it... V8 roars and it is just brutal. Mercedes doesn't want you to lease these vehicles they want you to purchase. I've had my ass handed to me too many times on all the M cars. I hardly ever see AMG cars on the road which makes them hold their value far beyond any BMW M's. Don't get me wrong the lease deals on BMW are unbeatable which is why that is all I would do with them. I'd never actually purchase one.
My main concern will be once they have a huge influx of the X3M, just like the F80 these things will come crashing down. Especially with the economy on its way virtually no car is safe. Not even my 488 Pista which is up for sale as we speak. Anyway.. I drove the X3MC. It was zippy, harsh suspension, handling was heavy. Just can't get into the 6 cylinder, it just doesn't make me smile as much as the AMG. Interior tech is better than the GLC but the quality of materials lacks in the M. As far as looks my AMG gets tons of compliments... Most people don't even know what it is. I feel the BMW M are run in the mill as I see maybe 10-15 everyday here in San Diego. All types M3, M4, M5, M6 etc daily and even more when I'm in LA. Most people can walk into BMW and they will give them the car whereas MB will turn you down or make you pay for it. Oh only reason I'm on here is because I bought my wife a X3m40i lol. Just my opinion on the cars. She loves her car but when she gets in the GLC she whines why she didn't get this model. |

Can’t wait until they do head to head tests between the Glc 63 and the X3M, should be interesting.

We get the glc63s in a traditional suv body here in Canada, the motor on the S is crazy and the handling is good. The Merc infotainment is old, refresh for the MY2020 is landing in Q4 of this year with a few other cosmetic changes outside and inside.
The merc also allows you to order a factory tow hitch which bmw does not offer. The merc also comes in more expensive, about 7 to 10k more here. Tough decision... |

On a couple waiting lists for 2020 GLC63 allocations. The increased level of standard equipment (MBUX and performance exhaust mainly) sealed the deal for me. My spec for the non-S SUV comes out to about $82k, comparable to a similarly equipped X3MC.
I've owned solely BMWs for the past 14 years. It's time for a change. F15 X5 will stick around for my wife.

The new GLC 63 does look amazing, watched a review by Shmee 150 on the S model and it sounded amazing...and the tech is a slight step above the XMCs...albeit mostly expensive options. But here in the UK it's likely to be rrp price at launch whereas I managed £10k discount on an X3MC
Next time I'll be searching for the V8!! |
