As a Bmw fan and owner, I must say this Benz is absolutely one of, if not the best looking car in the world. Seriously.

I had an issue with the gearbox, electronic differential failure! I had a good warranty thankfully and Mercedes AMG Sheffield did a solid job on the repair. The car was 10 times better once that was fixed, a really solid motor. I had the GTS premium in white with black wheels, stunning!

I've been thinking of selling my GTR R35 (like yours) & buying an AMG GTS but i just can't decide. My mind changes almost daily. I love my GTR, l also love the sound & looks of the AMG GTS.
@ScottishCarClan2 жыл бұрын
This is a hard one… both great cars but quite different I felt too. The AMG GT is much more of a luxury cruiser. GTR more a dedicated driving car. Let us know what you choose to do! 😁

I just grabbed a GTS and I couldn't even compare the 2. Totally different animals. But IMO, the GTS is heads and shoulders above a GTR. The GTR just doesn't turn as many heads

Good video, bought one of these as my obtainable dream car after owning many AMGs old and new but have to say I just couldn’t gel with it. Felt way too artificial and not well calibrated for British roads, and little feeling through the steering making it hard to judge the limits on track. Incredibly quick and a simple map took power to around 620 HP. You did however miss that there were issues on some cars with the rear wing sticking and not fully retracting - have a Google, it did happen on mine and was a pricey main dealer fix!
@ScottishCarClan2 жыл бұрын
Thanks for commenting Roshan! Great to hear your thoughts. How did you find traction once mapped? Still manageable or a bit of a handful. Additionally, thanks for mentioning the wing! Often on our videos the comments are a hotbed of added tips and this is a perfect example.

@@ScottishCarClan you’ve probably found out for yourself now as only just saw the comment. Traction once moving was fine. AMG put a lot of effort into how these grip, so much so you can’t do burnouts like the C, E and CLS AMGs because of the diff and powertrain. But on a cold off camber b road expect to be embarrassed by something like an ST150 - these were engineered on perfectly smooth German and American roads!

Tossing up between a 2016 AMG GT/S or a 2013 Porsche 991.1 Carreras S. I am told the AMG is no good for long distance drives. Suspension way to unforgiving. I am likely to use the car for long drives. Any thoughts between the two with respect to comfort over long distances?

i recommend the AMGGTS i have exact same one. i test drove this and a 2015 targa . I took amg gts as its so rarely seen and is a mans car.,.Cockpit amazing . If you need a bit more practicality ( back seats, slimmer body etc) go with porsche. Once i heard the v8 twin turbo i only wanted the Merc. When you pull into a pub everybody notices , more gangster than flashy. Pepole are more complimentary than when i was in a porsche and let you out in traffic.it has massive presence .servicing cheaper and engine pretty bukket proof ( same in DB11)
