[@HarryVerolme]

Am I missing something? I have never thought Mercedes cars were boring. Is that an American thing?

[@MBisFrenchy]

Yes in America it is positioned as more a slower as it quiet and isolated older persons car.

[@skagerstrom]

Here in Sweden they are sort of old-man cars as well. I think it's mostly by habit though. 20 years ago that was a fact. And you see traces of it today - the A class is a quite desperate attempt from Mercedes' side to leave that image behind. But it's still driven by little old ladys. :D

[@MH5tube]

In the US, they're typically seen as boring (but luxurious) commuter cars. The S Class and E Class are pretty well respected in that sense, and the C Class is just a "baby Merc" for those who can't afford the more expensive ones. Car fans know about AMG, but to most people, they simply aren't different enough in their styling from their sister cars to stand out. Ergo, Mercedes is boring.

[@Mallpaperplane]

guess they don't have amg there then..

[@gadgetguy99]

Most people that see a mercedes as boring own a 4 door diesel from the 70s, I owned a 240d for a while and it was just a big boring luxury sedan.

The specialized media knows how capable the AMG GT is, but it isn't disseminated as 911's performance for exemple. If you ask a kid/teenager that like cars if a 911 is a good sportscar they'll answer yes right away, the same won't happen with the Merc tho... I think that was his point.

[@Darion350]

Mercedes had Porsche design the rear end, which I believe is supposed to be a nod to the old 928

[@GeeeEm61]

Glad you said that. I saw an AMG GTR on the road last week travelling in the same direction as me. We passed each other (slowly) a couple of times so I got a great look at it. Awesome! I thought it was reminiscent of the 928. So much so I looked up Doug D & 928 right before searching for this vid. Then I switched between still side shots of each, back and forth, back and forth, but they really do not look alike. But there is definitely something "brother from another mother" about them!

[@WarriorsPhoto]

Doug, I am completely shocked by your presentation on this video. I am so used to your modern vehicles where you are smooth, quirky, and highly entertaining. You were all those as well, and you're more of those on your newer videos. Keep growing sir and see you in San Diego.

[@nitro5119]

Just took a GTS for a 30 minute ride, and you're right. Extremely underrated. Seriously refined piece of machinery.

That's an insult to the German nation, viper my ass.

***** Clearly you are speaking from ignorance because the new ACR is a track monster, especially for the price. Nothing like the 90s car aside from the big v10.

[@tuddor69]

hampstershat123 not quite, i know the acr set 13 new lap records on 13 tracks of which only laguna seca seems more important (to me at least) and it beat the record hold by the porsche 918 spyder. but it's still a viper...

[@Ryukachoo]

this will end up like the R8, respected but not valued well, in spite of it having incredible performance it just doesn't have the badge to carry prestige, a real shame

[@jesperpsv98]

This means that it will be cheaper then, say, a ferrari 458 in a few years. Meaning its a bit more accesible for the average joe. It will hopefully be like the 911 996, with prices starting at around 10000 or so

[@Kaisuke971]

Well the R8 suffers from being the Huracan's baby sister (Gallardo at the time), and this suffers from: 1- Not having Gullwing doors, 2- Having the C63's turbo 4.0l engine. If they were 100% analog it'd work, look at the SLS.

[@jordanbell9318]

That could be solved if Mercedes simply added gullwing doors

[@DuhQuantum]

It is already half the price of a used 458. And this thing will never be 10 grand

the amg gt looks like a mix between dodge viper and porsche 911

[@ashkonrahrooh534]

Alex G he just says it looks like a viper, why do you get offended so fast?

[@cameronbitz9124]

Alex G yeah it does long hood with sloped back, i can see it

[@Synthwave89]

It does actually, and that's not a bad thing. The Viper is a sexy damn car but the AMG GT is just sex on four wheels.

[@zarifayman]

The viper is what a true sports car should be. Great on both the road, track and in a straight line. It is severely underrated cause people think its some big engined tin box with plastic trim and broken switches from America.

[@ssneakaround]

Bro, have you ever heard of mercedes sls? Look it up...that's where the design comes from.

[@chrisgugleta]

Nice exhaust. Doesn't awake the neighbors when you start it at 4:30 am but still sounds awesome.

[@gnat2003]

Hi Doug! Like your vlogs - always interesting to watch! Have you tried Nissan GT-R (R35)? Wondering what's your opinion on it.

[@Viktor-tz8qc]

When i think abut expensive cars i think about his one. Totaly a dream car right there

[@NoToBigBro]

Every reviewer is raving about this car and you say it's underrated

[@MeowkolaTesla]

reviewer does not equal consumer.

[@MiketheNerdRanger]

Reviewers drove the car, regular consumers look at it and assume.

[@michaelsmith9308]

Doug, your facial expressions ALONE made want to go and buy/order this car ASAP:)

[@Tommiworks]

Had the chance to review one of these too, what an experience. Such a superb car.

[@damonstr]

Sounds like the ultimate muscle car... and it's not even American. LOL.

[@Pifferfish]

The Beast of Turin pioneered muscle.

[@carsonking5549]

Turin is in Italy, £5 your a yank?

[@Pifferfish]

nope. sod off. he said that it wasn't even American muscle, my point was to show that Americans didn't pioneer the muscle car. I'll take that 5 quid though.

[@carsonking5549]

Oh right, you're a woman, sorry, I didn't realise, facts are not your friend, you have to divert. Tch

[@Pifferfish]

I stated an opinion, and you've done nothing to refute that or address it. Then you resorted to personal attacks both times. Haven't "diverted" anything. And I'm male, thanks. Keep bringing the hate, it sustains me.

[@jetliigor]

This car doesn't start at $130,000, it starts at $111,000. People who are buying cars in this price range aren't looking at a Ferrari or Lamborghini but they are looking at a Jaguar, Porsche and Maserati. The Porsche 911's are such beasts that it's hard to get this car instead of a Porsche 911 but for those who want to stand out go for the Mercedes AMG GT instead.

[@kastroverde95]

The 911 range that starts competing with this car´s engine (v8 4000cc) is the 911 turbo, starting at €200k. Seems like a substantial difference to me. And please, don´t mix German cars with Indian-owned brands. Jaguar´s time was about 20 years ago, look up their mkt share.

[@fssofdeath]

Man, old school Doug speaks FAAAAAASSSSTTTT. I love how far this channel has come.

[@simba00784]

I have one of these but the newer model facelift. It’s excellent car. I have an m6 too and the gt is more fun than that. Tho I will say the m6 is more in its element on the highway. Gt sounds AMAZING too - get the performance exhaust

[@Willppyro]

U lucky If I had one I’d drive it every day it would have 40k miles in a year lol

[@0nkelD0kt0r]

Yes it drives well and sounds amazing and is also good at cruising but way more importantly - it is not only the most beautiful Mercedes in decades, it may very well be one of the best looking cars on sale today. I know looks are a matter of taste but you can't really say it doesn't look good, especially at the rear end.

[@chieftp]

underrated? what exactly is the rating and who rated it?

[@fdu6]

He means it's not as commonly glorified as other cars that are perhaps more popular, like a Porsche or a Ferrari.

[@evandrivescars]

The person who rated it isn't in the right mind The rating was 9.9.

[@kaustuvbiswal3124]

This person is underrsted

[@BenjaminMutuku]

I’m driving the 2016 AMG GTS with a massive 700+ HP (ECU upgrade etc) this Saturday and I can’t wait. Full review coming to my KZbin channel.

[@anthonynicodemo6388]

Love the colour combination. Awesome sound

[@TomesEsq]

There's just no reason to get this car over a comparable 911. The 911 offers all-wheel-drive, a manual transmission, and rear seats (small, but usable in an emergency and great for extra luggage/crap).

[@TheCJSChannel]

Rear wheel drive, sounds better, looks better, practically as fast around a track, and it's just different from the 911 which has been so good for so long that some people just get kind of bored with it. Some of these things are subjective but car buying is made off of subjective observations anyways.

[@TomesEsq]

TheCJSChannel You can get the 911 in rear-drive. Looks and sounds are subjective, so that's immaterial. Being practically as fast still makes it slower. 911's are respected for a reason: they are NOT boring. I've driven the new GT-S, and it has NO soul.

[@TheStallion234]

You literally just said that looks and sound are subjective and then went on to talk to us about the car not having soul

[@TomesEsq]

TheStallion234 I wasn't saying that was better or worse as a fact, per say. I was giving my personal opinion based on my personal driving experience. My other points were objective.

[@TheCJSChannel]

You can only get rear drive in the lower models. The most comparable 911 to the gt-s is the turbo and that is only all wheel drive. It is a little slower but not by much, and most people will never notice the difference. I also acknowledged that some of that stuff is subjective but you said it has no soul, which is in the same category. I'm not saying it's for you, but it has its place because of those subjective qualities. People have different tastes and goals in a car.

[@AutobahnSean]

HEY DOUG! I was wondering if you wanted to drive and review my "1999 TOYOTA SIENNA XLE" with {189,000 miles} on it. Please let me know ASAP. With regards, Sean.

[@LA-vd3ls]

sean spillane when can i come pick it up

[@chrisswhites757]

Sienna resale value will jump after Dough review!

[@dubhoven1]

With all due respect, he doesn't. And the community would have very little to gain from it, sir. Look through the type of vehicles he compares, and then feel silly for asking. Lol Cheers!

Doug earned a thumbs up when he said, "Yes sir. Yes I do!" 😆👏

[@tzovlask]

One of my fav Mercs ever!! Pure awesomeness!!!

[@phantomwhite7972]

Is it underrated? Because I thought it was absolutely raved about by critics. Or is it even better than that still?!

[@meteoricthrone]

Yeah, every publication I've seen has loved this thing. Motortrend commented that it was one the best launching front-engined RWD cars they'd tested

[@phantomwhite7972]

meteoricthrone I've honestly not seen a bad word written about any aspect of this car. It would seem that the only people who underrate it are those who pre-judge the Mercedes brand and haven't actually driven it.

[@meteoricthrone]

Phantomwhite The only bad thing I've seen is that there are some that wish the styling were more outrageous, but I like the subdued design. Less attention when you're driving around

[@phantomwhite7972]

meteoricthrone It's a Mercedes, of course it's going to be subdued. If you want outrageous styling, get a Lamborghini! I find it hilarious how some reviewers do that, they use a point that is either blindingly obvious or totally inappropriate in order to criticise a car. Case in point - I read a review on the MX-5 that had "no back seats" as a negative, I shit you not.

[@meteoricthrone]

Phantomwhite But... that's the whole point of an MX-5. Same with Corvettes, the F-Type, etc

[@Terryrouge427]

Small correction, has a biturboed engine. Its a little different because the two turbos are completely independent from each other. One turbo for each side of the engine instead of a smaller one and bigger one for different rev ranges.

[@mabakejunior7605]

Doug you are the best KZbin car reviewer in my opinion. Thanks Chief

[@lionardo]

will drive it tomorrow. Really looking forward to it.

[@edventures9884]

When i saw the amg gts I automatically thought of Paul Wallace from SOL, LOL!

[@TheFunkhouser]

If you like this wait to you see the AMG GT-R Thats a total beast. Its like this one on steroids.

[@moimoi4725]

Very nice but starts at 157k

[@johnferenz747]

Exactly... The GTR for me is close to a perfect vehicle

[@borkwoof696]

But it’s uglier

[@ConstantineJoseph]

I've driven the 4.0l biturbo. It pulls extremely well and the revving is just supremely good

[@svenvucak9264]

Now there is the amazing AMG GT Black Series with 730 horse power

[@jkokich]

I really like the way you do your videos! Awesome!

You said, "I'm out here in West Chester Pennsylvania somewhere . . ." I used to live in West Chester Pa. as a kid. I absolutely love the look of this car and It is a very worthy successor to the SLS AMG. The top of the line version of this car was available in a very bright green. Thanks.
