    Usually I'm quite picky about car design, but I actually don't mind the way this looks. Sure, its predecessor was a masterclass in aggressive elegance, which itself was a solid evolution of the excellent SLS AMG. But while this car probably isn't as nice as either of those, I've seen a lot worse when it comes to the replacement of certain cars in the last decade. Maybe it is a little too similar to the old car without really improving anything, but as a tamer and more relaxed take on the formula, it kind of works.

While it's a completely different format with completely different personalities, the general vibe of Throttle House sometimes make me think (a bit) of the Top Gear of old, though that is still in a league of its own.

    I LOVE the way it looks! I do think the infotainment screen should be better integrated into the dash design. Small issue I noticed when test driving an AMG GT 55 was the cup holders are too close together, two large drinks will not fit, an extra inch of space between the two cup holders would have been ideal. The large lift gate, rear storage area, and shelf behind the front seats makes the AMG GT 55 a car you can use every day! Easier to swallow the price is you get to enjoy it every day and it's not just a weekend toy.

    I got my dream car in late ‘02, an ‘03 S55 AMG Mercedes. It’s a 4800# 4dr luxury sedan, SUPERcharged V8. When I purchased it, it would run out against the governor at 178mph, and when it hit that top speed, the nose would drop! At first service the dealer turned the governor back to 156mph. There’s no doubt in my mind the car would run what is on the speedometer, 200mph, and it would, I governed, do it today. Today, only 140k miles and never a wrench on it except for service and battery replacement. I love it and would never sell it because you can’t buy anything close to it. BTW, on a trip on the freeway, driving ‘sanely’, it will give you 23-24mpg.

With that gone, I don't think we can say there's a true driver's car AMG left in the lineup. Looking forward to driving this one myself, though.

      This is a new car so there isn’t any data on that subject. The prior generation will likely hold its value much better than this; it’s just a dressed up SL. The last and only real AMG GT was an engineering masterpiece with a better weight distribution than a Caymen, excellent dual clutch, and FR mid engine layout with transaxle configuration. That’s the AMG GTR then Black Series versions held lap records for FR cars all around the world, including the ring. This is an SL with fancy stuff glued to it. I like the car by the way, it just isn’t built in the vision of the old one.

There will also be a huge difference for the environment of ocationally turning it on to have fun in the corners.

    I could be among numerous people in the world wondering why MB did not use this engine in the W206 C63, instead of the 2l Hybrid 4-cylinder. But the world may be wrong or right with the direction MB took with the W206 C63. Time will definitely tell. Oh, about the video - I love the content.

    So at 2 tonnes this isn’t a sports car but a Continental GT/Aston DB12 rival. But for almost £200k would you like a Bentley or an Aston Martin…..or a Mercedes? Exactly. That’s where it falls down. I do like the package though.

    Idk if you've heard but thanks to the low sales of the C63 since they decreased the cylinders. The CLE will be a V8. I think the necessity of AMG from a mechanical perspective is going to be around a lot longer. Yes this is a good thing.

      They should have released a GT55 in the UK with RWD only for less weight and V8 for 145, 20K off the Vantage for not much less performance. This car right now is less fun, less exciting and less exotic than a Vantage for a similar price. Insanity. The 2nd hand rates will be absolute freelo though, so it's not all for loss.

    I've sat in one of those. Interior is great apart from a couple details. Boot is massive, especially with rear seats folded, which is no loss at all. Trying to sit behind a driver seat set up for myself (182cm, ~6ft) didn't work - the seat couldn't go all the way back blocking on my legs no matter how hard I tried. The looks? I quite like it to be fair, wouldn't agree it looks like a blobfish... I prefer the old one though.

    @RoryReid, I don't know where you guys get your background soundtracks from (cue head-bopping neck muscle activity), but this one was banging, just like that awesome music emanating from the AMG GT Coupe's double-barrelled shotguns at the voluptuous derriere. I agree with your assessment re the pricetag and the Aston Martin Vanquish comparison was spot-on, simply because the interior in the Brit is more special, and therefore, warrants the higher OTR, given the same power plant. However, this delayed gratification exercise from AMG gives the Petrolhead Diehards like us, some hope, at least from soul-destroying electrification. "Right Jurgen, let's burn some rubber!"
