    Well this new GT new comes std with 4Matic+
    Completely variable AWD system
    Just RWD most of the time
    But kicks FWD on when you need grip
    Can manually adjust torque distribution too
    Can send all power to JUST the back wheels for classic AMG antics
    Engine

    But here you have a good Ol 4.0TT AMG V8

    Bigger
    Wheelbase is 3in longer
    Overall length is over 6 in longer
    Almost 2 in wider
    Curb weight about 4300 lbs
    Practicality
    Not just more practical due to AWD
    But it’s more real 911 fighter
    2+2
    Trunk
    And it has a hatch-style trunk
    Kick gesture powered trunk
    11.3 cuft & 23.8 cuft
    Seats fold with the push of a button
    Like genuinely practical
    You’re not getting that in your 911
    Looks fantastic
    Very aggressive face
    Triple pod running lights
    Exaggerated grille bleeds into lower fascia
    Similar to BMW X5M
    Honestly reminds me of AMG GT3 IMSA car
    Active aero under front splitter
    Powerdome hood
    Affalterbach logo on front - love
    Front fender gill accent
    Wheels 20 in std 21 option
    Carbon ceramic option w/ gold brakes (6 piston)
    Front axle lift
    Manual or GPS
    Profile looks different from last gen
    Doors are the only exterior part shared with SL
    Suuupppeerrr flared hips
    Active rear spoiler OR aero package gets fixed wing
    5 positions on active wing
    Triple pod taillights match headlights
    Bar meeting across like in the GLC coupe
    Quad rhombus tips..classic AMG
    Sound EPIC
    Rear seats
    Not exactly super spacious
    But still added practicality
    Can actually do a rear seat delete
    Sunroof
    Manual shade….to save weight…lol
    Interior design
    Very SL
    Windshield is tapered at a more sloped angle tho
    Rich leathers

      It's not THAT bad. At least it is lower and angled.

    Yes, I know, everyone calls it a “gill”, however as a zoologist I have to inform you that the equivalent structure in a fish is called the operculum. It covers the fine gills which exchange oxygen from water.

    Even though I have no right (and money) to say anything about the car, I think it looks kind of fat, and it's not such as pleasing to the eye compared to a 2015 model (for example). It is still beautiful but not as beautiful as it used to be.

    • @danblaser
      @danblaser 3 місяці тому

      It doesn't just look fat, it is 300+kg fatter than the last car.

      M2 is a great car, but really not something you cross shop. I would be happy with either one, but I love the sound of the GT.
