    Happy Pre-Turkey Day everyone! We've been so busy traveling that we are finally getting a chance to catching up on videos that we filmed locally. Sadly, with the new restrictions in place across the US, all our travel has stopped for the remainder of the year. Hope everyone has a wonderful and safe holiday! We have one more fun droptop to post next week ;)

      Were you using a different camera for the interior review? Seemed a little extra shaky like it was missing stabilization.

    By far the killer app on the AMG-GTR Roadster is the handling. One of only 2 convertibles crafted with rear wheel steering [the other being the 911 Turbo], it's perfect weight distribution and virtuoso steering elevate this road weaponry into the super car stratosphere.

    Test drove a new 2020 911 4S, got back into my 2018 SL63 and drove away.. I felt the 911 was more sporty in corners, but there is nothing like the torque and feel of my SL.. It felt like more car... probably because it weighs a lot more, but the V8 and power didnt leave me wanting the 911....... This GTR is lighter and more sporty than my SL.. But im just too big of a guy to fit in one.

    Magno paint loves non touch carwashes. I put my E 43 through the carwash all the time. The paint is virtually indestructible. What you must never do is wax it with normal wax, any abrasive wax product will damage the the matte appearence. Taking care of it is a snap. Put it through the car wash, (touchless or non brush) and then spray on a decent spray and wipe ceramic finish like meguiars ultimate fast finish. Total time 15 min tops. Magna paint is extraordinarily tough. After 3 winters the only paint chips I have were from actual rock hits. Its the only cars that I have had that has not suffered from road rash in the fist year of driving on Wisconsin roads all year.

    I think AMG GTR broke the sport auto supertest record (not manufacture ones) back in 2017(7:10). The 918 time was faster but maybe they didn't count it because the OEM team also took part in that test. Now AMG GT Black series has broken the record again on wet track which is mind blowing.

    Why anyone would chose the AMG GTR or GTC over a C8 HTC totally baffles me especially at a $120k premium. I had a 2016 GTS and system faulted after 3 days, leather driver seat was separating at 3 weeks when I sold it and went back to my C7. Ergonomics are terrible in comparison to C8 which is nicer inside, better riding, much better visuals, and a retracting hardtop that asks for no compromises compared with the coup. It is faster to 60, tied at qtr mile, and same top speed (base C8) with much more curb appeal. If you want a supercar to enjoy everyday buy a C8. Even a C7 is a better choice.
