- Building a properly hardcore convertible from a conventional front-engined coupe ought to be impossible. But AMG knows a thing or two about impossible. Dan Prosser considers the result.

One of the most beautiful cars in the world
That color combination is the most spectacular ive ever seen on a MB
Jamie Potter yes it beautiful
What is the name is the color
As soon as I heard the voiceover, I felt really glad that Dan Prosser isn't only doing CarGurus videos.
Hearing the rumbly growling V8 with the roof down must be epic 🔥
Jbt ti si svugde
I usually only read comments and I always seem to find you in a comment section under an AMG video! Mainly remove before race.
Great video guys! Looking forward to PPFing one!
Nice review. I disagree about the feeling of comfort - I get used to it right away. It’s one of those cars that makes you feel confident and at one with the car from the first minute.
You are so right..The SLS is probably the most pleasant usable sports engine of all time...Not the most powerful...but the most responsive anywhere...
That`s a nice weekend car. Not too extreme, fun orientated and still capable if needed. - Nice Video!
Marc Nobel ....as a weekend toy to compromised for me already. Too much daily - flavour in it already.
It looks so good on the road, so wide and low, lovely proportions 😍
Can you still adjust the traction control endlessly like the normal GT-R? It had the big yellow knob to adjust it.
Nice video. Thank you to share this test and your feedbacks.
The car is amazing … could-you, please, tell us what is the color name on this configuration?
Thank you in advance for your answer.
Looks spectacular!
All sport cars companies like to market their cars are based on their F1 racing tech. Have you ever seen an F1 car with a roof? That's the question I always answer with when I'm asked why I love roofless cars so much. If you have ever owned a convertible, I have an SL55 AMG Renntech. I don't care about track times and how much faster my buddy went around the track because he has a roof. It's a moot point. Ferrari chops the tops of most of their road cars because people like myself love and buy them. You hear that glorious music of the engine more. You smell the exhaust and nature around. The driving experience simply can't be duplicated. It's also safer than cruising around on my Ducati. So tired of the no roof argument on super cars. Can it just go away like skinny jeans on men please?
@Enjoy The Vroom "like skinny jeans on men" 😂👌🏾
Amazing video. Looks like the editor found a new feature in his editing software. Please don't 😫
What this color???
Digital buttons like those are pretty cool. More of that and less air con screens or tesla model 3 screens!
This color 😍

I have driven this car it definitely has turbo lag but it's fun!
If you thought this had Turbo lag.. allow me to say you know nothing a out real Turbo lags 😂
All we need to hear are the engine sounds & any useful information you have to offer. Not disracting music
Which would you prefer as an everyday supercar this or a r8 performance spyder? Thank you!!
I understand what you mean about contradictions but here is my take. I own very powerful convertibles and get shit from my friends because they are supposed to be horrid cars because they have no roof. So here’s my thing, what do all these powerful sports cars try to emulate? They get their technology and of course emulate F1 race cars, considered as pure race track tools and when was the last time you’ve seen an F1 car with a roof on it? Convertibles give you the thrill of speed, the sound of speed along with the wind in your hair and the sun in your face. So to me the AMG GTR convertible is of the closest cars you can drive to an F1 race car. Ferrari and Lamborghini spiders too for that matter.
Ideal for UK cart roads...
very nice
What's the color
You need a closer mic when in the car. Difficult to hear what your saying
Amazing car, but I still don’t understand the market for it? If you’re buying an AMG GTR, that is a track focused performance car, and then to make a roadster edition that’s heavier and less rigid? Just odd in my opinion.
The S63 uses the 5.5 ltr, doesn't it? Cheers's from East-Van B.C., Canada.
The S63 switched from the 5.5L to the 4.0L after the 2017 facelift.
Previous generation went from 6.2 V8 to 5.5 V8 Biturbo with it's facelift... The current generation has always been 4.0 Biturbo V8
did they get rid of the multi-stage TCS Knob?
It’s not a dry road if ur window wipers come on when it sprinkles !! British weather hard telling 😆
Dont understand why a gtc doesn't do the same thing?
Nothing excites more than a naturally aspirated engine when it comes to characteristics and driving purity, I'd buy the old AMG GTR for the NA engine, Old is better in the car world. Epic content.
Are you taking about the SLS? The AMG couple has always been blown..the GT3 cars ran the the n/a 6.2 litre v8 but this was a race car
Old is better indeed
There just doesn't seem to be any soul in the new German cars. They drive well and look good but just don't stir your emotions like cars of 2-3 years ago.
@@ReadMyComments this is an improvement of the same model that was available 2-3 years ago?
@@dagnut Are you making a statement or posing a question?
I'll stick to the GT-C if I wanted a convertible. That wing looks ridiculous on an open-top car
Reports of Uber drivers continuing to work despite being diagnosed with Coronavirus
Why do you think that sophistication is a contradiction to this car?
sls looks so much better
I love the looks apart from the silly wing
The GTC should be the only variant with a soft top. The big wing on the GTR coupe looks good and is functional, but for the GTR Roadster, it looks boyish and out of place
"Contradictions"?? Are you using the correct word ??
Does Porsche lop the roof off of a GT3RS?

You're just supposed to blast up and down the Autobahn. Pah to little roads, get them out of my way.
That is the last thing it is meant for. It's the Beast of the Green Hell for a reason... You want autobahn, you buy S Klasse.
Agree. Great for a fast straight line cruise.
@@ReadMyComments Why don't you go and look up its Nurburgring time. Then compare it to the time of the S63. QED
@@waverleyjournalise5757 We are talking real world driving. Not race track
@@ReadMyComments Funny that the Nurburgring is also a toll road you can drive on like an ordinary person. Doing some research would have been useful there
No one mention the SLK 👀
"Contradictions." What don't you get about luxury performance?
That aside, great review actually. But don't disrespect the sound, that's all muffling and sound restrictions. If AMG let that thing sound how they wanted, you wouldn't have any eardrums left
Will Jolliff Because the GT-R was meant to be a track car. Making it a roadster, adding weight, adding more weight with body bracing, more leather etc is just pointless. You should just save your money and buy the GTC if you want a convertible.
@@jryalls If anyone can do that properly, it's AMG. Besides, they only made 750 for that exact reason
The front end of the car is too long...
Should be AWD also
Most boring review in recent memory.
Because the car is just so soul destroyingly lacking in excitement.
