@@adambenk0 I drove the AMG and love it. Also looks better imo than the new refreshed R8. Fake vents up front and the rear looks so blocky. I would AMG.
Have a gtr and it’s such a monster, amazing chassis, heavy and precise steering at times almost feels old school unassisted, it’s just a MONSTER!!!! Have had mclaren Ferrari have lambo and Porsche and I still prefer gtr overall to anything Surprised to hear about steering, I think it’s twice as much feedback as a 991.1rs and equal to any of the best feedback steering cars out there
@@CP-vg4vy Just watched btw the gtr vs ford gt vs gt2rs vs lotus video with Steve Sutcliffe, he said GTR steering felt spot on like a competition car aka race car So not sure what was up with this gtr they drove
I drive over them roads practically every week they are a five minute drive from where I live... Those roads always give me a good laugh when I drive over them towards Langsett so much fun in any car. You always get a good mix of compressions corners and little lumps in the road where you nearly take off. They'll highlight any deficiencies in any car provided you don't get stuck behind some Sunday driver doing 5mph although, I usually get past them with a bit of clear road you have to be careful though some of the roads around there are bloody narrow.
Nice review Matt. The AMG GT R is excellent value at £95000. It has a great engine that doesn't even sound like it's turbo-charged! It has great build quality, it looks fantastic in green or black (and especially sunbeam yellow), but that long long bonnet just doesn't do it for me. You also touched on the steering which is also a weak point. I think this car comes into its own in Florida or California where they have bigger, wider roads. For the UK I would rather have a 991 GT3 for the same money.
Weak point?!? Coming from a gt2 owner and track guy, I think the gtr’s heavy steering feels exactly like a comp car !!! Best steering out there imo and makes a 991 rs feel like a limp noodle
@@iLLGT2 I was agreeing with Matt's comment in the video. Coming from a 997 GT3 RS 4.0 owner, I don't find it as communicative or as sharp as the Porker.
@@khayman9574 this had a face lift in 2019 wich i think he means with a different front lights and a little different interior. Correct but the sl will replace the cabriolet gt not the coupe. For the coupe it will come a new gt in 2022, that’s what is rumored at least.
@@iwatchfamilyguy dude !! It is 90% same lmao.. i owned both plz dont talk if you do not know.. the small changes are not huge at all unless you’re trying to shave 10-20 sec off your 7 min lap time on a track 🤣
I don't get it with modern hyper sports cars; petrol heads celebrate the scintillating character of their sensational internal combustion engines but the cars are virtually entirely controlled by ultra complex electronics. Why not just go the whole hog and get an electric car?
If there's a car developed with the help of Lewis Hamilton this is it and you can see why he clearly transformed the Car in many aspects making it the best in AMG range.
This car could be a nice car if AMG would have had the same team that developed the 6.2 NA engine. This engine throttle response in low revs and high revs is far from uniform, the acceleration pedal seems mushy and irresponsive in many situations and driving it slowly the lack of crispiness in the engine response makes it a dull experience, plus the poorly programmed steering wheel feedback, that is excessively heavy. Also the engine sound is something just made for showing up in the low mid range. The engine sound looses interest as it reaches the higher revs, and at low rpm the sound seems to expressive compared to the engine response and as you progress it becomes less and less interesting. They should take some lessons from Porsche or from other high end car specialists. Or even maybe their previous engineers. It is a shame that these types of details were poorly engineered and designed for an AMG car...
Ferrari? Skylines and supras have gained alot more value than Ferraris, even amgs are gaining values, and Porshes...go look at what 997 gt cars are going for now
@@gixxr88 Notice how this video is about new cars? Did that ever occur to you while tying your response? AMGs are not gaining value in a market, I have an AMG and will be the first to admit it (see profile picture before trying). My new AMG is worth ALOT less than before I rolled it off the dealership. So is every other new AMG aside from MAYBE a GTR which MIGHT get you MAYBE break even.

I think the AMG GT R hit the depreciation curve hard in late 2020. Now everyone is realizing the value with it and the R8 V10+.
Yeah exactly
The question is... You buy this one or the R8 with the best production engine on the market ? I cant decide
@@adambenk0 I drove the AMG and love it. Also looks better imo than the new refreshed R8. Fake vents up front and the rear looks so blocky. I would AMG.
@@adambenk0 r8 is getting boring
The sexiest car ever made in history, plus it is a serious competitor to the GT3RS, n the engine sounds and performs like a N.A engine.
Kudos to AMG for making a turbo motor sound so spectacular
This car is absolutely stunning I would take it over a Porsche any day. Looks so special and unique
Agree.
The Gt3Rs is way superior than the amg gt-r
For the price though, of course it should be. Still the GTR is sexy and is def worth what you’re paying for.
Great review. You present really well fella! 😁 Enjoyed that. Thanks for posting. 👍
GTR is a cotemporary classic. No need for the SLS or the older Black Series. The GTR trumps them all. It is that good to drive.
Cracking video, another one that's got me deciding which liver to sell...
Great camera work ... as always great clip and top quality production ...
AMG's always are great fun, make you giggle when you press loud pedal

I thought I was gonna get a GTR but ended up with a GT4 instead haha. I wanted a 2020 GTR but they were still out of my price range, like a 991.2 GT3
@@joe718gt4 gt4 is an awesome machine, enjoy it
Pretty sure is a hydraulic steering rack, but im not so sure. Its one of the best steering in any modern car.
@@CP-vg4vy it is indeed

Look at those stunning Strines roads. Not a bad car n’all. I’d love a GTR 🟢

yup that sheffield weather
As you say stunning value. Missing my old Gts now!
Really liked how it drives but I think it's a bit too extrovert for my taste :-D I would probably go with a Porsche instead if I had the money.
Best sounding turbo charged V8 in the world, imho.
That’s a stunning colour. AMG make some fabulous sounding V8’s.
that thing is so underated
Sure is!
Very tempting 🤔

For the track guys the long hood and tight cabin / ergos are negatives. 911 all day over this
what about the issue with the carbon ceramic brakes?

Top drawer!!! Want want want! I wonder if they’ll stay strong at £100k now.
Hope you found one soon
Just waiting for the face-lift versions to drop in price...
I don't think there will be another facelift. Rumour has it the GT will be replaced next year by the new SL. I could be wrong though

I'm getting that car this year ...

I'd get the s to be fair and take the cup2 off for ps4s
You can get a GTS for half the price of the GTR, and it's almost exactly the same, if you want more horse power it's easy to tune it.
It’s not even close to being the same

Can they? Wow
@@scd apologies, perhaps not GT 'R' but surely these at 60k is 99% of the fun for a fraction of the price.

needs 4 wheel drive, wasted power
No, since it loses value, rather than hold or even gain.
If you can't afford a Ferrari you shouldn't spend 100k on a car. You arn't in a position to.
