I have a GTs and I am 6'3". I don't have any issue whatsoever with the gear selector, but I do hear it's a common gripe. I find visibility very, very good as well (once you get your personalized seating position right). I totally agree that it takes WAY too much throttle to activate reverse- it can be really scary in tight quarters. Lastly, the hood is LOOONG with makes every parking barrier experience and adventure.
If that is all you could find wrong with it, surely it's a great car! Some of those things are also a non-issue. Non-fancy doors? surely this is a negative of every other car on the road? Why mention it? Gear selector in the wrong place? I think you're too short. I can reach it just fine but then again, my seat is all the way back (I'm 6ft exactly). I love the steering, feel great to me? Power is fine too, if you have a car that is too powerful (the GT still has way too much) you actually can't enjoy it properly. It also bodes well for the engine longevity if it can handle 600 and it's only pushing 460. Visibility is a little cramped, but that's why I like it. It feels like you're in a fighter jet. And that long nose? I think it's perfect. Each to their own I guess...
The "special" bit on this car is its looks. It's the first Merc in a loooong time that looks iconic, it looks far better than the SLS and yes, way better than the SLR as well. It doesn't need the silly doors with that pretty face!
first of all, under 3s to 60? as a gt this is somewhere around 3.8s... and secondly, why is a mclaren 540c/570s not comparable? if you take a amg gt s and a 540c, i think they are pretty comparable. same price and more or less same power and engine size
Hey Parker I have a question about the Lamborghini huracan. Compared to Audi R8 is the huracan is strada mode as comfortable or is it rough. I need to know before checking if I want one
I don't think the comment about power is really jutified. I mean out of the box this thing runs 11.4 @ 126mph, that's faster than a Jaguar ftype SVR(11.5 @ 122) , the gts is really overlooked when it comes to its performance but it really hangs in there with more powerful cara
The whole point of buying a supercar or a really fast sports car is you sit really low and feel like your in a race car. If you want cars with good visability go buy a sedan or SUV. I recently drove a 570s. The visibility is as good as people say it is. Supercars all have a visibility problem
Looking for an honest and real opinion. Debating between an Audi R8 and an AMG GT (any variant of the AMG GT models). What do you think is a better fit in the 100-120k price range. I’m looking at driving this in town mostly, and looking for something beastly yet comfortable to drive when not gunning it.
Have you reviewed the GT S?? Would love to hear how you compare the two from a power POV and also if there are any seating/cosmetic upgrades/adjustments.
Try to open the car in a cramped car parking with gullwings....here was every day practicality over show effects. The new 63s models have 604 HP with the same 4l engine, so there will be a more powerful GT version in the next time.
300 SL Gullwing is one of the prettiest designs in automotive history imo. For it's time; truly revolutionary. Mercedes Benz; starting a revolution before one even begins! I love that interior in that AMG GT.
1. I disagree. On an AMG GT/R I actually just want 'normal doors'. 2. I agree. Awkward position. 3. I agree. 4. Yes. I think you're right. 5. Front-mid engine design. I accept the compromise Mercedes had to make to achieve this.
Agreed with your comments on this Mercedes GT! That’s one reason I preferred the 911 GT3 over it. How is the huracan steering feel sensation compare to the GT3? Please comment.. 🦅🦅🇺🇸
Well, I'm 6' 6", after seeing how cramped a 5' 11" guy looks in there I'm wondering if I could even fit in one well enough to even be concerned about the shifter.
Enters the video: 80% comments "5 things I hate about..." 10% comments "Lol so much dislikes" 10% comments of basically random sh*t Yep, I knew it *closes the video*.
It's funny that a luxury company makes a GT car and says, "We're aiming at the Porsche 911". No one who drives an AMG GT/GT S will say, "You know what? I'm glad it's worse than a 911 because I didn't want a proper sports car."
I think that's why they built the GT R and GT Pro- R, the Black Series, the Track series and now the GT 2 are all for sale. Benz has a market plan as well.

Only 2 thing I don't like about this car is that I can't afford it plus I feel broke asf just by looking at it
1. Normal Doors
2. Bad shifter position
3. Steering too soft
4. Not enough horsepower
5. Poor visibility

something huge that's fun is missing at any price:

You should make more "5 reasons I LOVE" videos instead because this world is going to shit and we need some happy shit because cars make me happy
5 things i hate about i hate about 5 things i hate
steering of this car is way better than on any current 911 you can buy because its still hydraulic..
Complains about no gull wing doors has a huracan
the exact thing that i wanted to comment.. haha
Should rename the channel " 5 things I hate"

Only 5?

But I own same sunglasses like yours Persol 😃

i used to daily a 2017 AMG GTS, it's not the best daily, comfort isn't really the best,but then again i'm 6"5 so maybe that's why 😂
Hey Parker, Acceleration from 0 to 60 = 4.0 sec and not under 3 sec
Have you reviewed the GT S?? Would love to hear how you compare the two from a power POV and also if there are any seating/cosmetic upgrades/adjustments.

How did we know this video was coming?
We all knew this one was coming lol
You two 👆
The SLS will always be my dream car I'm just sooo mad they quit making it
300 SL Gullwing is one of the prettiest designs in automotive history imo. For it's time; truly revolutionary. Mercedes Benz; starting a revolution before one even begins! I love that interior in that AMG GT.
Also not enough headroom. 5’10” will have a tight squeeze. Ridiculously compact.
3:48 Check engine light is already on :P
😂 Welcome to German engineering... You spend more time at the service center then in the Benz... Wooow
We all knew this was coming
You two 👇
1. I disagree. On an AMG GT/R I actually just want 'normal doors'.
2. I agree. Awkward position.
3. I agree.
4. Yes. I think you're right.
5. Front-mid engine design. I accept the compromise Mercedes had to make to achieve this.
4:51 0-60 under 3 seconds? Where the hell do you get your facts from?!
Leeiska I don't think 150 horsepower will make it as fast as an aventador...
@@manred6253 i actually saw a dragrace with a aventador and a renntech tuned GT, and the GT was faster. Suprisingly
wait what 0-60 in under 3 secs since when ???
I love the normal doors
4:01 those marks😂
It's better than a SLS...
5 seconds later: I hate it because it's not a SLS
Not watching this as ur attention seeking. There simply aren’t 5 things to hate. I’ve got one . They are brilliant!
when a video comes out on this channel of a car review, it's not long till a 'things I hate video comes out'
"Looking through slits like you're in a Camaro" was the most true statement in this video
- From Camaro owner.
Driving a Mercedes AMG GT will definitely help you get more opportunities to look at Slits
Why everybody hated this channel ?
Although i also think its a garage.
Vette or GT? Which feels more luxurious?
Agreed with your comments on this Mercedes GT! That’s one reason I preferred the 911 GT3 over it. How is the huracan steering feel sensation compare to the GT3? Please comment..
🦅🦅🇺🇸
At least the shifter is located on the console unlike other Mercedes benz vehicles
Well, I'm 6' 6", after seeing how cramped a 5' 11" guy looks in there I'm wondering if I could even fit in one well enough to even be concerned about the shifter.

I think you need to do a review of the GT Black Series, the Track Series and new GT2 all marketable and for sale.
5 Things I hate about 5 Things I hate about the Mercedes AMG Gt
I think the seating position might be one of the best aspects of the Amg GT, no offense ^^...
0-60 in under 3 seconds?? Are you sure?
Mercedes-Benz should have made an AWD option. :-P
yeah to drive offroad :) lol
@@strahinjaboskovic305 you must be into monster trucks then! 😂
5 things I love about my 5 things I hate about the Mercedes AMG GT
Why is that the time from 0-60 is not same with the time from 60-120 its still 60mph??
I knew he was going to upload this video after raving about the car 😂
great vid by the way!
5 reasons why i love farshad
I hate I cannot afford one
Whats the difference between the AMG GT and the AMG GTR?
You should drive the amg GTR
If the amg gt has gulping doors that would be the best freaking car i have ever paid eyes on
5 things I hate about the 911r, cgt, 4x4^2, 675 lt
cars now a days are making 200hp per liter this is still around 100 this should be making 650-800 hp easily.

Really helpful video. Keeping my 911.
It's funny that a luxury company makes a GT car and says, "We're aiming at the Porsche 911". No one who drives an AMG GT/GT S will say, "You know what? I'm glad it's worse than a 911 because I didn't want a proper sports car."
I think that's why they built the GT R and GT Pro- R, the Black Series, the Track series and now the GT 2 are all for sale. Benz has a market plan as well.
lol on 4:47 he said 0 to 60 in under 3 seconds i bet the car can achieve it only in his dreams.
Please do a review on a 2002 Audi S4!
How is the mclaren 570 not a competitor to the amg gt ?
My opinion on cars will never be refined enough to point out something I hate on a benz GT
Hate is a strong word
0-60 under 3 seconds? I suppose you meant under 5 seconds for the stock AMG GT? Or for this tuned one you meant under 4 seconds? :D
Well, I suppose Mercedes wants the driver to guess where the front of the car is. Like F1, if you screw up, you lose front wing.
Doors? It doesn't have special doors? Coming from the guy who's Lamborghini doesn't have special doors. I don't agree with #1.
He always says oble instead of able
Id rather it has less power and its cheaper standard and whenever i feel like it spend 3k on a tune
SO, Now that ya live in Cali? is your P.O. Box Changing?
Hey bro what sunnies are they
Didn't even know gintani made a kit for the amg gt
love it parker!
Yeah, the no gull-wing is no-go for me.
1. you can't afford one
2. can't afford one
3. can't afford one
4. can't afford one
5. and again. you cant afford one
0 to 60mph in under 3 seconds?!?
4.0 seconds
0-60 in under 3, you sure about that, doesn't sound right to me
He looks like he’s too close the the wheel , if that airbag came out , it would hurt
you should do shoutouts!! love your vids bro keep it up ;)
2017 bmw m3 comp package comes with the same amount as hp stock as the amg gt lmao
In that case, might as well but a Tesla Model X P100D
I'm not surprised
Isnt there a GT-S that has more HP???
Everyday Muscle yep, and a GT-C and a GT-R
You look like a young Titus Welliver.
