  • 2024 Mercedes-AMG GT63 review by The Straight Pipes. The Mercedes AMG GT 63 is putting down 577 horsepower and 590 lb-ft of torque from a 4L Twin Turbo V8. At $233,005 CAD, would you take it over the Porsche 911 Turbo S, Audi R8 V10?

      yep until they brake very soon unfortunately. Also i thought we were over the "hand build" lie. Mercedes in its entire history did not employ enough workers to make that many v8 by hand. They literally made hundreds of thousand of those. Its just a gimmick.

      this car is more expensive than an m8 competition, less luxurious/comfortable and spacious than the m8 competition and is SLOWER and less sporty than the m8 competition. the last amg gt was at least unique with its front mid-engine, rwd layout, it was a truly dedicated sports car, but this new amg gt is really just a worse m8 competition.

    so everyone's clear this new AMG is now just a Front Engine "GT" car whereas the old AMG was a legit Front-Mid Engine car, so a true configuration intended for Motorsports/Racing and to compete against their Stuttgart Cousins Porsche in the 911 (which it did for the last 8 years). for example, the new $300K Mustang GTD special that just raced LeMans finishing an impressive P3/P4 in the GT3 class on it's debut ALSO uses this same "divorced" Engine/Rear Transaxle configuration expressly for an "end game" of competing against the might of the Rear Engined 911. also ref: Corvette's C7, C6, etc.
