  • The AMG GT 43 is the gateway into this elusive club at Mercedes. On the outside you get a unique front fascia, AMG wheels, rear bumper and AMG exhaust. On the inside there is a balance of sport and luxury. Under the hood you will find a 3.0L turbocharged inline-6 that produces 362HP & mated to a 9-speed TCT. Is the 2021 Mercedes AMG GT 43 a TRUE sport performance sedan?

  • @tgg_music2
    @tgg_music2 Před 3 lety +7

    I think for the money, an E53 sedan is probably a better buy depending on how you spec it. Slightly more performance, more room in the interior, and it's probably more comfortable overall. As a bigger guy, I look at comfort and fit first, but the E53 has more horsepower as well. The GT 43 starts at $90k, and the E53 at $74k. For the price of the GT 43, you could spec ventilated front seats and still save money.

    I think mercedes and bmw is watering down AMG and M by putting those badges on every car and there are not the true AMG or M model.
