Mercedes AMG GTC Review

- The Mercedes Benz AMG GT-C is seemingly aimed squarely at being one of Porsches biggest headaches, it's one of Mercedes most expensive cars and it has serious intentions; being possessed of engaging handling and an impressive V8 engine all of which puts it firmly into that hallowed Porsche 911 territory.
Thank you for watching 😊

"hollywood boulevard comes to llandudno promenade" classic :-)} loads of spot on journalism here, fantastic filming and editing - I'd take a Porsche 911 over this AMG GT but that said what an impressive car
another skillfully made video Roger, and a great car reviewed once more, I'd take a Porsche but its a good shout from Merc
Many thanks!
Yet another outstanding video Mr Bailey very informative .stunning car beautifully filmed…
Very Glad you enjoyed it
if this channel got some exposure it would be huge, the quality of work is among the best I've seen, keep them coming.
thanks, will do
Another great review Roger! It’s really informative as I’m thinking of buying one of these! Keep your excellent reviews coming.
thanks Darryl, GT-C is the one to get 👍🏼
Beautiful cinematography Roger. As always, your videos are loaded with well composed thoughts.
That being said, I would like to respectfully disagree with your presupposition. Mercedes makes heavy, cushy cars with huge engines. This is a wholly formula from Porsche, except for the Panamera. Although it’s design is very different from the Panamera, I think the two cars are far closer than the AMG is to a 911.
Hi David, you make a good point thanks 👍🏼 Roger
I would consider myself a Porsche man but I have an AMG Gts for the V8 drama. Very accurate car review Roger…👍
its always good to have a bit of drama ! cheers - RB
Loved the review! I've been looking at AMG GT's and this has convinced me the GTC is the best option and I have found one to go and look at, thanks
Great to hear!
And not a single Llandudno sheep to be seen. Or did the spine tingling V8 scare them away!? 🐏💨 8-\\...
While it's certainly a striking car and will definitely get the more looks if parked next to a 911, I'd still opt for a 911 Carrera S4 over this Mercedes beast. Especially if it was raining. Which, in Wales, it normally is 8-))...
Not sure if it was me of the way it looked, but the centre console and other parts of the cabin looked looked... _Plasticy! 8-\\...
Regardless. A very good and honest review Mr. Bailey. Some great videography. Especially from your _"wingman"_ flying over head 8-))...
Your No1 Stalker 8-))...
PS - I know, I'm sure, I've heard it before. I think...!? But who was the end music by? ;-))...
it certainly attracts attention this AMG and is a feel good kind of experience, the cabin fittings are mostly good quality excluding the infotainment screen. Thanks again for you continued stalking, its appreciated, all the very best TZ - RB & JB
ps... end music is
In And Out Of Love (Tigerblood Jewel Remix) I got it from epidemic sound.
You speak with the skill set of a writer. Your respect of language and delivery make the subject of your videos all the more enjoyable. I'm glad I found your channel! :-)
Thank you, really appreciated
I'm binge watching these videos they are excellent, they're like mini movies
Most excellently presented and produced as always Roger. Cheers from Ontario, Canada.
Many thanks Mike 👍🏼
The quality of this videos is insane.
Love these AMG's the looks being their strong point for me, great video
Hi Rog, Top work as usual, where did you film that? It wasn't clear on the video. I also liked the road you were on climbing out of town.🙂
Hi John, its Llandudno in North Wales, we drove out of town and up the Great Orme, its a nice spot.
That is one sweet ride. Great job Roger!
thanks airccoled 👍🏼
Another great video, very informative, as usual. Thank you.
My pleasure!
Great video Roger
thanks Waseem
I own an AMG GTC Roadster... friggin love it
It definitely has presence and certainly sounds fantastic - far more interesting than the 911 - for a spirited drive though it looks like it would be a handful, more boxer than ballerina
yes its a bit of a handful
"the British way we do things" :)
What a beautiful car.
its not meant to be a Porsche 911 type of car and thats confirmed from whats said here, it sounds like its a good drive though with decent steering and turn in and that engine sounds amazing. another excellent video mate.
cheers Jake
Roger you ARE the man
Richard - thanks
I'd absolutely take one over a Porsche all day... the greater problem is that I'd probably take an LC500 over both.
But seriously seeing a GTC or an LC500 in real life, on the road, always turns my head. If I see a 911, even a really nice one, I'm kinda over it. Sure, it'd be superior on a track, or in a race, but I'm probably not going to be doing either of those things.
If Darth Vader had a car
Nice run up the Great Orm
Indeed
Funny, when you look at the company and the car, you'd think this would be the last vehicle that would attempt sportiness. It looks so much more like it belongs in the luxury cruiser category with cars like the Lexus LC500 or Jag F-type. No way it could take on Porsche, maybe an Audi R8?
Anyway, great video as usual!
Good point ..
Leave out the music. Just want to hear the engine & whatever info you have to offer
Hi Roger, any material regrets swapping out of the 718 Spyder to the new GT3 ? (Thinking is doing same).
I actually kept my 718 Spyder and have the two cars. Glad I did as the Spyder is likely to stay with me the longest of the two.
no manual?
Evening Roger!
Evening François - first as always !
mega car
I used to be a Porsche fanboy and owned them for 11 years. However, after being let down by them too many times, my heart now lies elsewhere. Been looking at a Jaguar F-Type mainly but these AMGS Mercs really do look brutal. Bit pricey, though and no longer a fan of Germanic engineering, which is overrated and lacks emotive character. The perfect sports car doesn't exist, they are all flawed in some way.
Will never buy a car with an Ipad glued to the dash. I will not be cancelling my order for the 992 Targa4S! 😃
hopefully not too long to wait 👍🏼
@@RogerBaileyOnCars next in line for allocation. I am near Chicago.
Way, way, way better than Porsche! Way to much whinning.
