- The new Mercedes AMG GT63 has been revamped to run on a completely different platform and compete with the Porsche 911. Is it just an AMG SL with a Roof, or is there more to the story?

I'd take the Aston Martin Vantage over this. Same engine. Has physical buttons, and in my opinion looks better
Agreed. Very similar in price
Vantage is also more sporty, given its mid engine setup
I agree 100%
correct
The design for sure is a win. I wish their EVs follow more this line
I wont lie this thing is beautiful but they need to get that weight under control
The weight is not my biggest issue with it. But 4300 pounds is a lot.
You don’t swipe the door handle. You just press ouch the indented square part on it. On approach with the key fob the handle will automatically pop out. Again, if you swipe it won’t open until you touch the indented square. This car is a beast.
the more I watch this channel the more I enjoy it. You seem like a true car guy instead of some biased reviewers
At least it doesn’t look like a modern BMW
2:43 perfectly placed “pause” 🤝🏽
Its the brand new C63S with 4Matic....coupe
Honestly that's not a bad way to look at it haha
Looks better than the 911. The 911 is beautiful but a little on the boring side with respect to looks
This has definitely gotten me more looks than any 911
@@CarswithMiles …great video Miles, enjoy your content!!!
Never thought I'd hear "pause" in a car review... This is getting out of hand. 😂
Great video keep up the good work
2:17 did he say pause..
this car is so beautiful
I can afford that car. Now where did I put that Monopoly board-money? 😁
I'll take a Porsche 911 Turbo or a Aston Vantage instead, they both feel more special. On a side note i am thinking of getting a used Jaguar F Type with the V8 engine - pretty excited, it seems to be really good value on the used market 😮.
I am also thinking of getting a X350 Jaguar XJR - you don't see cars like that anymore
The Jags are fantastic
With as much as you speak about these cars, I would love to get your opinion on the Audi RS7 performance.
Beautiful piece of machinery and very practical indeed - yet, I’d still have a 911 each and every day. Great review Miles!
The GT63 is beautiful. Idc what critics say
'Slidability' is a perfect teem.
Dope video idea: 2019 AMG GTC vs 2019 Aston Vantage. Both are the same money ($80k) and probably more fun to drive than this car
If I can get my hands on them I'd definitely do it
The weight, the copy & pasted interior & no dedicated RWD option is disappointing
It’s beautiful to look at though
Totally agree
The 911 didn't start the single tail light bar.
Whenever auto maker try to share chassis with different models I feel like buyers are getting ripped off cause that makes it cheaper for them to produce.
Definitely a cost saving benefit for AMG
Usually, that wouldn't be much of a problem It's okay to try to minimize production costs, because when the company makes more profit on a product they're encouraged to stick with that product line, but where it becomes a problem is when they're replacing an exceptional proven platform with another platform that compromises the essence of the car, It's just not right.
The corvette lines are pitiful compared to this IMO. You can’t but a Turbo S for anywhere near MSRP😂
911 hasn’t got anything interior wise compare to this if you honest. This car is the fastest around the circuit go and find out !!!
So the Amg gt platform is dead now? Wouldn't that be a waste or it's so old to a point that they stop using it?
I think Mercedes found it simpler to merge platforms for two different product lines (GT and SL)
Not one person I know who has the first gen AMG wants to switch to this. It’s too Heavy. Weighs as much as a Panamera. Nobody wants that massive screen. We want buttons. We all wanted a more raw car. Don’t get me wrong. It’s a great car, but not many people will buy it. It’s an SL in coupe form. Thats all it is. Too expensive. Many better options in that price range. Even if it was already at depreciation prices, I wouldn’t trade my GTS for it.
10/10
This one looks gorgeous, but some people hate all-new Mercedes cars, for no reason , they just like hating
I think everyone has a reason that could be viewed as valid in their own eyes
No, just some people like hating like BMW fans, I'm a Mercedes fan and the EQ line-up is ugly I don't like it but when there is a beautiful car it doesn't matter from wich brand you should give credit to it no matter what fan car you are @CarswithMiles
@@adilou9633 Most of the hate I've seen for new Mercedes cars is for two specific reasons:
1. The move to hybrid powertrains with smaller ice engines combined with a battery pack and electric motors. In particular this is mainly a complaint with the new C 63, because the car no longer sounds as good and it also increases the weight, and potentially complexity of future repairs. But as you can see, even this GT is heavier than the old generation despite not turning into a hybrid yet. The increased weight means the car is less exciting to drive on a track or "fun" roads. And same with the sound, the issue is that it's less exciting to drive because the new sound from the smaller engine isn't as exciting.
2. The loss of physical buttons on the interior with everything switching to ipad in the center of the car. Many people prefer the feeling of pressing a physical button, and there's also the whole "don't fix what isn't broken" philosophy.
You don't have to agree with their reasons, because these are subjective preferences of course, but it's not "for no reason"
@timeslowingdown hybrid is forced to do it because of the new regulations of the European Union, I agree with you about the c63, in terms of the interior I see a lot of CZcamsrs don't complain about Tesla using all things in a screen, all say it's good and minimalist but with Mercedes they complain
Pirce is laughable, you can get a 2020 GT63s and a used GT s for that price and just drive either one depending on your mood. Or better yet get that C8 Z06...
The taillights remind me of the roma
I can see where the comparison comes from
You are supposed to tap the door handle to pop out (not brush it). And tap in anywhere but on the small rectangle. Then it opens, like always.... CZcamsrs please spend more time with the product you are reviewing... And cut the TopGear crap on marketing cars by saying that their most beautiful angle is the ugliest... In this instance, the tail lights... No, they are killer beautiful.
My take on the taillights is called... An opinion. And cannot be deemed as incorrect
Kinda looks like a Z4
The car industry is evolving, and maybe us car enthusiasts will need to do the same. I like to hypothesise that AWD is making our streets safer.
Tesla's are in thousands of accidents every year. I think it all comes down to driver attentiveness and skill level.
You're right that for the average person, AWD is somewhat safer. However, I don't think the new AMG GT is meant for enthusiasts. It's mainly for the American and East Asian markets and in Germany for... two certain demographics.
I prefer the guy rating the car ngl. 😝
To each their own
@@CarswithMiles 😭 lmao,
All you guys just hate on merc 🤷🏾♂️🤷🏾♂️simple.
I don't get the difference between this and the SL
This has a hard top not convertible... lolol
@@timeslowingdown there are plenty of cars that have a convertible version and aren't treated as different models. That can't be the only difference.
To me SL is one of the most beautiful cars ever and apparently lighter eventho convertible! So why would you get a GT. True GT should be a light car like 1600 kg imo. I personally liked how in 2016 Mercedes came close to Porsche dynamic wise with the old GT and GT had a better design interior and exterior. At this time SL is better option than GT.
this ran an 11.2 quarter on road conditions I saw the e ray do a 10.4. This merc sucks.
The previous GT looked better imho, this looks too Porsche that went to Burger King too many times.
Personal taste but the previous gen is an absolute beast. Did you drive the GTR?
This is the thing about modern day wanna be car journalists, you lot don’t even own these cars but go get them for a day and make videos. Your main purpose is to make money off CZcams. Majority of you never owned a true sports car.
How can you review a car like this and go seat at the back and say “you cannot got a human back there” as if the car was made to haul humans.
You lot compare Porsche and amg cars and fail to understand that both companies have different philosophies. If all cars where the same like how electric cars are then what would be the fun and enthusiasm in driving them. You really think Porsche can’t straight pipe their cars for better sound? You lot have to really think before you come in here. These contents are just made for kids to watch and salivate over cars.
Not everyone needs pops and bangs. My GTS cayman is stock and standing next to it, sounds amazing and I feel same about my 63s. To each its own but remember manufacturers are out for a profit and some have cut corners and some have tried to stay true to their philosophy until times change.
A lot of scattered points here. But understand that I would make these videos for free (and a lot of the time I do). It's simply something I enjoy doing. And I drive every car I Review for as long as humanly possible before putting together my thoughts. I've put nearly 600 miles on the GT in the week I've had it. And I feel like that's enough time to put together a comprehensive review.
I made a lot of 911 Turbo comparisons here because that's simply AMGs target rival with this GT. And if you go on websites like Car and Driver, they say the exact same thing.
My main purpose in creating content is to put together a story that makes sense. And do so in a way that I enjoy and that hopefully others enjoy too. And if every car journalist had to own every car they reviewed in order for it to have validity; then this medium simply wouldn't exist.
Mate I understand every journalist can’t own every car. The bottom line is every car is curated for a purpose and it brings variety. Your and others who do these videos make it as if a negative aspect on the manufacturer if the exhaust doesn’t sound the way you want. Also, driving it for 600 miles is never the same as having the car for a year at least. Living with the car. That being said, I like your eloquence and by the way, this is coming from a chap who actually owns the cars you review (not all but yes). We drive these cars for the visceral experience and I’ll criticize Merc for looking like Tesla interiors these days but hey, they want the glamor and glitz. If you are in Maryland sometime, hola and we will burn some rubber in a GTR, amg.
There are already test mules of an RWD GT63, which people assume will be the GTS or GTR or whatever.
The advantages of a shared platform is they can mess around with details to alter. I don't think its necessarily bad for the base model to have more breadth in capability so as to appeal to more people, which is I think what the intent was for this one - making it more viable for more people.
How many variants of the 911 are there? Don't see why AMG can't take the same approach with this one.
Hopefully we do get that RWD 63!
Mercedes have lost their mojo long time ago, dido for bmw.
It ugly
I dig the design
