What a baller statement! " I was at the AMG factory and it's not much bigger than my garage"
Humblebrag
"JAY FVCKIN LENO" !!!
@@mollari2261 Not even a humblebrag.
Reality is that Jay is getting old, and he is saying and doing some odd stuff, not counting the fact that he is not at all up to date with what was going on.
I doubt he has been to the AMG factory since he got his McLaren Merc.
It's like 20 years ago.
Not Baller. Shows they aren't over producing. How many SQ FT do you need? Our warehouse is 60K SQ FT. 20 million in supplies.
Leno, like most Americans, care only about size business, not quality
I like how this guy it's not afraid to mention other companies
😄😄
Whoever decided to send this dude is a genius.
Jay 245 ci or about. Oh and this "guy" is Tommy Kendall. Maybe look him up and read some.
Successful people are never crazy like poor people I noticed they usually will compare effectively
I'm surprised that Jay thought that cars traction control was just "on or off". Even 20 years ago, many cars had "wet, snow, mud" etc settings.
This guy is so freaking good at explaining stuff. I am in awe. i’m sure it doesn’t get any better than this.
I hope your talking about Jay. Because the other guy definitely was not very knowledge. He didn't explain anything that a car guy doesn't already know and understand.
@@Mike-dy8sj so true glad im not the only one who noticed
Unreal car. I really like how Kendall is kinda fan-boy over the car, like he's truly stoked to talk about and ride in it, while giving a technical analysis of it. He's definitely a true car guy; I always enjoy seeing him on here!
Thanks, Jay and crew for another great episode!✌️❤️🙂🇨🇦
Ridiculous that it can’t be used on the street in the US. I want to drive my cars. Putting my car on a tow truck to the track is just too much work. The car is almost useless. This guy representing the car is really terrific.
How couldn’t you be a fan! I bet there is at least 500 million people in the USA alone that would absolutely kill for this car and think about the fact that they only made like 1000 of them …… it makes gold look less than worthless
Mr. Leno: We wish you a speedy recovery. Thank you for your work in the entertainment world and your automotive points of view. 😊👍🏽
You had me at "...race car in a tuxedo" Well... you had me way before that. This video is a perfect example of why I eagerly wait for each new 'ride'. Jay, your obvious connoisseurship of the driving experience is what lifts these episodes beyond vicarious pleasure. Loved it. Keep it coming!
Tommy Kendall still looks good. I remember meeting him in the days of AMG challenge... He is an amazing driver.
Glad to hear from Tommy. Mad respect to Robert and always to Jay. Stay safe and healthy as we will always have an appetite for quality cars and smart people talking about them
Quality...... It is guaranteed to breakdown..... It is worthless in 10 years...... MB thinks this is OK......
@@thatbeme not in love with mb. Repair cost and up front cost out of my price range. This car will continue to appreciate. Worthless may be a reflection of you ability to pay. Not unlike my budget.....but worthless?
@@mikehotchkiss8975 A 200,000 MB is worth 10,000 in 10 years.... If anyone is dumb enough to buy it.... Worthless.... 🙂
@@thatbeme Better to remain silent and thought a fool than to speak and remove all doubt.. 🤫

Mr. Leno and Mr. Kendall thank you for showing us this timeless road going race car.
This Mercedes more then any other they sell today , harkens back to a time when Mercedes was truly a craftsmanship driven company.
To see these race cars on track and they are fighting against much more aero clean cars and beating them always amazes me.
That front end is a true jewel of this car and the resulting blending all the way around the car is just perfect.
When I see just the regular road cars Mercedes makes like this I always smile.
Because this is a car done right.
In every way.
Bravo Mercedes Bravo.
I have a BA degree in Automotive Technology from 1992. I started my apprenticeship in 1986. Just the difference in technologies in those 6 years is astounding. The industry moves so fast that if you don't constantly study, you're lost in days, not in years. I can clearly remember learning about Can-Bus wiring controls and ceramic pistons in the 80's but didn't see it widely used until well into the turn of the century. My father has a masters degree in the same field from the early 80's. When I brought home an 86 Shelby Daytona, we both walked around it astonished at the technology crammed into it. When we figured out that it could troubleshoot itself, we both knew that (as mechanics), we had just been down graded to parts changers! Thanks Jay, this one is a good reminder of how fast technology is moving.
This is definitely one of my favorites of all time on Jay’s. Jaw dropping car and the information and commentary from Tommy is incredible. I know Jay is trying not to let on how insane this car is…
Tommy may well be the best guest I have seen on JLG. Informative, erudite, understands the engineering better than any other guest I can recall, at least to my ear. And of course we know that he knows his car business, from his successes in his driver years.
You've never seen Donald Osborne then 😝 Just ribbing you. Tommy was amazing.
This is so unfair this should have been Shmee150
Tim is literally traveling Route 66 in his AMG Black Series as we speak
Jay could have waited 3 days…
Yea I agree with you can't forget about the science and engineering behind these amazing cars!
“Race car in a tuxedo” is the best line I’ve heard about Mercedes.
Jay the professor of automobiles
Tommy has hardly aged in 20 years, always had a gift for delivering informative, engaging analysis on whatever he's covering. Met him in Monterey a while back, fun times.
Thanks Jay, always compelling to sit in on a conversation between two people who know their stuff
Jay is like an automobile encyclopedia 😂
Jay always appears to half space-out when his guests start explaining technical stuff. Or when his guests exclaim some surprise about the car's dynamics, Jay sitting over there staring into space. hahaha
This car is absolutely a work of art . I will have one !
Thanks for watching
Text me above, you won yourself a price🎉🎉
I just watched the whole thing because of Tommy I seriously miss seeing him on tv shows hes one of very few drivers who are so knowledgeable. This is a guy I could split a case of beer with in the garage and just never run out of automotive things to talk about. A serious breath of fresh air.
I miss Speed Channel and watching the WSC, GT, TC, V8SC racing, etc.
Jay lives the car enthusiasts dream life 👑 what a legend!
Jaw dropping...I'm in awe of this car. Thank you Jay for letting us mortals in, and be a part of the conversation of two real car guys! Thank you!
This was very insightful and thoroughly entertaining. Tommy really knows his stuff. I like the videos of Tommy driving cars that aren't intended to be a race car at silly fast speeds right on the jagged edge.
jay always counters the amazing new tech with a story about his steam car
What a amazing motorcar . Every bit of it. Exhaust note is amazing as well .
You’re a lucky man mr Leno thanks so much for showing us these things in a non pretentious down to earth manner . Amazing
Awesome Jay. Simply awesome. Great show and one of my favorite cars you showcased. It was cool seeing you live in your P1 on the 405 just cruising as well.
One of my favorite guests. Knows his stuff. I learned a ton about racing cars just now! Beautiful car as well. 🚙 🏎
I have been a fan of you Jay, I don`t know since when, I`m in your age group and this is the first time I am responding on any one of your Garage
episodes. The knowlage you have given me(and this gentleman with you) in this episode alone, technical, history, disign, philosophy, is beond compare. Thanks so much for all that, from a Canadian.
Great video! Tommy is awsome at discussing racing and car tuning with Jay.
Mad respect to AMG. If I had the money, this would be awesome to own.
Better buy your Powerball ticket for tonight.
I love Jay Leno, such an amazing guy - he knows a lot about cars but he is still so humble. Love watching his car reviews - always with the great questions when it comes to car science with practicality. Thank you for everything @jay
Thanks again Jay for another great start to the week!
Had one in the shop a couple weeks ago for a final inspection after it had to spend some time at the body shop. Truly an amazing machine.
"The AMG factory isn't much bigger than my garage." A sentence we all wish we could say lol. Life goals. 👍
As a lover of everything automotive Jay always has a valid point of view regardless of the era he and his guest discuss. I enjoy the fact that his recollections draw various parallels between old and new. I suppose that he and I are of the same age but I find that certain aspects of his love of cars and generally what he appreciates about the experience of driving are similar to how I myself experience living in the drivers seat. I too, have always shunned asking the car to do things that it was not ‘intended’ to do, witness launch control and ‘overtaxing’ drivetrains etc. Give me a rolling start putting the car through its paces and enjoying the feedback while rolling on the power. Jay provides me with all things automotive, I so much appreciate the details of restoration and maintenance in the various videos where we get to see the ‘bones’ of what makes cars so enjoyable. I am looking forward to his speedy and complete recovery to the point where he’s back doing what he loves best. A real GENUINE guy…!
Very beautiful auto....!! Thank you Tommy, Robert and Jay..............!!!!!
Long Live The Leno!
YUMM!!
Just have to say that so much info about performance cars was so concisely conveyed here and also the car was pretty cool too
Gotta love this guy, gets all the good stuff
Not sure about the paint accents but yet another awesome video Jay. Your my hero for a number of different reasons. You're the absolute best. Thank you so much for what you do. Greatly appreciate all you do. Again, awesome.
I really like that paint job.
Jay has such a great way of making you feel like he's your buddy talking car stuff. He's a warehouse of car knowlage!
I love the conversation flow. The wind tunnels of conversation.
Love Tommy's passion and explanations. Could listen all day
The “Corona” show’s are still my favorites but when Jay gets someone on that’s an honest knowledgeable car guy, someone on Jay’s level or even more, just like Tommy, it makes such a great show!!! I love it when they are just enjoying the time with the cars. Great Episode Jay!!!!! Thank you both!!!
I hope you heal up very soon and you’ll be in our prayers. Thank you!
Thanks for watching
Text me with the above number , you won yourself a price🎉🎉
LOL Jay talking about getting caught at a different pizza place is priceless
I worked for Joe on Sunset when my Hollywood hustle crashed. Joe is a badass pizza master. I delivered to some wildly famous people who met Joe in NYC and continue to rave about his pies. Joe has a distinct way of yelling at someone while being friendly enough to make you wonder why one would go anywhere else? I didn’t realize how Joe is Pizza royalty and crazy famous for making the best pizza in LA of not world. Have him make you a White Pie and it is so good. It makes me cry. I live 400 miles away from LA and hearing his name makes me want to get in my car and drive 8 hours to get a slice. Joe is a badass pizza master.
@@patrickmccauley8463 hahaha that's great. I'm sure his Pizza is great. There's a local joint around here that's the same thing. People come from far away just to get his pizza.
I love this car, super underrated and definitely a future classic.
"underated with an F-1 engine?"
@@conor7154 just realise that anyone that uses the words 'underrated' or 'literally' is an idiot..
@@jjones2509 this car doesn’t have an F1 engine, sure F1 cars used to have Flatplane V8s but so did a lot of race cars, the Black series engine doesn’t share a lot with its F1 counterpart besides the design of its crankshaft
@@jjones2509 It is the AMG One that has a Formula One power train.
For those wondering on their off-the-cuff cubic inch displacement guesses (goal is 4 liters, which is 244.095ci):
Leno: 231ci: 3.785 liters
Kendall: 260ci: 4.260 liters
Leno wins by accuracy and also Bob Barker rules (closest without going over) but both are reasonable guesses.
Excellent review .. appreciate the technical knowledge like the dual clutch operation
Could never afford one lol but I love the engineering that went into it thanks for sharing Mr Leno
This guy is good, solid articulation and expression for the job.
Always enjoyable watching Jay
- the legend - 👍🙂
Great history lesson Mr. Leno, the example about the canoes made it so simple to understand. This is what I truly love about your channel, you make even the most expensive cars, simple for us to understand and you give us the opportunity to experience the car for what it truly is, and never mentioning the price. Thank You for that.🙏🏽
A lot of great info in here! Thanks Jay!
Both the AMG GT black series and the SLS AMG black series I am in love with. Such serious super cars, sounds amazing, looks phenomenal and are crazy on the track.
Holy 🤤!
Top 5 faves for sure
This is so cool. We’re lucky to have you and your guests Jay. One of the highlights of my Mondays.
This is One Badass Machine... the looks, the sound . The Whole package says, "Get out of my Way!"
have this guy back, great job
Great to see Tommy Kendall again, Thanks Jay for another great episode.
EXCELLENT guest and auto- wow- keep 'em, coming!
Great episode! Great conversation with knowledgeable guest. Thanks to Robert Herjavec! Wish I hadn’t given away all my old Road and Track Mags.
This car and others like it are truly amazing! Much of the technology will filter down to the average car in one way or another at some point. I can't wait!
Beast! I'm loving the One paint scheme.
Thank you for bringing all these wonderful cars that we might never see.
I've been following the development of this car 🚗 and after watching some really good videos of this car I had a pretty good idea of how how well this car was put together. But after watching this video, Jay I have much more information to process and much more respect for this AMG GT Black Series by Mercedes and AMG then I would have thought possible. A very informative video, professional film crew and a professional consultant. Thanks Tommy, thank you Jay for a wonderful time 👍💯. I saved this video in one of my CZcams playlists because it was so helpful. Have a wonderful day 👍💯!
Truly great guest, not to mention Jay who is the real star, and the car ain’t bad either!!!
8 commericials but more than worth it. Could listen to the two of them, and their knowledge, again and again. Both so filled with knowledge, but still adding some of that to each other. This was just excellent. It's why we watch this channel.
No commercial intrusions here.
@@MarinCipollina Well just haven't set up to eliminate commercials. Jay Leno is worth the 15 second or so intrusions.
I bought a CLA 45 AMG a few months ago and I love driving it. Not only is it great around town, but on the freeway it shifts smoothly and man can it fly.
It’s the entry level of the amgs but I bet it still amazing
Really nice video! Cheers from the Finger Lakes and Watkins Glen!
beautiful machine and mr Tommy did a great presentation.
I'm not from the stone age like Jay but even I remember back in the late 80's when you would see people changing tires every time you went on the expressway. And every big parking lot you would see someone getting a jumpstart from a kind stranger. It's nostalgic but also ... I'm glad cars work now.
What a beauty!!!
I've always liked Tommy Kendall. Thanks for sharing Mr. Herjavec!
Tommy Kendall is soooo fkn knowledgeable!!!! Great video, Beautiful Automobile, thanks Jay. ( thanks Robert Herjavec)
My favorite super car. Love it.
Nice job guys. First class car and video.
Jay Leno always gets great cars on his show.
This makes his show fun to watch. Especially when it's this car. The original AMG GT was brilliant. Especially since it could be driven to San Francisco and back with a well sorted back. Thus I'd love to buy this car one day. Romp on it and do so with ease on the body. (:
Great video, love the paint scheme.
Jay is such a Legend.
I absolutely love these 😍
Mercedez amg gt has always been my dream car and this just put it over the top even more😈💯
Jay is a blast .............love the people Jay has on the show......wish i could drive some of these wonderful engineered cars !
Jay, great video! I'm familiar with the AMG GT platform because I drove the AMG GTS Biturbo at the Mercedes-Benz AMG Driving Academy. Of course the Black Series is a big step up but to drive any of the variants is special. I enjoy my C350 daily driver yet it's fun to drive M-B's supercars, as we both know. :)
Best looking supercar to me it's so beautiful
I love it! Now this is my dream car. I fell in love with MB when I started working at a dealership in 1986. These cars take them to a whole new level.
Robert Herjavec's personal car? That's so badass!!
Jay! Great vid as always. Hey, when will we see another ‘restoration blog’? Lot’s of us really love to the progress on your many projects!
Tyres are a funny thing ive paid a lot and a little for them but it depends on what you’re using for. Winter tyres in summer don’t work and vice versa. Plus how do you want your ride and how do you drive and do you want more of an original feel in an older car.
Thanks Jay for showing a car we can only dream about and make us part of the experience.
Thank you MB! 😉
Right on time!! I was just thinking about getting the gt!!
That is definitely one of the coolest Mercedes paint jobs, amazing.
Just wow.
"A race car in a tuxedo". I agree.
J your my favorite person on TV
Thanks 4 still working
Your the car Guy
What a great show. I learned a lot from Jay's guest.
I'm not usually a Mercedes-Benz fan but that is one great looking car. Well done.
Lol…. Do you know the Mercedes’ UNIMOG!? It’s the most versatile vehicle on earth no other car even comes close to it! It’s litteraly used for everything from agriculture to mining, construction , rescue, ambulance, it has also everything from all wheel steering to steering wheel that slides left to right, portal axles…….
Let’s not forget Mercedes’ double decker bus…..
This was GREAT. Maybe my new favorite episode. Oh, and a great car too...
Love hearing about the specs of this thing. My C63 AMG weighs 3816 pounds this thing is only a couple hundred pounds lighter. But to hear about the brakes and everything else, makes me love it even more, wish I had the money for one of these things. This car is nasty 🤘🤘 thanks Jay for this, and for bringing in a race car driver to help explain it all as well
Love how Jay can being up some 90 year old car that had similar shifting mechanisms. He knows more about the whole history of vehicles
Who is more knowledgeable about cars than Jay?
Jay is a walking wealth of car knowledge both new and old.
Great episode!
Yeah..Tommy and Jay..hangin out in a Merc..This is as good as it gets.
Jay. I am working on the Hammer 6.0l engines for Renntech. They came out in the late 80"s 1986.
Thanks Robert!
Gorgeous absolutely gorgeous piece of engineering
