Maybe I'm biased but the GT3 is a much more involving car. I had the first CLS 55 AMG in town when they first came out way back then and got bored of it in 3 months. I realize this is a different engine etc but still.

Incredible - it needs to get used to it - at least for me as an mechancial enigneer who always has sympathy for the mechanical stuff ....

Noise wise this enigne is monster and goes like hell

Just do it! It is a very rev happy car.

Red stitched end caps and dash looks amazing, the sound of the exhaust makes my ears tingle. Impressive that you found roads to open it up like that.

Thank you for posting!

Default 6K. mic can't handle how loud the sound is so it's distorted at times.
Typo. Meant 9K
