Benchmarking AMG GT? Low benchmark IMO.

Not a low bar to clear if ity benchmarking against the Black Series.

Clearly not a black series and wasn't even 2nd gen. That's pretty low bar IMO .

 

[Falcon]

and wasn't even 2nd gen

the new amg gt is a downgrade

Yeah the new GT is heavier and has a less exotic construction than the 1st gen GT as it shares a platform with an SL.

The old GT is a higher bar than the new GT.

 

[bogglo]

We don't know what specifically in the performance they are benchmarking against.

Speaking of AMGs, I still can't believe Merc managed to screw up most of their AMG models in just 1 generation.

 

[CRSKTN]

I would hazard a guess of "other cars underpinning GTD offerings" like the 911 GT3, AMG, Aston, etc?

Moving from M177 to M139 is clearly a bad decision, I haven’t seen a single W206 C63 on the road. Wish they have kept the M156, what an engine.
