    Default picked up a '17 AMG GTS

    Loved the SLS, and love the GTS. I wasn't enthralled with the look of the refresh - too busy....so I picked up a 2017 instead. Was looking at R8s and some other things, but found the market to be a pain to navigate on the used side and a new Gen2 R8 was more than I wanted to spend.

    Options:

    -Track pack (sport wheel, stiffer setup, aggressive camber, sport steering wheel, active engine mounts and some other stuff.
    - diamond white paint
    - Matte Carbon interior
    - night package
    - forged wheels.

    I'll throw up some interior shots, but it's the silver/black two tone.

    Paperwork is done, delivery tomorrow AM.

    First AMG - makes me feel like a real beyonder!

    For a first AMG, you went pretty high up in the list of AMG's though. Nice pickup!!! Too bad no Designo Magno White for this car. Matte white paint job is sexxxxx

    Well imagine if instead of writing that letter to the editor, she just posts on a car forum for car enthusiasts. That's Kritafo.

    Awesome!

    That car is so high up my want list right now... Got teased by sitting in one when I was shopping for my C.

    Enjoy every minute with it!

    I'm not actually that picky about color. Although that matter white is amazing. I just have had too many black cars in a row, and I'm sick of the work involved. My second choice was the brilliant blue, which looks amazing as well.

    Your C63S is one of my favorite cars on the market right now. If I didn't have the extra spot, I'd have either that or an E63 in my garage to replace my CTS-V. Mercedes is killing it right now.

    Well I certainly like it so far

    One day when I can justify a summer car the GT S will be on the short list for sure.

    Half the Merc and BMW purchases on this forum are either SUVs or this godawful almost SUV things. This is a proper car. Well done.

    That's awesome. 10/10 better than an R8, IMO. Congrats.
