Placed order for GT55
Hello all,
After an on/off relationship with MB, I just placed an order for a 2025 AMG GT 55 Coupe; All black. Link https://www.mbusa.com/en/share/build/A48VEQ
I recently had an S580 which I sold; and earlier in my car history had an SL500 which I really liked. Love the design on the new Coupe.
Went back and forth with silver / selenite, but decided to go all black in the end (sales guy must go crazy with my many changes).
Any other MUST HAVE options ?

+1 axle lift
Ventilated Seats
Massage Seats - they’re quite good but I don’t know if they can come with perf seats
Energizing Air - for the $150 the ionizer is worth it.
For what you’re spending on a 55 try an M8 and for the same $ you’ll get much more car although it’s not as purdy to some…

Imho the M8 is an overall better performer/value but it lacks in things like massaging seats, pano roof option and the more expensive real metal trim bits found in the GT. The GT is also subjectively nicer looking but MB’s quality has been a huge issue where BMW has remained better. There’s great deals on leftover GT’s and it’d be the only way I would justify buying one as they are grossly overpriced for what you get. A BMW M850 will thrash a 55 for ~$40k less, as will an M8 do the same to a 63. I also felt the M8 gives a more compliant ride than the AMG and the M850’s esp with the hp tire/cooling pkg ride is sublime…

My 2025 GT 55 Coupe is scheduled to arrive on December 16th at the port in Baltimore, Maryland. The sales person says that when it has arrived, they will work out a price for the vehicle. So far, I have not given the dealership a single penny. Did you get a discount? What are you paying for yours?

Do we know that dealers are getting 'trunk' money? And if so, how much? Thx
What do you think a 'fair' discount off MSRP for a 2024 GT 55?

One also has to wonder why the GT55 with 6400 miles currently listed for $119,787 in Georgia has had tire(s) replaced and oil changed twice.
