GTR first 15 mile impressions









I got the car home today around 3 pm...waxed it myself and went out for a 15 mile drive ...

first impressions vs. 2016 GTS ... Rougher ride for sure (only tried comfort) ..but I like it ...that’s why I bought the car !

Only small worry....engine has a louder knocking sound at idle ...I think it goes away after driving a bit .. ..I first noticed it after starting the car again after stopping for a short errand ..... the knocking sound seems more noticeable from the interior (with windows closed) ... that trying to hear it with windows down...

Anybody noticed that different engine idling as compared to GTS ?

BTW Same if I compare it to recent C63s 2017...but not a fair comparison...different cabin ...

Other than that ...I love the meaner look , rougher ride ... definitely a track car feel

a few pics ... (taken before the waxing ...straight from dealer and back house )

Beautiful car. does it seem faster than your GTS? I'm sure you haven't had a chance to open it up yet.
