The car Isn't stock it's running a development renntech tune and went 11.2 @ 128 later. Look the owner up on Instagram username _la_mercedes_
Was expecting more from a tuned car hopefully they turn up the boost higher

11.2 is still a great number. Remember the car starts with only 510hp versus the 5.5liter AMGs that have more hp and AWD.
I wish it had 650hp stock ala Z06/Viper

What a Drag: The Mercedes-AMG GT S Hits the Strip



Tuners, such as Weistec and Renntech, think high-end sports cars, including the 503-horsepower 2016 Mercedes-AMG GT S, can be even more exhilarating than they already are.

I am really torn. lol. I love the GT, MB quality and service overall. The numbers stock are super promising and it appears MB underrated the engine (maybe not to overshadow the SLS and the fact that the GT is 50% cheaper). The gullwing doors alone must be like $15K.
However money talks and with the extra 50K, it buys a used X6M for the better half.
Hope to see you soon.
