Hanging Tough: AMG GT S Versus GT-R Nismo



It’s the Germans versus the Japanese in an all-out battle for supercar domination. In the left corner you have the brilliant Mercedes AMG GT S, and in the right, the technically ridiculous Nissan GT-R Nismo.

In the first race, the GT-R misses the first shift and the AMG GT S takes the win, but just barely, because during the last few seconds the GT-R begins to claw back distance. In the second race, however, the GT-R makes a flawless start and easily walks past the AMG GT S.

Good showing by the GTS and your comments about it being easily walked in race 2 were off. If you have ever been behind the camera on a rolling race the lead car appears farther than it really is.

Here is a view from the Nismo

Wow, nismo packs a punch, not bad for a v6 older car. still think it looks over the top though. It is their best offering...wait for the AMG GTR ';.;'
