joining the forum. New GTS!
Hey guys
just picked up my AMG GTS last night, wanted to join in. I'm looking to install some HREs or Vorsteiner wheels and wrapping it! Should be a 2-3 month timeline.
Most of the options were trims. No dynamic package, still really aggressive suspension and I like it. Sounds beautiful.

Great looking! I see you got it at Calabasas Mercedes. I have noticed that a number of us are from Southern California - at one end or another. Sometime it would be nice to arrange a Saturday or Sunday get together and have a drive - perhaps in the Spring.

So I havent stopped driving the GTS since I got it. I went in the i8 today and it's definitely night and day. The i8 feels a lot softer and...not-aggressive. I love this GTS! haha
Anyway, hopefully I'll get to take better pictures. And I'll keep you guys updated on anything I do to the GTS.

I hate the skinny tires also. The i8 has a soft comfortable ride but Im not a big fan of the seats...not long/deep enough on the legs. Also the steering and brakes to me is too overreactive so I tend to find myself swerving sometimes when cruising. It is also pretty quick and I only spend about $20 on gas every week and a half.

It should be around 4000-4500 to wrap it which is the typical cost based on my experience. I was going to actually ask the community which color:
- Satin Black, Bronze 20/21 Wheels
- Satin Silver (possibly with racing stripes), Black 20/21 Wheels
- Satin Pearl, Black 20/21 Wheels
if you guys can vote in that would make my decision so much easier haha

The magno silver benz had was the best paint imo so i was leaning towards satin grey. Just concerned about satin black not showing the curves enough but I know black/bronze would be a killer combo! ill see what others vote in

Congrats on the GTS purchase! Sell that i8 before you lose more money on it
