Latest Update
AMG GT should arrive in U.S in the fall with a base price of $99K.

I was expecting the base to be $110K so this is good news.

I would love for the GT to be that low but I am not buying it.
The GTS is selling well and other models usually have about a 10K to 15K difference between an S and a non S. The only difference between both is the tune, an upgraded stereo, adjustable suspension and keyless go.

Yeah I'm hoping he's right on the low base price. I've seen crazier Pricing, and this will be the car that competes $$ wise with 911.

March DOG claimed still maintained an early summer arrival ...

WOW $99K base price seems like its about within $10K of the EditionONE C63S coupe. Now this is interesting as a mildly option car would be around under $110K. Please give input as far as GT coupe or Edition ONE C63s coupe! thanks in advance

Not to sound selfish, but if the base is under $100k, I might regret buying this car for the exclusivity factor over say a Viper.

I mean a Viper looks just as good, is faster, and has a decent interior but not quite as nice.

So yes a big part of my purchase decision was that I know 8 people with a new Viper and 0 with a GTS.

Have you driven a Viper? The clutch is no fun to stay PC, it rides harsh and does not sound great.
It's a driver's race between both when the GTS is tuned.

I don't think the clutch or ride are bad at all on the new Gen V Vipers. They are way more refined than previous generations. In fact, I wish they were rougher. Both the clutch and ride are way way smoother than my 997.2 GT3.

Actually, I guarantee you the AMG GTS rides worse over bumps than the new Viper.

I will give you that Vipers sound like ****. The GTS sounds amazing.

You can also tune/mod a Viper. I love my GTS. I'm just saying that if it wasn't as rare...

My OCD would not allow me to put a deposit on a car I do not know the price so it is not my car. This is driving me nuts.
Dealer has one coming in June and one in July. The options and colors are locked.
I need to sell my car first...
