lexus and toyota and ducati, suzuki now
new GTX versus used renentech GTS

Excuse my ignorance but as I have never owned a MB before and am not familiar with many of the models and mods that owners do to them.

I see reference to a Renentach mod that owners do to their GTS models. Is that they way to go over waiting for a used GTX or over paying for a new GTX? Are the bodies the same? Both roadster coupes.

How does the performance and weight compare to the two as well as what does the GTX have that the GTS renentech does not?

Are certified renenteach GTS models available at MB dealers to buy? If so, what is a one or two year.
Thanks
spotswood

Renntech is just an aftermarket provider for Mercedes Benz Cars. The body and wieght of the car are the same, just the parts or the engine tune you are buying from Renntech will be different.
The Renntech tuned car is more powerful than any GT models currently offered by Mercedes.
Looks like English is not your first language so I will just say that as a general rule, MB USA will not warrant a powertrain failure if the car has been modified by a tuner.

look up renntech on the internet.
They do performance upgrades, they dont rebuild cars.
Some MB dealers sell renntech upgrades, some dont.
