Super car Saturday Florida



Went to Supercar Saturday just outside Fort Lauderdale today, apart from 2 or 3 green GTR's and a solar beam yellow 2020 GTC I saw this.
Great show with plenty of cars.

So just browsing around and came across this few months old thread, got me curious... is AMG GT in general considered a super car? If not, what qualifies a sports car a "super car" in your eyes?

Interesting question. I don't know if there are any specific benchmarks that could qualify a supercar such as MSRP or horsepower. To me, it's just something you kinda feel. An AMG GT is not a supercar to me, though it is definitely special. Any Porsche is not a supercar to me, unless it's a 918 Spyder.

Supercars to me are Aventadors, McLarens, an Enzo, a Pagani, Bugatti, etc.

911 Turbos, Ferrari California, Lambo Huracan, AMG GTR just aren't at that level.

Imo the GT line are exotic sports cars, not supercars. MB just doesn't have the badge prestige to get it there.

Agreed, but they do stand out from the crowd a bit.

FYI I went in my (getting old now but still a keeper) Lambo.

They certainly stand out from the crowd, and garner tons of looks outside of exotic meets/shows.

That's a sexy Merci, and it looks like it's in one of my favorite colors, Balloon White.
