Hoping to get into a GT-S this year

hi guys,

I had a E55 AMG for years and loved it. Been modifying and driving an FBO 2014 GTR for the last two years, great car, fast as hell, but not very comfortable, I only really enjoy it in the mountains or on an onramp, around town it makes my teeth chatter.





I did the Porsche experience in Atlanta with a 911 Turbo S and a GT3, nice cars, especially the GT3, but the 911 didn't feel like it had a soul to me. I drove a GT-S at speed Vegas and loved it.

I just put the GTR up for sale, and will then look for a nice grey or black GT-S. I'd love a GT-C but too much $$ right now.

looking forward to getting into a new platform, doing mods (I always do) and learning from you guys. I have a 2 post lift and am handy with a wrench, so time to start a new project...

I think I do have a disease though, I already bought the GT-s Euro Charged tune (they provided the tune for my E55 and have great customer service) since they have 15% off for black Friday

Welcome fellow Atlantan.

Good luck with your search. I’m in Brookhaven if I can be of assistance.

Great car, you will love the heck out of driving it. Rare to see one out on the roads, so makes it even better!
Good luck in your search!

Another Atlantan here. Can't wait to see what you pick up. Can't go wrong with any GT variant. I've gotta wait on the widebody prices to come down a little more though. The GTC is just so sexy. Once kids are out of college I think the timing will be just right for me.

Post up some pics when you pickup your new ride.

Same here, getting my GTS today, I had a GTC in mind but after looking at the difference in cost and depreciation over the next few years, I will wait as well.

yeah, love the GT-C wide body, just can't justify the price yet . GTR is going on Autotrader and e-bay this week, hopefully have a sale before Christmas...

Best choice you'll ever make getting a gts , traded my 15 z06 -z07 for it and never looked back. Good luck selling gtr tho , only possibility after weeks of low ballers , fake interest is to trade in..
