Arrow I am now officially a proud owner of the AMG GTS!

Greetings to the entire community from Greece!

It is now official and I am now a proud owner of the AMG GTS with 645hp and 812Tq! You will notice, that after delivery I made a quick stop outside a BMW dealer to troll them a bit.

I had to make a choice between two candidates and this one finally caught my eye with Ceramic Brakes, Panorama roof and an interior color that I really like. The extra power and torque was a nice additional touch!

PS: I think it needs a drop?

More power

Just add a little more ponies, DME tuning or EuroCharged are the people to go with. Others can recommend otherwise ...

Interested, show me some photos. Do you have them on yours? How is the handling compared to stock?

Mine has already some ponies, about 645hp. How much more?

The worst aspect of my car IMO was the stiff springs that also made car sit high. Threw Renntech coilovers on and the ride was vastly improved and didn’t bounce anymore. And car felt tighter in turns, especially in rear. Whatever you do, get coilovers that are adjustable, as it took me a few times to find that sweet spot for me.

Car was lower, I raised it up a bit in rear as I only have 19s in rear.

From your previous post I thought you had only Renntech springs on. By the way, is the stock suspension adjustable by height? I understand that the stiffness is adjustable, but I am not aware yet if you can adjust their height.

Yes all I have is Renntech Springs, ride height is adjustable less than 2 inches. You can’t adjust the stock suspension height. And the electronic adjustability is in the shock valving not spring stiffness.
