There will never be another MB car like the GT in terms of non-hybrid RWD V8. Plus there is a shift to mid-engined cars lately, with the Corvette. The only other long nosed cars for sale are the Ferrari Roma and the F-type Jag - both of which are in a different price category.




Easy solution here... just get both!

I'd second that one. We have a C43 sedan as our daily driver. I recently acquired a slightly used GTR Pro ... and sold the C63 S in favor of keeping the C43 as the daily driver. If you live in an area that gets any amount of winter-type weather, the all-wheel drive on the C43 will be appreciated.

My wife also doesn't care for the GTR as she finds the seats too low and uncomfortable, the ride to harsh and the noise level too high (you know, she doesn't care for the fun stuff!). She does prefer driving the GTR over the C63 S, however ... she agrees that the GTR "hardly wants to kill you at all, which was never the case the the C63 S!"

Where's the fun in that? I look at it a different way. The C wants to play while the GT R wants to do the fastest line around a track possible with no drifting or sliding. Great for the track, but not as playful. The GT S on the other hand wants to play, too. The GT R was just way too planted for me.

Oh I agree, but my wife is the main "daily driver" so ...
