2019 GTR AMG - Looking to buy
I am looking to buy a 2019 GTR AMG and the MB dealer said that they upgraded the Turbo dump pipes and added a stage 2 tune to the car, they claim that it is still covered by MB full warranty, can this be true?
They claim that it is similar to a Renntec or Brabus tune.
..... normally if a car is modified, the manufacturer voids all warranty!
Please advise.

The MB dealer will probably honor the warranty if something fails in the engine, however I would think only at that specific dealer, it seems more of a "we sold you the car, we will look the other way". If they were to deny coverage, MB USA would not side with you.

Does MB have an official warranty verification department number, that i may call to receive clarification?

The first thing to do is to find out when the factory warranty expires. This car is 4 model years old and the factory warranty is for 4 years.
Factory warrantys will be voided if modifications are made. If you call to check you run the risk of having the car put on the void list.
