How does the GT3 compare to the E63 for launch and acceleration? I'm assuming that it's not comparable in the curves of course.

That's a tough question... I'd think the Merc would take it off the line as the all wheel drive and the crazy torque. The gt3 seems to just keep going and going with the crazy 9k right redline... Both amazing cars to drive

It might be because of the OEM look on the RS. We could fix that quickly with some aftermarket performance wheels

I personally think the OEM wheels are absolutely perfect for the car, Only after market part on the car is a Shark Werks Muffler bypass

That must sound amazing. Any video clips of it? We have a customer who paired that with the Fabspeed headers and the sound was the loudest I've ever heard an NA 991 be.
