Anyone else pre ordered the new AMG GTR?

[GPH]

Did you guys see the opening of the Ch4 British Grand prix programme today with DC racing a green GT R around Silverstone with Mark Webber in a 911. Nice bit of product placement for Mercedes.

The car advertised at 240 K on auto trader has now been reduced to 199 k .

But you can ignore that - as it is not a physical car and given they are pre-selling something they don't have, they probably won't even get the car from MB.

Snapped this outside Brooklands yesterday. Was nice to see the GT C in the flesh.

Nice 5 star review of the GTR today in Autoexpress. I think it's a revamped review but who cares it reads well!

Interesting, Romans have advertised their new GTR at £184,950 today on Autotrader.

[Arsh-Naz]

What would be the original price of this car with all the options ?

Thanks to the driver of the green AMG GT R for a most comical sprint along the A4 this morning. From the R8 with the grin behind you.

The configurator is available online

My guess would be £150k

Quick question to those that have been in one, whats the interior space /legoom & headroom like in these cars?..at 6'5" with a 36" inside leg, thought Id ask before considering one first off!
fit fine in Ferrari 458/488 & Porsche GT3 etc, but lambo's are a no no,Audi R8 a bit tight too...so how does the AMG GT compare ?
thanks

I am surprised that this hasn't sold as yet bearing in mind the waiting list and no guarantee those on the waiting list will get one. The price doesn't look that it is much of a premium once the options have been factored in !

Sold over the weekend.

Did anyone else notice a black GTR flash up for sale recently in the classifieds?

It was a private sale and asking price was 200k, anyone know if it sold?

Nice to see Chris Harris very impressed with the AMG GTR in this test vs the GT3 RS & BMW M4 GTS

First time on track with the GTR yesterday, really pleased with it!

Anyone else enjoying theirs yet?

[f1ten]

Drive one 2 weeks ago and was well impressed with the noise and go although it's not in the league of a 458 from my perspective. But it's a genuine different option from an r8 and 911. Well done mercedes as the gearbox was a massive step up from even a 2 year old sl63

Interesting comment, its much faster and better screwed together than a 458. Lacks the drama I guess?

[FA57EST]

I'm enjoying mine

Loving the insane exhaust note & agreed the gearbox is impressive. Not as good as my 488 gearbox but nevertheless it's a great piece of kit. I like the 4 wheel steer too.

The car gets a lot of attention when out & about. Yes well done Mercedes on producing a fine machine!
