GT3RS should maintain value better than a spider. I agree though, every man should own at least one Ferrari in their life. Why not enjoy both?

Vic, I love this thing can’t believe the sounds of this thing. Hate to say it not missing the RS, but I know I can get a .2 RS. F car was a smoking deal zero out of pocket for the RS and got cash back. (: |

Joining the E63 AMG S team soon. Pulled the trigger on a black base model here in Brazil (Brazilian base model comes standard with most of the options like night package, premium package, acoustic comfort package, and 3 zone package, it just misses multicontour seats (US$ 9.000 option), soft close doors (US$ 2000 option LOL) or performance seats, rear shade and seat heating (can not option any of these two), carbon ceramics (US$ 30.000 option hahaha) and 3D Sound (another US$30.000 option)). Now I have to wait a month or so until it comes (it is a dealer car) although if I ordered one I would have to wait 7 months. AMG really does not give a shit about Brazilian buyers, since we can not order for half of the options (only black leather seats and carbon fibre interior), the option prices are ridiculous and worst yet, the base price for a dealer car is US$ 200.000 (with negotiation), but if you order the base price is US$ 224.000. Besides the extra price, if you order for options we have to wait until death to get the car.
All dealer cars are Obsidian black, with black leather and standard 20in wheels. I wanted a Seletine Magno Grey with the 20in matte black wheel, multi contour seats and soft close doors (besides the rear seat shit) but I couldn't be bothered to pay US$ 255.000 for the car and wait for 7 months. I am definitely a very happy camper even with a base model dealer car. I just love this car, I can't stop thinking about it even though I love my M6 GC. Let's just hope the ownership experience is as good as my first contact with the car was. Last edited by CarlosM4; 12-02-2017 at 07:50 AM.. Reason: Messes up the US$ to Reais conversion |

I have the acoustic package and kinda wish I didnt. It tends to isolate a little bit of the exhaust noise- not alot but just a bit. Last night my lady friend was rev'ing it while I was outside of the car so I could hear the exhaust. Wow this thing is crazy loud with barks and pops. I guess at VIR under the Lightning Lap test it was the loudest car at WOT.

The sheer pleasure of driving this car, made me ignore all these little niggles. By the way, like you mentioned the exhaust on the E63 is the loudest among all 4.0TT AMGs. It is obscene and ridiculous that they fitted such a loud exhaust on an executive saloon. It made everyone deaf on the dealership yesterday.This is good for us car enthusiasts though our neighbours probably hate us hahhaha. I am trying to schedule for a test-drive here to get a feel for the car on normal roads and conditions (since Brazilian roads are worse than the moon soil to ride on), but AMG has a ridiculous policy of not allowing test-drives here. But frankly I am happy that will be able to get my E 63 and enjoy it everyday all day. This car is just an awesome daily driver, awesome build quality, incredible grip and performance, and great comfort. What more can you want from a car? It made my M6 GC feel bland, a bit sluggish, boring and old. And the M6 is still 3 cuts above of pretty much everything I owned before (M5 F10, CLS 63, W212 E 63, W204 C 63, M3 E90).

2 F10 M5's F13 M6 2012 CLS63 2012 E63 Estate 2012 C63 Black Series (still have) 2009 E92 M3 and I agree its that much better. Granted it is almost 2018 and cars should be better but I have a good recollection of the cars I listed above when I got them and how they compared to their competition at the time. This car is the machine of machines. I really wonder how BMW will deliver with the F90 M5?

Coincidentally, while in NY for work earlier today, I saw an E63S AMG in a parking garage and have to say I was really impressed by the styling of the car and overall looks. It was the exact Edition1 color that Vic55 just picked up.
Not sure if it’s that I’m on my 2nd F10 M5 or that I’m simply not all that inspired by the new F90 but after seeing it in person I’m leaning towards MB; this may obviously change once I see an F90 in person. First world problems ..

I have a motto when you run out of garage space you have too many cars. RS deserves a lot of track time not like the Spider. I enjoyed the RS, but the Spider is a fun car to drive casually. I can always get and RS, but you can’t always get a 458 V8 redline 9k RPM. Don’t buy cars for what they might be worth(:

FYI the E63S and the F90 are both coming in around 126-127mph stock traps. The gains in the tune are very conservative or 70hp/70tq which puts that one test right at 130 mph. The difference will be if the F90 will even have a readily available tune?
