They both are beautiful in their own way. I'd personally go with the AMG GT-S, much more visually stunning on public roads.

Trust me, you didn't miss anything. Just watch the video and it's obvious which car is the more fun to drive and which one is all business. That's all you need to make up your mind.

Why do they always test these cars on a race track? They should test it in the real world, there's more to cars than just lap times. Considering that most people don't live on a race track i would say lap times are irrelevant. Just a quick survey, how many of you live at or near a race track?

And come on, everyone wants to see these cars at their best. It's dangerous to drive like this on a public road, so you would see them just driving boringly.

The new GT should be compared to the Jag F type r. much closer in style price point and beauty. porsches are the fastest cars but not as lust worthy as the F type and gt

Why was the AMG GT not compared to the standard 991 turbo, I think that would have been the better match up..

The Porsche will always be the safe choice for those who want the pinnacle of driving precision, but the GT is the one that is more fun and, he said it right in the video, the one that will keep you smiling every time you see it in your garage. I guess auto reviewers like these guys have a different definition of what fun is than the rest of us normal blokes who drive normal cars.

I'm glad autocar have done this properly and pitched the AMG against the rear wheel drive GTS instead of other channels with the 4wd GTS

Great video and two things about it; 1. How a car drives is way more important than a lap time 2. Trust this guys opinion more than Steves, pretty unbiased which is what you actually want

Really love new MB approach with C class and AMG GT. Beautiful, both exterior and interior.

Is it just more or did he say he wanted to see which one was faster but then they didn't show any timed laps?! Or are we 'just' supposed to assume the Merc won after they provided the stats. Also using a car nearer the same cost as the Merc probably would have given it a more balanced head to head.

I can actually feel the difference in character between the vehicles through the video. well done.

In the same way some people have a face for radio, Matt Prior has a voice for writing. Don't get me wrong, I appreciate him and Autocar for giving us this free content, but 900+ horsepower between the two of them, can we at least get a smile? I realize it's just another day on the job for him, but he's driving two of the most exciting cars on the road for an audience who (for the most part) will never get to even sit in one of these, some enthusiasm would be nice.

It honestly just comes down to personal preference

I love both,the problem is i only can only bought one of them.damn i cant focused on my job or my college and spending time looking at youtube comparison and coming back and forth to the showroom to sit on it,look at it and take picture of it. this is going to be the first brand new sports car that i ever bought so kinda big deal to me lol. since i was a kid i always wanted 911 911 911 911 but then came this beastly merc with beautiful ass...oh god!!! are you testing me for my determination to buy my childhood dream?!

the 991 GTS pdk does 0-100kph in 4.0 seconds. not 0-60mph in 4.4seconds... so the 991 is basically the same as the GT to 60mph. at least on paper.

I wish one of the car editors for once would just drive the car through the track for feedback, instead of drifting the whole time haha

Why not 911 turbo which starts at 120k, same as the GT??

Please balance the audio levels between external shots and commentary. And also give Matt a mic for the in-car camera so that his voice doesn't have to battle with the in-car engine noise.

Finally a relevant video

lap time comparison is missing otherwise nice video Matt is on the good way even at 4:56 is it a smile ( a small one ) :)

AMG-GTS looks massive in this colour!

5:21 is there the review text? I always thought they do it spontaneously.

Which is faster around the track?

I see so many Porsches that it has lost the strong appeal of luxury, uniqueness and fun it use to have. Porsche is like a Maserati from a consumer stand point. Everyone has one. I see an average of 12 Porsches a day. And 1 AMG GT a month.

+autocar what color is the amg gts?

Only GTS? Autoexpress had the turbo against the Mercedes...Autocar, your standards are slipping

The Porsche is the real drivers car. It is also the benchmark that other manufacturers are trying to catch up to. I drove everything and nothing comes close to a Porsche sports car for every day use and track fun, not to mention lower cost of maintenance and lower sticker price. From Dodge SRT salesman with Porsche tattooed on his heart

The 991 Turbo is much closer in therm of power, torque and price. And it also has turbo. But not the same name ???

Amg is just gorgeous!

good quality video!

The Merc look soooo good in that color.

OMG this reviewer sounds like David Brent from the office! Where do they find these people!? No wonder Clarkson is so loved.

So the AMG lost against the 4WD Carrera GTS (AutoExpress), the 911 Turbo (EVO) and now against the 2WD Carrera GTS. Yes, the AMG is a good car, but the Porsche is better... END OF STORY.

***** Oh not only in Britain. I'm sure MotorTrend will conduct this test as well and the Porsche would win again. Besides Porsche doesn't care to win in Germany. Most of their sales are to the US. Those german magazines know how much people love Porsche, so now they want the US market grow to like the AMG to up sales for Mercedes as well. The British and US magazines are unbiased because they are foreign. Its like the Japanese testing the 911 vs GT-R. OBVIOUSLY they would say the GT-R is better.

It doesn't look like tail happier as sls black did. Its movements like.. i don't know what to say.

is the gts... c2 or c4??

The 911 wins just because of the sound it makes. The AMG makes noise, it's not as lyrical as the 911.

The pricing is so strange, there's a 20,000 GBP difference in price over there, yet over here the prices for a GT S and 991 GTS are only separated by 15.000 USD, and once you option up both cars they're within about 5,000 of each other.

Where you at, Steve?

I love Porsches but with the depreciation on the amg makes it a no-brainer for me. Getting a low milage 2019 for less than $70,000

i thought u wanted to see which is quicker..where are the lap times

Gtr is my favorite and this is my second favorite

Suggestion: when the car is making lots of beautiful noise or screeching around the track, perhaps you should try not talking as we cannot hear what you have to say.... I am interested but half the time, I just heard a jumble of sounds. Great cars!

both are good cars! :)

The race track is for comparison purposes. In any case, what pisses me off is that autocar goes to the trouble of running the cars at the track and they do not post times. Just their impressions. They say the 911 is the better drivers car. But what are the track times, that gives me the facts.

You guys put some great content but the videos are just too short.

I love the Mercedes... but it looks like it is impossible to get road head in!

yeaaaaaaaaaa, nice review

This guy is beyond hopeless.

No lap times?

You don't get it do you. A sports car (911 GTS) will always be more fun than a sporty grand tourer (GT). That's why. Lol argue all you want. You probably want cars based on 1. Looks 2. Specs and that's it.

What a power and torque difference between the two. And since I am a "driver", I prefer a manual transmission, not available in the MB. I love my 991.1 GTS (wink).

I'll take one of each...

Maybe I am 'old school' but I wouldn't buy a MB and expect all out performance, I have always thought of them as comfortable, very high class and yes in AMG trim very fast- In a straight line the MB is faster

People in the comment section talk about choosing a car like if they could afford one. Cars nowadays are so competitive and close to each other that the individual buying the car does not have to fit the car, he or she can find a car that fits him or her. All that matters is taste. It's like the iPhone and the Galaxy phones, they are pretty much identical in the real world but have different people chooses different phones because of their different taste, not because of the objective factor as which is the fastest on paper, which really doesn't show in the real world. If you can tell the difference between 3.6 or 3.7 seconds, I'll buy the car you want, any car. People argue with their subjective thoughts, which sound just logical in your head but completely stupid in someone else's head. If you guys can't afford one, doesn't have the chance to feel one, or to even see one then stop f*cking arguing as if you have and stop being to radical towards your opinion, it only makes you look like a stupid narrow-minded dumbass. Look at Lord Aleem, he got bunch of different cars and likes them all, more or less because of HIS TASTE, not for what the cars really are.

911 for life baby!

Just enjoy these cars for what they are.

They should have compared this Mercedes with the 911 Turbo

This might be actually the most byist review i have ever seen from the first minute you got in the amg i knew you loved rhe porshe better

I am a mercedes fanboy and i love merc as much as nothing but what they could add on the gts(😍) is a AWD and some more horsepower for example make it 583 hp instead of 503 that would help it exelerate(sorry for the english in this word) faster even on higher speeds and the AWD would help it kick of the lane keep that place. Yes it would make the car heavier but it would have more fiction(is that right?) and power.So with it's great aerodynamics a AWD and 583bhp it will be a lot faster even if it is heavier

Don’t agree with this guy’s viewpoints - not sure how he likes the Porsche steering, which everyone else agreed was sh~t when the 991 was released, and how he felt non-existent lag in the AMG engine...

can't beat a porsche once you've owned one almost nothing seems good anymore. For 110 grand for the amy gts i would just spend the little extra to get a turbo which would run rings around the amg gts much better car
