The GTS is the second car produced by Mercedes specialist performance division after the
 2010 2014 SLS Supercar.
A lot of engineering from the SLS. which cost almost half a million dollars, carries over into the GT.It’s more compact , through, much more affordable and if anything ; the design is even more  appealing . There’s something of the classic sports car about its look , with a long bonnet and a sweetly rounded  rear .
The GT S costs $295.00 A launch special .Edition1. Priced at $314.900 adds a fetching black body kit and carbon-fiber roof .
About 90 per cent of the car’s space frame structure is aluminum while magnesium has been used for  forward  components including the bonnet .
As in the SLS. the engine is mounted as near to the center of car as possible while the gearbox-a seven-speed dual-clutch nit- is at rear axle, with an electronic locking differential . The result is a 1570kg kerb weight for the S model that comes to Australia . with 53 per cent over the rear axle 
and a low  centre of gravity . Porsche’s  911 Turbo S, the heaviest of the 911 coupes, weight 1605kg.
As well as being suitably svelte, the GT also has impeccable chassis credentials with double-wishbone suspension and a limited slip differential, while electronically controlled dampers offer comfort, sport-plus  and race modes.
The S benefits from tighter springs and dampers than the standard GT  (which we’re not getting at this stage) and active engine and transmission mounts, similar to those used in some Porsche 911 models . The SLS was powered by naturally aspirated v8 displacing 6.2 litres, but AMG has since downsized to meet emissions targets and adopted turbochargers to compensate for smaller displacement. The GT debuts the second generation of these turbo units with its 4.0-litre v8 . This will gradually be rolled out across the AMG line-up. It has dry-sump lubrication and the twin turbochargers are located inside the engine’s V, close to the intakes, to minimize turbo lag. It delivers its power-the S develops #&%kW at 6250rpm-in various states of urgency. Depending on the drive train  map  you have selected .There’s  excellent traction off the line and the throttle response seems almost immediate.  The GT S is quick, blazing to 100m/h in 3.8 seconds-a couple of tenths faster than a  911 for the same money. Its top speed of 310m/h has a slight edge too. 

The engine makes the  as right noises, although it’s nowhere near as loud or  as raucous as the old 6.2-litre atmo banger. A switchable performance exhaust means the driver can make the most of what’s available and turn up the volume.

The cabin feels every bit te money and wraps the driver snugly like a cockpit. You sit low, enveloped by the car and in tune with what the chassis is doing. Unlike the 911, there’s no rear seat.

Selecting D means an awkward reach back for the nuggety gearshift selector but even it in auto.
Steering is super-light but becomes meatier the more aggressive .

The car turns into corners intuitively and feels inherently balanced and composed over bumps.

Like the 911, which comes in two dozen varieties, the GT will spawn an entire family of variants that will almost certainly include a convertible and some with even more firepower under the bonnet. It has taken decades, but at last the 911  has a worthy rival.
