Re: GT AMG tests at the Ring

Wide car with very long hood. Something for the highway not for the challenging B roads and the mountains.

Again I diagree with you. 991 Turbo S is with 1880mm not too wide? What about Huracan, 458 or forthcoming R8(which is wider then AMG GT)? Even Macan is pretty wide and you priased its handling...
This is why my favourite is the narrow body (well compared to the others) Carrera S RWD.
The Macan I assessed as a SUV/small saloon, not as a B road king and sports car rival.
To repeat what I wrote few weeks ago-new AMG GT is marginally smaller then SLS AMG size wise(in lenght, it is almost as wide and hight is aslo almost the same).
The look might be very nice, but the proportions with the long hood relative to the driver don't help driving on narrow sweeping roads. That was my point. I would prefer a more compact design away from the 50s SL models.
