AMG GT Black Series Full Review + Best GT Exhaust System!
Today is the Mega Review of the #MercedesAMG GT Black Series! i’ll share with you my 3 year experience of living with my #AMGGT Black, and how I fixed that exhaust to make it one of the most motorsport sounding AMGs ever, and how you can do the same to any AMG GT!
We will also go over the full history of #AMG Black Series, starting from the CLK DTM, to the first black in the SLK 55 Black. And then the better known cars, CLK Black, C63 Black, SL65 and the SLS!
Despite of the success of some of these later cars, none of them broke records or really out-and-out dominated their class in any concrete real world metric. But they all certainly stand out vs rivals as the most desirable of their time in terms of pure emotion.
The GT black is the complete opposite of this formula. It’s achieved the accolades, but does it with far less emotion.
The Black is a whole new beast vs the GT R, in every way. It has a wider body than the R, with a full Carbon bonnet, front wings, a crazy carbon boot, and the biggest wing in AMGs history. Despite this, it’s 35KG lighter than the GT R.
The rear wing is insane, along with its Active element it provides Maximum downforce of 400kg at 155mph, or 800kg at vmax!!
But the big change vs other GTs is the engine. The power plan is still related to the GT R engine, the code M178 BS uses the same numbers albeit with Black Series Designation. But it truly is all new.
Instead of a cross plane crank shaft, we have a flat plane one, thus making the engine more responsive. But it does fire two pistons at the same time, hence the issue with a 4 cylinder like sound! This plus other changes allows it to make 730BHP, 800NM, 0-60 of 3.1 seconds!
Gearbox is a super development. Fastest shift times of any amg in history too. The Mount is made of coiled carbon fibre - and we will take a look at this and all the other the other chassis changes to the car in the video.
Finally, the thin wall steel Exhaust system. The most disappointing bit, so I’ll show you what it used to sound like, and what it now sounds like thanks to GAD tuning and Supersprint!
After this, I’ll go on a full drive to review the car, which we’ve never done on the channel!

Whata journey thank you for your kind words and what an epic machine
-
Sounds so much better with the new exhaust, much more aggressive. Reminds me of the 720S, sounds bit flat on video, but in person it's a completely different story.
-
Fucking amazing car.. this is why AMG is my favorite when it comes to in house tuners.. they always push the envelope. They need to get back to making there lower entry cars more crazy because as an AMG fan i have to say BMW M is giving them a run for their money.. I still will choose the Mercedes any day though!!!...
-
The best AMG ever
-
A Dragon gargling some blood or something... 🔥
-
1040Nm of torque from a 4L V8 ?? I really do wonder what the M279 V12 could manage with a tune. That engine has more torque than galaxies.
-
Peak Interior. It’s just sad what we have nowadays…….
-
Great review, you've knocked it out of the park with this one and as for that exhaust the smiles said it all🎉
-
Anytime I ever think about upgrading my AMG GT R for the Black Series I just listen to that exhaust and forget about it. Well that and the fact that I can't afford it haha.
-
Phenomenal breakdown Raz and I'm super happy that the GT Black Series is like a whole new car now for you.
-

-

-
I actually don't mind the Stock car i like the sound, from inside it kinda sounds like a GT3 race car but one thats refined for the road
-
Your channel is incredible. Well done.
-
Fantastic video. Those special effects are the best there is. An incredible car 🖤
-

-
Your editing is so good. Loved the special effects. Such a sick car.
-
