Mercedes S63 AMG and S65 AMG – the Video

  Mercedes S63 AMG and S65 AMG - the Video [ad#ad-1] We brought you news a few weeks ago from the Shanghai Motor Show, where Mercedes revealed their super-S Class models – the S63 Amg and S65 Amg. Well, not a company to do things by halves, especially when we’re talking about the top of the range S Class, Mercedes has released a promo film for the S Class AMG models – running to more than 20 minutes. As we told you last time, the S63 AMG and S65 AMG get the same facelift treatments as the rest of the range.

First Sight: Mercedes-AMG GT

“If I was to buy any sports car that wasn't a Mercedes, it'd be a Porsche 911,” says Mercedes' head of design, Gorden Wagener. “But when you see the two cars together, we think ours has the edge.” He's talking about the new Mercedes-AMG GT, a front-mid engined, two-seater sports car that's unashamedly aimed at higher-end 911s, and we've come to see it at Mercedes' Sindelfingen studio.  The GT replaces the larger SLS, and is seen by Wagener as the best example yet of his 'sensual purity' design philosophy: “The SLS is very much [he gestures] line, line with a surface in between. With the GT we started with the surface and worked to refine and reduce the number of lines.” Elements of the SLS's platform have been carried over, so the GT measures the same 1,939mm wide.

Video: Duel for the Crown: Ferrari F40 versus 599 GTB Fiorano

This recently released video from Ferrari shows that, while decades separate the cars, and their ethos are on opposite ends of the spectrum, the pure performance isn't so different--a fact that speaks highly of the F40.
