Its very hard to compete with porsche if you’re going after the enthusiast market. And then when you get to 150-200k you had the Audi R8 and GT3 to compete with. unless you’re a die hard mercedes fan, you’d pick the GT3 or R8 over the equivalent AMG GTR.
It is interesting they kept the AMG GT around and are now marketing it as a lc500 or 8 series competitor. i can’t imagine those cars have high profit margins for the company. they hardly sell any.
