RENNtech Unveils the 1196 HP Limited Edition Mercedes-AMG GT63 4-Door Coupe RIIIx!

1.jpg


We are proud to announce the launch of our latest creation based on the Mercedes-AMG GT 63 RIIIx. With superior power and advanced performance tuning, the limited edition RIIIx is set to claim its place at the top among street-legal 4-door vehicles in the world.
The RIIIx is powered by the Mercedes-AMG twin-scroll M177 BiTurbo V8, producing equipped with RENNtech’s Stage II high-performance turbochargers that feature larger inducer and exducer wheels along with a special core assembly featuring reinforced axial bearings for less rolling resistance and zero lag.

To ensure the engine receives the necessary air flow and fuel supply, the GT63 RIIIx is fitted with an integrated carbon fiber air intake system with a 30% larger filter surface, and high-pressure fuel pumps. The exhaust system features RENNtech stainless-steel high-performance downpipes with free-flow 200 cell catalytic converters and upgraded performance mufflers produced specifically for the AMG GT63.

Thanks to RENNtech’s Transmission Control Unit (TCU) and Powertrain (CPC) upgrades, the RIIIx boasts lightning-fast acceleration, achieving 0-60 mph in 2.44 seconds and 0-100 mph in 5.5 seconds and a quarter-mile time under 10 seconds, the RIIIx was built to blow the all the doors off the competition.

Through an extensive series of tests on the Dynamometer, RENNtech Engineering revised ECU mapping for injection, ignition, and boost pressure control as well as real-world test drives on the road and at the track.

The peak output of 1196 HP and 927 LB-FT of torque is produced at 6,200 rpm on 100 octane fuel, and 964 HP and 846 LB-FT of torque on 93 octane fuel. The driver can easily switch between octane ratings using the Hand-Held Tuner, offering the option for maximum power and convenience for daily driving.

The RIIIx’s exterior carbon fiber aero package includes functional styling elements to produce more downforce for improved handling and stability at high speeds and the aesthetics of the GT63. These highly refined aero components were designed by RENNtech and are constructed in the USA using aerospace-grade pre-preg carbon fiber.

With the record braking power figures, RENNtech Engineering has once again demonstrated its commitment to innovation, performance, and design. For a lucky few, the RIIIx is an exceptional vehicle that combines Mercedes-AMG cutting-edge technology and engineering with unparalleled power, making it one of the fastest four-door vehicles on the market.

Incredible post, I'll have to comeback to it!
 
That RIIIX Renntech GT63S is incredible with all that power, but for a 1196HP car it should be faster than it is. It does look great, I like the bi colour paint work and stickers.
 

At low and medium speeds in Comfort mode, for example, you will notice occasional snatchiness from its gearbox and hysteresis in its low-speed throttle response (the hybrid system boosting strongly and suddenly as you tip into the power sometimes, but less so at others).

You will also notice quite a lot of high-frequency noise coming from the rear-mounted high-voltage electronics. Manifesting like a quiet and intermittent but nonetheless distracting high-pitched whining, it is unmistakably what an NVH engineer would describe as ‘noise’ rather than ‘sound’ – and certainly the sort of thing you would expect a luxury GT to filter out.
 
It’s more of a problem for Europeans than Americans. The latter have Cadillac, Ford and Dodge to turn towards for non-hybrid 6 and 8 cylinder cars.
Ford and Dodge have nothing to do with luxury car buyers and Cadillac is largely irrelevant beyond the Escalade. Totally irrelevant.

I'll be honest not exactly my usual fayre but I've been pushing myself to occasionally watch things like these and his channels taking off.🙂
 
He’s following the business model of Matt Armstrong, TGE, LFF and others.

1. Buy a wrecked or extremely high mileage car at 30-60% less than market value.
2. Repair or upgrade the car.
3. Raffle the on a competition website at £2-4 per ticket.
4. Enjoy raffle proceeds of 2-2.5x market value.

A little off topic, I ask you and whoever wants to answer, how are these raffle businesses of this type that you describe? are they good business?

It has been one of my lines of business for more than 25 years, Lotteries, games of chance in general, that's what I used to do/do when appropriate.
I have been studying this English business model for a year and a couple of those websites over there, also its US version and I would like to replicate it here in the other part of the planet, I think it has immense potential

Ok. I’ll break it down.

Why do car YouTubers raffle cars: You cannot rely on ad revenue alone. It can swing dramatically every month and puts immense pressure on you to produce lots and lots of videos.

Raffles cars is an interesting business idea because it turns youtubers into car dealers. HIGH margin dealers. Very high but with none of the cons.

Buy an unmarketable example of a desirable car for $25,000.
Add $2,000 worth of enhancements or work.

$27,000

Generate $80,000 from ticket proceeds.

$53,000 profit.

Compare that to $2-6k profit on a 3-5 year old car. Big difference.

However when you raffle a car you don’t need to:
-Have a showroom.
-Offer test drive.
-Warranty because the car is given away. Therefore consumer protection laws don’t apply. Furthermore, if you win a car with a $2 ticket, you don’t have many reasons to complain.

Perfect, thank you very much for the breakdown.
And are they successful? are they okay with the income for that?

Mine is more along the lines of BOTB since I'm not a youtuber (for now lol), but I did drive and produce a car show on TV.
How are those websites doing? from what I "see" on the internet, they seem to have been in the market for many years and to be very successful
