GTS 4.0 Review - Why Bigger Engines are Returning to Porsche!!
Yes Porsche are going back to larger displacement engines!! But why the sudden change of heart? Did the sales plummet, have they come to their senses? Today I’ll talk briefly about why every model at #Porsche is gaining a larger displacement engine, and then we will explore how the change to the Porsche 718 Boxster 4.0 #GTS has transformed the car!
Frank steffen walliser is the head of 718 and 992 model lines, and he has said that due to Euro 7 regs coming in 2026, small engine displacement producing big power will no longer be allowed. Hence even the 911 will have to increase its displacement at that time: a model range he says will always be ICE.
He also said, there was a drop in sales for the 2.5 flat 4 version of the 718 In markets like the UK, Germany and the USA. But a huge surge in China where tax breaks allow the wealthy to apparently buy Boxsters for females... oh dear!
More importantly, the Naturally aspirated 4.0 returns to the GTS models in the 718. Its not some retuned one, but is instead exactly the same unit. The rev limit has been lowered to 7,800 rpm, reducing maximum power to 395bhp (19bhp less than the GT4 and 30 more than the old GTS) and it exhales through the same twin exit exhaust system!That’s also the main distinctive visual change, and you’ll get to hear the exhaust in the video.
We also now have a PDK which gets 9 NM more torque, at 430NM and thus the GTS is faster in 0-60 by 0.5 of a second than the GT4!
Even the six-speed manual gearbox is the same as the GT4,
So let’s see what this Boxster “Gran Turismo Sport” can do when we explore:
- Why Porsche are moving to larger engines
- Market failure of 4 pot 718
- China’s influence on Porsche
- Euro 7 emissions standards - no more small powerful engines
- GTS 4.0 Natural Engine
- GTS 4.0 exhaust system
- Visual changes to GTS
- GTS 4.0 PDK
- GTS 4.0 Exhaust sound
- Full performance review
- Engine sound
- PDK performance
- Conclusion

Is AMG’s GLE 53 the Best 7 Seater Daily? Full Review
7 Seat AMG!! Welcome back to RBR and first a huge thanks to Piloti for sponsoring us after years of me wearing their shoes on the channel for no reason but passion!! Check out the newly launched Legacy S Pagani shoes below, and I got you an additional 15% off if you use our code 'RBR15' !!
Piloti.com - https://bit.ly/2V9FCiV (use code RBR15)
So now to one of the most popular #MercedesAMG’s on the channel: the new GLE 53 4matic+ with 7 Seat option! We have never reviewed the 7 Seater GLE, its a pretty great option vs the GLB and GLS in MB’s Line up, and offers more room than the X5 equivalent. We also haven’t driven the UK spec version: it’s a car that doesn’t have the “Dynamic Plus Pack” option that Europe does, with upgraded steering wheel, bigger red brakes and other changes. So it will be interesting to see how this stacks up vs the “top” EU version.
The formula is the typical 53 AMG one, with the in-line 6 turbo AMG Engine with Hybrid EQ boost. We have 435BHP 520nm on tap, with a EQ hybrid boost of a further 22BHP and 250nm: allowing for a 0-60 of 5.2 seconds. We also have a fully variable power in the AMG 4matic+ all wheel drive system.
A big bonus with the GLE 53, is how it really looks like a full 63 version, with the ENTIRETY of the car sharing cues with the flagship GLE63S. To see how much they match, I’ll return to Affalterbach to check out the GLE63S as well as hear the #AMG performance exhaust of that car!! The V8 exhaust vs the Inline 6 is a pretty interesting battle!
But is the 435bhp enough? Is there room for a GLE63S, and is this the best 7 seat AMG? In this review I explore:
- GLE 53 basics
- The GLE 53 vs GLE63S
- Exterior design
- The New GLE63S
- GLE63S Exhaust Sound and revs
- GLE 53 Exhaust sound and revs
- GLE 53 UK Interior
- Full performance review
- Sound of the 53 AMG performance exhaust
- Driving dynamics
- Comfort driving
- Augmented reality navigation
- Conclusion

2021 S-Class Maybach V12! New Mercedes Flagship first look!
Our Maybach video is sponsored by SimpliSafe! Check out their holiday sale by visitinghttp://simplisafe.com/removebeforerace. SimpliSafe is award-winning home security that keeps your home safe around the clock. It’s really reliable, easy to use, and there are no contracts guys. 👍🏽
Unsurprisingly we’ve had a lot of new #MercedesBenz S Class content on the channel in the last few months, starting all the way from the Camo preview, new interior system, first look, and recent first drive. And in that last video, I mentioned how preped the design seemed to be for #mercedesmaybach, and I even rendered my guesstimate too. And lo and behold I was right! And today is your first look at it, I’ve got 3 different specifications to show, every change and a first look at the interior too! So let’s drive straight in to the next generation S Class #Maybach!
Some fun behind-the-scenes facts for you before I start. Of course it’s November 2020 and Europe and most of the world is in lockdown. So travel to Germany to review this car was not possible, luckily, Mercedes know i have my magical inter-dimensional ways to show their prototypes, so bringing their new Maybach here was no problem. ;)
Incase you don’t know, Maybach is the ultra hyper mega luxury trim for Mercedes Benz cars. Built to battle the likes of the new Rolls Royce Ghost and Phantom, Bentley’s flying spur and Mulsanne. You need to think of it in the same way AMG is: Unique exterior elements, bespoke interiors, unique engines, and specific technologies, but all geared towards ultimate luxury.
No better example of this than the new GLS 600 that we reviewed. Taking a standard GLS, and applying all of those Maybach DNA bits to it. But when we all think of Maybach, we think of the saloon. Though probably the less successful Maybach 57 and 62, but after the brand was renamed the 222 version has been selling like hotcakes in China, USA, Germany and Russia.
Now it’s back with the New S Class. Already even in it’s standard form it’s a level higher in terms of fit/finish and overall sharpness.
But with the new car, the design of the Maybach has taken a leap forward. So in this video we look at:
- Maybach the brand
- New Maybach Exterior design
- Unique bonnet and grille
- Longer rear door/ c pillar design
- Wheel options
- Two tone paintwork
- VS The New S Class long wheelbase
- Engines: V12 and v8
- Tech: Rear axle steering, 16 airbags, suspension options
- Interior details
- Active Driving Noise Compensation
- Steering wheel
- Driver’s display in the display mode Exclusive rose gold
- Rosé gold and amethyst ambience lighting
- The first-class rear seats
- The big decorative elements on the front seats for the Mercedes-Maybach
- New stitching style with large diamonds,
- “Waterfall” with Maybach glasses, in it
- Comfort rear doors - self opening
- Automatic rear seat-belts
- the adaptive rear seats lighting

New BMW M340i! All the BMW you'll ever need? Full Review!
New 3er!! 7 Generations of 3 Series, bring us to todays video! THE 3 SERIES has been the best selling BMW since it’s debut in 1975. It’s a car that introduced us to the idea of a sporty small sedan, and since has irrefutably led the way in this segment.

As much a cornerstone of the Ultimate Driving Machine as any other BMW, today we take a look back at this history of the 3 Series before having some fun in the first exciting M Powered version, the M340i Xdrive!
The car has grown, 3.3in longer, 0.6in wider but as it’s based on the CLAR platform, it’s 50% more ridged thanks to use of high strength steel and aluminium and 55kg lighter.
The grille is not as offensive as the new M3, I find it quite handsome. And the car is inundated with the hoffmeister kink tradition.
Like the M3 and M4, the 320d and M340i both available in either RWD or X-Drive! Giving customers choice.
My favourite part is the engine though: tStraight 6 B58 engine, already award winning, produced pros374 BHP, 500NM, 4.4 seconds. It’s attached to the 8 Speed Steptronic, which together with this epic engine makes for an awesome driving experience, wait to see on the driven. The X-Drive system is of course rear biased, and the car comes standard with the MSport differential. There is variable sports steering but… well I’ll get to that later.
But will the package be enough to battle the likes of the C43 and Audi S4? Today we explore:
- Origins in New Class and 02 Series w/ Wilhelm Hofmeister
- E21, E30, E36, E46, E90, F30,
- The new G20
- B58 engine
- BMW M changes within the M340i
- Exterior details of new 3 Series
- Other spec and wheels

2021 Turbo S Panamera! The Worlds Fastest Super Saloon!! Facelift Full Review
The Facelift Panamera Video is Sponsored by Ridge Wallet: https://www.ridge.com/RBR. Use Code “RBR ” for 10% off your order!
Welcome back to RBR, and to the facelift of the #Porsche Panamera! These days I have a huge fondness for anything with “Turbo S” on the back of it, and that’s the name that makes a return in this facelift of the Panamera, replacing the turbo before it.
Now though the facelift doesn’t show much change outward, the changes under the skin are big. So I’m going to show you every technical change made, then we’ll drive it to see if it deserves the turbo S namesake. Oh and there’s also a New 4S E #Hybrid to explore too! So let’s get started with the brand new Porsche Panamera!
First ever Porsche review on RBR was a Panamera, it was a Porsche #Panamera Turbo S E Hybrid Sport Turismo… and a name that huge betrayed the significant weight of the car too. With a V8 paired with an electric system, ol’ Ron made 670 BHP brute. But that weight of 2300 KG made it the most tame 670 BHP you’ll ever experience, with the power to weight ratio very close to the standard turbo. The turbo suffered too, being very close to the equally exciting GTS.
But now the Turbo S namesake returns, with optimised turbos with new turbine layout, entire crankshaft drive, including crankshaft, connecting rods, pistons, timing chain drive and torsional-vibration dampers.... has undergone fundamental optimisation!
It produces: 630 BHP, 0-60 in 3.1 secs
That’s 80BHP more and 50NM more than the previous Turbo! It allowed test driver Lars Kern to set the new official record in the “executive cars” class on the Nurburgring of 7:29.81 minutes.
Steering system and Suspension have also been updated along with the brakes, -“and new sports exhaust system: so much to explore here!
Then the new Panamera 4S E Hybrid, a model that accounts for 60% OF UK SALES! It has a V6 TT with electric engine with 560BHP. The Electric range is up by 30% thanks to a new battery too!
Today we explore:
- Old Panamera Turbo S E Hybrid
- New Facelift Panamera Turbo S
- New V8 engine changes
- Suspension, exhaust and steering changes
- Panamera 4S E Hybrid
- New facelift Sport Design front end
- The completely new front end of the Panamera Turbo S
- Interior Facelift updates on Turbo S
- Sports exhaust sound
- Panamera Turbo S Launch control
- Driving review
- Conclusion

2021 Mercedes S-Class First Drive! Untouchable Tech King!
Here is the new S580 V8 EQ Hybrid, of the w223 new 2021 #SClass generation! #MercedesBenz have invited us out to a very wet Stuttgart for a few hours only, to test the New S, so I’m going to focus fully on the drive experience, and the “being driven” experience too!
#Mercedes have been given a hard time on the interior design of the S Class, and rightly so! It’s controversial with the two huge screens. But as we will discover today, they are merely a form factor for the insanely advanced MBUX Operating System that helps revolutionise the experience of driving the new S-Class.
The advanced ambient lighting in the new S Class is my favourite feature. It’s not just about making the interior pretty anymore, now it interacts with you via the MBUC Voice Assistant, and like a sensor detects who is talking!! We ask it some random things and you’ll be surprised by the answers!
But is it S Class enough in the way you feel driving it and being driven in it?
Today we explore:
- Interior of the New S Class
- Advanced Ambient Lighting
- MBUX interior voice assistant
- The two big screens
- New S Class Driving Full Review
- Comfort driving
- Technology and Safety features
- Rear Axle steering
- Level 3 autonomous driving Mercedes
- Performance review
- Sitting in the back of the S Class
- MBUX Tablet
- Rear voice control
- Rear driving review
- Conclusion

900BHP Brabus Rocket GT!! New 4.5 V8 Beast Full Review!
New 4.5 litre AMG V8 powers another Rocket to #Brabus! Based on the brilliantAMG GT63 S, but this is a hyper car car with many changes to the base model.
The base GT63S is already the world’s fastest 4 seater on the ring, proving faster than an SLS Black Series. It has 640BHP, and a 0-60 of 3.2 seconds via its pure combustion 4.0 V8, as shared with the two door GT. That’s all in a near 2 tonne car!
But as we’ve seen with our past Brabus videos, they treat base #AMG models like AMG treat their Mercedes base models: yeah it’s nice, but let us get to work!! 😈
First they made the Brabus GT800. Using the B40S-800 pack, it produces 800BHP, 1000NM and 2.9 to 60, a real beast in its own right... But then they were like, nah this ain’t enough!
Enter the Rocket 900, 10 unit limited edition car, following a history of crazy rockets from Brabus’ past like the E V12 Brabus, the changes begin with the engine.
Bored from 4.0 to 4.4, it has a new Crankshaft, pistons, conrods, camshaft and Oil sprayers Then the typical Brabus changes of New turbo chargers and a New ECU.
The result? 900BHP, 1050NM and 0-60 - 2.8 seconds! VMax at 330km!
Insane! And so much has been changed on the body. There’s carbon, Kevlar, aluminium, a new Engine cover and much more to show you. And of course it has a Brabus exhaust system.
So let’s see how it performs on track! As we explore:
- Brabus Rocket Launch Control
- The AMG GT63S Base car
- Brabus GT800 GT63
- The Brabus Rocket 900
- The New Engine
- Performance figures
- Wide Body Design
- Brabus Rocket Exhaust Sound

- Performance review

2021 Porsche Taycan Turbo S! The Electric Sports Car!!
Electric! The word is kryptonite to petrolheads. It genuinely hurts us, not only our belief that it’s not the whole answer, but it’s alienating us from brands we have historically loved, many of whom almost guilt trip us into how dirty we are for loving the past! But let’s be fair, most #EV cars to date deserve the cold shoulder from our gear head community: Tesla, great performance and tech, but questionable build quality, and crucially: no soul. Mercedes EQC? It’s fat, design went full retard, drive and interior forgettable. Audi Etron - At least it looks like a normal Audi. Still, soulless.
Which brings us finally to #Porsche. Perhaps our last and best hope. After all, who better to task with providing driver soul, than the worlds premier sports car manufacturer. On paper it appears the same as the rest, but Porsche claim the #Taycan is soul electrified.
Porsche’s electric history starts with the Semper Vivus, or “Always Alive”, made by founder Ferdi Porsche. Though the true first standout foray was the 918 Spyder hyper car. A V8 Hybrid Hypercar that left no doubt in anyone’s mind Porsche’s aptitude for all things electric. This was quickly followed by a swift roll out of Hybrid across the model line up, creating things like the Panamera SE Turbo Hybrid!
Then in 2014 came the precursor, the Mission E! Gorgeous, like a space ship with its stormtrooper looks and suicide doors. Still distinctly Porsche, but with an air of Star Wars, rather than the blue highlighted nonsense BMW and Mercedes have put on their cars.
The interesting question for me was : Why a sports car first? Most manufacturers decided to go SUV first, Michael Mauer Porsche’s designed said:
“At times, we also considered launching into e-mobility with an SUV, but ultimately we made the decision to take this important step for Porsche with a sports car in order to make a clear statement. “
Amazing! This is the attitude we petrol-heads want to hear! Turbo S has 760BHP, 1050NM and to 60 in 2.6 seconds! Despite this, it has a range of 250 claimed.
The Design is like a Stretched 911 - Height and shape is low like a sports car, and we’ll discover by checking the taycan’s internals in the video how this is done via “foot garages”. We will also check out the full drive train, the two gear electrical motors and everything that makes the Taycan unique in class.
But the real question is, does it have Soul Electrified as Porsche claims? Today we explore:
- The History of Electric Porsches
- Semper Vivus and Lohner partnership
- 918 Spyder Hypercar
- Panamera Turbo S E Hybrid
- The Porsche Mission E Concept
- New Taycan Turbo S
- Design of Taycan vs 911
- Porsche systems: Porsche 4D Chassis Control, PASM, PDCC, Porsche torque vectoring plus, Rear Wheel steering
- Other versions: Taycan 4S, Taycan Turbo
- Performance of the Turbo S
- Electric Drive train
- Future: The Sports Turismo
- Taycan Interior review - single screen
- Taycan Turbo S launch control
- Taycan Sports Electric Sound
- Performance review
- Conclusion

The Best C63 S Mods! Louder Exhaust and Facelift Looks!
Making the Best #AMG ever better! Here are some simple but super effective upgrades to do on your prefacelift C63 S and facelift too!
A year ago I bought and restored my Edition 1 to it’s stock finish, and today it’s time to upgrade it in a few significant ways. And my purpose for sharing this is so you guys do the same to your cars! Firstly, the exterior looks with the facelift parts, secondly how to get the Edition 1 wheel finish done correctly, and finally making the #MercedesAMG stock exhaust louder for both facelift and pre facelift cars, with the world’s simplest to install but most effective mod from Renntech Europe. And then go on a drive to show you the results. Oh and there will be a teaser of my C Black Series being sprayed solar beam hidden in the video, look for it!
So as many facelift owners in the UK/Europe and USA discovered, the sound of our beloved #C63 had been neutered in the facelift by regulations imposed on AMG, so less pops and bangs and volume. So I did what any insane petrol head would do, and sold it to buy the older louder one!
But being a slightly older car, it needed some restoration. For example I got whole new seat and door card leather from AMG installed by Prototrim, and paint correction and PPF by dub customs. But the hardest bits to get right were the wheels, the painted finish is insanely hard to get back to 100% factory finish, and mine were looking tired and needed to be brought back to life. So I went to the best in the business at Kerbsafe! I warn you, this footage is extremely satisfying to watch, one of these videos on tiktok is at 6.3 million views!
Next, I would love to have the facelift’s aggressive parts on the outside, so I sourced these from AMG and went with the full Aerodynamic Carbon Package variant of the facelift. And it’s all happening at the MB World’s Bodyshop where my C Black is currently being resprayed.
AND the most important one: SOUND! Most modern cars have exhaust flaps controlled by the car’s ECU, and they’re usually only fully open at high speeds or rev ranges. BUT what if you could force it open all the time…? Enter Renntech Europe’s EVM Exhaust module!! Now the great thing is, this is available for both my pre facelift, and Facelift cars! And across the range on AMGs too.
Can’t wait to show you the sound of the facelift, and my pre-facelift on the road! So today we explore:
- AMG Edition 1 Wheel Refurbishment at Kerbsafe
- Upgrading to the Facelift C63 S Parts
- Carbon Aerodynamic Pack
- Renntech EVM Exhaust Valve Control Module
- Pre-Facelift Exhaust Sound
- Facelift Exhaust Sound
- Driving Exhaust Sound Review
- Conclusion

New GLA 35! AMG’s Cheapest SUV Reviewed!
Yes another AMG SUV! The “lifestyle” customer GLA 35. Thanks to Squarespace for sponsoring this video! For 10% off your first Squarespace website or domain, visit https://squarespace.com/removebeforerace and use my code "removebeforerace".
So #MercedesAMG likes making SUVs because they sell so many now. And the entry to that #AMG SUV family is now this the GLA 35 4Matic. The less powerful brother to the GLA45S we recently reviewed here:
https://youtu.be/BygGUkpLCLg
So first let’s see what the car brings to the table. The previous GLA 45 had 380BHP, 0-60 of 4.8 seconds from the 4 cylinder single turbo engine. The 4matic had a maximum of 50% power to the rear. And the car itself was an oddly less practical car than the A45. But despite this it was really quite good looking in full fat AMG form. With 1 million units sold, it’s no wonder AMG figured a cheaper model was in order. Our new 35 features the same format as the old 45, with a 2 cylinder 4 pot, the same 4 magic system, same brakes, but suspension and steering borrowed from the GLA45S of the new generation!!
It’s only 0.2secs behind the old GLA 45 to 60, and the engine produces 306BHP with 400NM of torque. But these are the same figures as the A35, which is a smaller lighter more agile hatchback. Same goes for the CLA 35! So will this car feel sluggish? And then there’s the matter of the 7 seat cooler looking GLB 35!
So today we explore:
- The original 35 - AMG A35
- The AMG CLA 35 / GLB 35 Comparison
- The original GLA45
- GLA 45 vs GLA35
- Interior review
- Launch control
- Full Performance Review
- Conclusion
Up next on on RBR is the GLA 35, Porsche Macan Turbo, Cayenne GTS, Taycan Turbo S, New E Class, E63S Sedan and MUCH MUCH More!! Subscribe to support us and see them first. :)

2021 M3 M-Performance Exhaust and Crazy Looking Parts!!
EXCLUSIVE TO RBR! The new M Performance parts for the new M3 and M4! Remember to check the full first look of both the new M3 and M4 Competition that I uploaded yesterday! Link down below! And take part in the giveaway for the M Town Passports!! Details at the end of the video
New M3 and M4 - https://youtu.be/Kxo5A1CPH7s
Just when you thought the grille alone was controversial enough, #BMWM go and release the new M Performance Parts for the interior and exterior of the new G80 M cars! These are available immediately from Market launch, unlike in the past, and they’re headlined by the new bizarre looking exhaust system! It looks batshit crazy, but luckily sounds a damn sight better than the standard one! The lightweight exhaust system had flap control, taking experience from motorsport, it weighs 5kg less and has optimised exhaust gas routing and thus better sound. The four titanium, ceramic-coated tailpipe trims are in a position we have never seen before, inside theMPerformance carbon rear diffuser.
There’s also an M Performance sports suspension available, developed and tuned on various different racetracks. It’s a coilover system with variable reduction of ride height of between five and twenty millimetres. In addition to increased dynamics, the lowering gives a sporty look too.
There are then a tonne of exterior parts, like the MPerformance carbon front mouths, the MPerformance carbon front splitter and the carbon MPerformance Aero Flicks. The side sees carbon details on the wing and huge side skirt trims make the car look wider. These continue at the rear, with the MPerformance carbon rear winglets again, a crazy MPerformance carbon rear wing. Wings becoming more and more common in sports sedans!
Highlight of the wheel range are the BMW M Performance cross-spoke forged wheel 1000M in Gold Bronze matt or Jet-Black matt with M Performance lettering, we have both on this show car on each side to show you!
Inside, the M Performance “Pro” steering wheel is features Alcantara, and much larger thumb rests for more grip. Theres also a blue centre marker in the 12 o’clock position and a hand stitched M seam finish. You also get matte carbon trim inside, and if you want them, carbon shift paddles.
STAY TILL THE END to see a render of the Isle of Man green M3 with these parts! It’ll give you a much better idea of what the car looks like with the parts. :)
Up next on on RBR is the M340i, Cayenne GTS, Taycan Turbo S and MUCH MUCH More!! Subscribe to support us and see them first. :)

New M3 and M4! Total failure or The Ultimate Victory?! First look
Welcome back to RBR guys! I’ve managed to sneak into the #BMWM secret area for unreleased cars, and I’ve found what we were looking for: the Brand new #M3 and #M4, the newest version of BMW M’s true flagship. Unlike your typical new models with minor increments in power, design, and tech: these two new beasts are come with HUGE changes for both M fans and us petrolheads.
Throughout this time you’ll see a gradual evolution of the design of the M3 family, that is, until today. We have to go over the aggressive new design, and I’ll do that with a look back at M3 and some BMW grille history, oh and stick around for a render of a normal grille! But the grille is a statement, one that signals M’s clear intent to bloody their rivals in this generation via the sheer choice of options available to those who love driving!
The new car has two power forms, one is the standard car in Rear wheel drive and 6 speed MANUAL! Standard car:
480 BHP, 0-60 4.2,Torque - 550NM
That’s more power than the f80 CS VERSIONS! The Competition adds more power and is available only as 8 Speed auto, but also with a RWD or Xdrive option:
510 BHP, 0-60 3.9, Torque - 650NM
The car also debuts the M Race track package with carbon buckets, carbon roof and ceramics reducing the weight by 25kg! And the new MDrive Professional WITH - MDrift Analyser, MLaptimer and MTraction Control with 10 stages of slip control! We also have two new colours, São Paulo yellow and Isle of Man green!
And I’m gonna cover it all today, so let’s explore the brand new versions of the M3 and M4 Competition!
Today we explore:
- Brief look of the history - 3.0 CSL, E30, E36, E46, E92 and F80
- History of the vertical BMW Grille - BMW 328, 503, 328 hommage, CSL Hommage
- Exterior design
- Choices! manual and XDrive + competition
- The Future (M3 Touring)
- Interior review and details
- Exhaust sound an start up
- Conclusion

2021 Mercedes S Class! Controversial Design?! Exterior / Interior First Look!
The King of Luxury, Tech and Safety is back! Thanks to Squarespace for sponsoring this video! For 10% off your first Squarespace website or domain, visit https://squarespace.com/removebeforerace and use my code "removebeforerace".
Welcome back to RBR guys! I’m a little late to new #SClass, but it’s great for you guys, because today I have the new S500 4Matic LWB out in the wild rather than a dead studio setting! Plus it’s in a new series production colour, Onyx black!
The continuous ancestry of the S-Class begins with the model 220 (W 187) of 1951. 1954 w180 Ponton, 1959 W111 The designation "S-Class" was officially introduced with the 116 series in 1972. We’re going to take a look at every generation in summary, till we get to the new model of the flagship #MercedesBenz!
The new car is slightly bigger in all directions, but extremely aerodynamic with a 0.22 C figure. Maybach inspiration is heavy on the design, straight from the Vision 6 concepts particularly in AMG line! The flush-mounted door handles (optional) are also a stand out change.
As with every S Class the 223 brings a host of technical and safety achievements. The first rear front facing airbags, new levels of autonomous driving, and the smartest car operating system ever in MBUX’s latest version. Acoustic foam and other measures taken in the body in white make this the quietest S Class ever, and the addition of Rear-axle steering means 2 meters saved on turning circle, making it the same as A Class!
And the crazy digital DIGITAL LIGHT (optional extra) allows completely new functions, e.g. the projection of marking aids or warning symbols to the road!!
But is the outside and inside design too polarising? Are the screens too much of a change? Today we explore:
- Predecessors to the “S”
- W116 - the first S Class
- W126 - careful evolution
- W140 - boxy domination
- W220 - a soft s class
- W221 - return to form
- W222 - the sweet spot?
- W223 - New car
- Exterior design
- Normal trim and AMG Line
- Technical highlights
- Digital headlights
- Different engines
- Future S Classes
- Interior review and details
- 223 interior vs old S Classes
- Conclusion

I’m buying a GT Black Series! Spec it with me!
Welcome back to RBR guys, and as the title says, today after years and years of buying AMG after AMG, I’ve just confirmed my first allocation for the new #AMG GT #blackseries! And today we’re going to spec it together!
Big thanks to LMM Design on Instagram for assisting with the 3D Model Shape for the GT Black! It allowed me to get the shape perfect before doing my usual RBR effects and texturing the car for realism. First time we’ve worked together and hope to see more from him in the future, follow him on instagram to see his work, or commission him to render your future cars! - https://www.instagram.com/lmm23design/
I’m feeling super excited, and very lucky to get an allocation, though luck is maybe a little bit unfair to say, rather my loyalty and history has been rewarded by MBUK. My history with the GT is so rich it's more accurate to call me Mr AMG GT, after all this will be my 8th AMG GT!! Which is pretty ridiculous. Imagine VS someone has owned a dozen 911’s over the generations, the different eras make sense. But there’s only been one generation of the C190 GT. lol. It’s not a flex, but just a true reflection of my slightly illogical AMG addiction.
The journey really began with the SLS, the father of the GT and first car #MercedesAMG made from scratch. I had two of these at different times, the first was AMG Le Mans red and porcelain interior, The second was the coolest car spec I’ve ever had, liquid Alubeam silver..
The SLS proved to me what the Affalterbach kids can do from scratch. So getting the first C190, the GT S was a no brainer. Mine was magno iridium silver with tan leather, owned over 2 years and used pretty much every day, it had real Supercar presence and sound. I briefly also had an Edition 1 GT S after this, fixed spec with aero. Though I much preferred the standard.
Then came the Beast of the Green Hell, saw the crazy launch live with Tobias Moers and Lewis Hamilton. Again with the R, I had it for over two years and was my go to car. Nothing has ever sounded or drove like it did! During the R ownership though, came 50 years of AMG, and they celebrated it with a new model: the GT C edition 50 limited run in Coupé and roadsters. I bought both, stupid I know. It was so close to the R in performance and really made no sense to have them. But I did, and drove the Coupé straight to Affalterbach during the AMG Roadtrip filmed on the Mercedes YouTube channel! Link Below. Roadster was cool in the summer too.
Then the GT 4 door: again 15k miles covered, driven to AMG, loved to pieces!! The Pro came shortly after, for me biggest honour ever being the first to film the 2 door Gt factory AND see my own freaking car built, even got to sign the torque tube. Link below.
And now. The Black! It’ll Join my C63 black series, but it’s my first from new car from the dark side of AMG. So how do we spec this monster? There’s not a lot of options so Let’s use our usual RBR VFX and spec the car together!
- My SLS AMG specs
- AMG GT S “AMG Hammer”
- AMG GT S Edition 1
- My AMG GT R
- GT C Edition 50 Coupe and Roadster
- AMG GT 4 Door - GT63S
- AMG GT R Pro

2020 Porsche Macan Turbo! Facelift Sound + Full Review!
The Sports Car SUV that shook up the world! Thanks to Squarespace for sponsoring this video! For 10% off your first Squarespace website or domain, visit https://squarespace.com/removebeforerace and use my code "removebeforerace".
The original Sports SUV is back with a new look and more power in the facelift! It’s also the one car in the Porsche line up that we hadn’t reviewed in RBR up until now, so a quick look at the history is in order!
if you’ve seen my Cayenne coupe video, you’ll recall the story of how the saved from near collapse, with sales figures eclipsing 911, becoming the car known as the “SUV that can tow an entire carmaker." This was back in 1992 when Porsche was struggling in debt, with new CEO Wendelin Wiedeking axing models like 928, revamping the production methods to promote part sharing, and also brought in the baby 911, aka Boxster. Another car with big margins, sales and profits.
The next plan, was genius. Take the formula of the Boxster: a smaller cheaper arguably more dynamic car. Mix it with the practicality yearned for by customers in the Cayenne: and boom. The baby Porsche SUV was born!!
Now that development project was originally known as the Cajun, as in Cayenne Junior. This was then renamed later to Macan, which famously means tiger. It was the first SUV to drive like a hatchback or Spart sedan, and since has given rise to a huge number of rivals. In 2018, the Macan outsold the 911, Cayman and Boxster combined!
In this facelift, gone is the old 3.6-litre turbocharged V6, and in its place a new 2.9-litre twin-turbo unit sits. Well, relatively new at least – we’ve already seen the sub-3-litre hot-vee unit (with both turbos nestled between the cylinder heads) - Same engine we have seen in the RS5. Still this gives 39bhp more than the old Macan Turbo, and a 0-62mph time of 4.3sec should Sport Chrono be optioned.
The new Macan gets standard fitment of Porsche Surface Coated Brakes, which feature a tungsten carbide coating on the cast-iron discs that Porsche says reduces wear, increases friction, yet reduces brake dust by 90 per cent. PASM adaptive dampers are standard, regular steel-sprung suspension - while options include air suspension.
But how does it stack up to all those rivals? Today we explore:
- History of the Macan
- Cayenne origins
- The Porsche Cajun
- First 2014 Porsche Macan
- Macan Facelift
- Macan vs Macan S vs Macan Turbo
- Power and performance
- Future Fully Electric Macan Render
- Exhaust sound
- Interior review
- Full drive Review
- Conclusion

2021 AMG E63 S sedan! Sound, Details + History with Mr AMG!
The king or Super Saloons has a fresh new look! Thanks to Squarespace for sponsoring this video! For 10% off your first Squarespace website or domain, visit https://squarespace.com/removebeforerace and use my code "removebeforerace".
First look review of the new #MercedesAMG #E63 S model in sedan form, finished in the new “high tech silver” as first seen in the AMG GT Black Series! It’s been the consistently most viewed car on RBR, and today we check out all the details of the facelift and some history!
The E63’s lineage is the most relevant of any AMG, because it was truly the E that has stood out in each generation as the best that AMG have to offer in terms of bandwidth, and indeed value for money.
The first customer car to truly put AMG on the map was the 1986 AMG 124, when AMG implanted the 5.0-liter V8 in an E-class coupe, quickly and aptly named “The Hammer”. It is the blue print for our cars today, wide body, brutal engine, and super car performance. The hammer flew to 60 in 5 seconds, at a time when cars like the Ferrari testarossa were doing 0-60 in 5.5 seconds!!
Today’s Pre-facelift E63 #AMG, was for me the class leader in dynamic ability particularly in steering feel, and was the first to start the trend of switchable real wheel drive monster family cars, soon followed by the M5. But one thing it certainly wasn’t was super comfortable, a prize that ironically goes to the standard M5!
It also to my eyes looked a lot more S63 and C63, particularly from the rear. And spent most of it’s life with a face that was not in keeping with newer AMGs with the more aggressive face. And an outdated operating system to boot!
The facelift now looks like a whole new car outside, and treats you like a new car inside too. You also get a new 20” wheel option, and non S gets the amg dynamic pack option with:
- Red callipers
- Dynamic steering wheel
- Steering wheel buttons
- Race Mode
- Drift mode
- Brakes for non-S
Techincally, the Car seems unchanged with the same power output of 612BHP paired to the AMG speed shift 9 speed, but there’s more to unpack as today we explore:
- 1986 500e Hammer w124
- W210 E55 AMG
- W211 E63 AMG
- W212 E63S AMG
- W213 AMG E63S pre facelift
- W213 Facelift
- Design vs old E63
- Suspension changes
- Performance, engine and gearbox
- Exterior Walkaround
- Interior details
- Sound check - exhaust start up/revs

New Porsche 992 Targa 4S! History and First Drive!
The retro and gorgeous #Targa returns! Thank you to The Last Coat for sponsoring this episode! Get a discount now via the link below and use code RBRTLC20 for 20% off!
https://thelastcoat.com
Here is the Targa of the new 992 generation of #911, as the left field choice for #Porsche aficionados! Perhaps one of the most bizarre stories isn’t he automotive world, the Targa was born out of fear of auto regulations. In the previous 356 gen to the 901, the convertible Porsche was a big seller particularly in the USA. But with the 911, Porsche feared the NHTSA would ban the sales of convertibles. Thus they created a drop top with a permanent steel roll bar: the targa. "Targa" - shield in Italian - came from the Targa Florio sports car road race in Sicily, in which Porsche had scored seven victories.
From 1967 to 1982, this was the only way to get a convertible 911, until the cabriolet eventually debuted.
So the First Targa set the style in 1967 by way of the stainless steel clad roll bar, but later from 993 onwards the Targa saw a big departure in its form, much to its detriment. It turned into essentially a panoramic roof with sliding top, it didn’t look distinctive vs the coupe, and the centre of gravity was higher thanks to the mechanism.
It wasn’t till 991 that the Targa regained it’s desireabilty and returned to the aesthetics of the original Targa, with a hugely complex two piece folding system. One that carries through into our car today.
It consists of two parts, front soft top and rear glass, which has been further weight optimised. It takes only 19 seconds to open and close, and must be done at standstill. And it looks incredible, especially with the new satin black option on our car today!
So how different is this to the standard 4S? It still has 450BHP, 530NM and the 0-60 is an impressive 3.4 seconds on launch, which is the same as the cabriolet. But how much does the targa add or detract from the experience?Today we explore:
- History of the 911 Targa
- Targa roof operation
- Exhaust sound
- Interior review
- First drive Review
- Conclusion

NEW 2021 Mercedes S-Class!! First Look Review and Info for the Luxury Car King!
First info on the New Mercedes S-Class following an exclusive Co-drive! Today I got to sit in the New S Class for a two hour drive around Stuttgart with the head of the project, to bring you some preliminary info on the new w223 #SClass!
Every generation for the S Class brings in new technology that will eventually trickle down to the next E Class, new C Class, and pretty much every #MercedesBenz. Not only in tech, but also design outside and in as well as interior switches and most crucially: safety! Hell, the S-Classes history on safety has seen it influence pretty much every brand on the planet, making our cars safer.
Today I’ll tell you what I experienced in the co-drive of the new S Class, including it’s drive, comfort and any stand out features. I’ll also run down all the areas highlighted to me by the #Mercedes S Class project head with regards to the luxury , intelligence, driving, and the future in this new S Class.
For the full review of the new MBUX interior system in the S Class, including the famous new large screen, check my video below:

2021 GLA 45 S! Is the Bigger A45 as Exciting!? Full Review
The 45 S series latest entry is a sporty crossover for the “lifestyle” customer according to #MercedesAMG. But #AMG sell so many SUVs now, it’s hard to keep track what fits where, and for who.
So I’ve gone to the trouble to show every AMG SUV, here in this video. Then try and decide where this new Rocket from Affalterbach fits in.
So first let’s see what has improved vs the old one. Previous car mimicked the A45 of it’s time with 380BHP, 0-60 of 4.8 seconds from the 4 cylinder single turbo engine. The 4matic was it simplest application, with a maximum of 50% power to the rear. And the car itself was an oddly less practical car than the A45. But despite this it was to my eyes quite good looking in full fat AMG form. Though easily forgotten in front of the A45, the whole GLA was still massively successful with 1 million units sold.
The new car is quite a departure just in pure size, and this needed to happen. 10cms higher, 1.5 shorter. = much more rear space and headroom. But those dimensions had the unintended effect of making it more a small blobby suv rather than a larger hatchback.
The GLA 45 S throws out the simpler AMG formula of standard 4Matic+ 4 cylinder engine and takes all the internals of our Thor, A45S. This is a good thing. The mental new engine producing 421BHP, and 0-60 in a mere 4.3 seconds is fantastic. Torque is higher as is the 7200 rev limit, and the car gets a more open exhaust vs the 35 version meaning lots of pops and bangs! It’s connected to a fast reacting 8 speed DCT. But the best bit is the 4Matic+ system with fully variable power, meaning we can go 100% to rear like the GLE53. But not drift mode, are you heart broken?
Suspension and rigidity are up a notch with a sheer pane up front, and more braces front and rear, and as we saw in A45S, it should add some genuine sporting ability to this mini SUV
Looks wise it doesn’t quite follow the A45S and CLA I having a totally unique design. Rather frustratingly the body work is identical to the 35, something we will explore. That being said, it does look rather GLE and GLC from some angles, which means it’s playing less pretend SUV now.
But the GLA45S faces tough competition just internally, so today we explore:
- Every AMG SUV compared! GLS 63, GLE 53, GLE63S, GLC43, GLC63S, G63, GLB 35, GLA 35 - Did i miss any?
- GLA45S vs GLC 63S and GLE53 on price
- Old GLA45 2014/2017
- New GLA dimensions
- GLA45S Engine
- Drivetrain and 4matic+
- GLA45S vs A45S and CLA45S on design
- GLA45S vs GLA 35 on design
- Aerodynamic Package
- Future GLB 45S
- GLA45S exhaust sound
- Interior review
- Full Performance Review
- Conclusion

We get tonnes of weird and wonderful #concept cars in the auto industry, but most of them are painted blocks of clay and rubber made pretty! Not the #MercedesBenz Vision #AVTR: it’s a fully working drivable EV concept car, with a WHOLE NEW way of driving the car, moving sideways and even DRIFTING!
The AVTR’s exterior was designed by Alex Dang, part of Gorden Wageners design team, and was inspired by the world of Jame’s Cameron’s AVATAR movies! It takes the idea of Humans merging with Nature and technology, and applies it to a 2+2 Mercedes sports car.
The wheels are balls, the rear has reptilian like scales, the whole car uses LED’s to convey what the car is doing, and the interior... a whole new idea on both multimedia, navigation and control.
Today we explore:
- The Coolest Concept Cars from Mercedes Benz
- Vision AVTR Full Walkaround
- Inspiration from Avatar
- Interior of AVTR
- AVATAR style Multimedia system
- Driving the Mercedes Vision AVTR
- Drifting in the AVTR

The NEW AMG GT Black Series!! Join Mr AMG for a First Look!
The SIXTH and ULTIMATE Black Series has finally arrive! Guys, today is the day we have been waiting for with baited breath. I’m Raz, your Mr AMG, and today I have the honour of Unveil to you, the next in the ultimate chapter of AMG - The #AMG GT #BlackSeries!!
I am also still shaking, I too lost my breath upon viewing this car for the first time. As you can no doubt see now, every element differentiates from all previous iterations of the #MercedesAMG GT Family. A car squarely aimed at becoming the king of the Nurburgring chasing the SVJ and GT2 RS. Let’s explore it today in only the way RBR can!!
I’m so damn excited about this guys. This is what AMG is all about, hard to control positive emotions all from a love of extraordinary products. I’m going to show you every inch of this car. The story of the Black Series began with the little known SLK Black Series. Ironically the rarest of all Blacks, it had extensive use of Carbon fibre, 50 more BHP from the V8 crammed in that mini SLR body, but most significantly was a proper Coupe rather than a folding top like all other SLKs. The SLK 55 was the best small AMG back then before the C63 came, and this Black Series took a great car and made it even more emotional and focused.
This idea, continued across the future Black Series cars. There have only been a handful, and the name is only reserved for the most special cars in the AMG family.
The most famous as the duo of the SLS Black and the C63 Black Series, Two cars that really took a great amount of learning from GT3 racing and brought those technologies to the road. Particularly with focus on aerodynamics, cooling, rigidity and weight saving.
But for the AMG GT Family, these areas were seemingly already duly covered. The Series began with the AMG GT S in 2014. A car somewhat based on the SLS AMG underpinnings, it was no baby SLS in performance proving itself super dynamic with tis 4.0 V8 active engine mounts and what was simply a glorious chassis. Even in its base form with less horsepower at 510 BHP it was simply faster than SLS. This was followed 2 years later by the infamous GT R, we all know this beast. Taking tech from the GT3 that came before it, it had 585BHP, high usage of carbon fibre and lighter materials, focus on Active Aerodynamics, Cooling, multi stage traction control from GT3 emotion, track package… The Beast of the Green Hell was born.
Now when you compare what areas the SLS Black Series Improved upon the Base SLS, as well as the percentage in sheer performance numbers, that seems to be what the GT R achieved for the GT Family. This was further compounded by the GT R Pro, a car truly for race track with no added power but a whole host of suspension and aero revisions, again pulling data from AMG GT4 to make the GT R that much more Track capable!
But I always believed, almost like the coming of a Messiah, the Black will come true believers. And here it is today!!
How do you improve on what was frankly the most capable car in AMG history? Today we explore:
- The History Of Black Series
- The AMG GT Family - Does it need Black Series?
- GTR + GT R Pro vs Black Series
- The AMG GT Black Series
- Power and Performance
- The new M158 LS2 Engine for Black Series
- Flat Plane vs Cross Plane
- GT Black Series V8 Exhaust Sound
- Black Series Aerodynamics
- Exterior Design
- Materials used
- Suspension and Rigidity
- Drive train elements
- Huge Double Rear Wing
- GT Black Series Interior
- New Orange Black Series AMG Magmabeam Colour

New 2021 S-CLASS INTERIOR! Future of Mercedes Luxury Technology!
That huge screen you’ve all seen is here! Finally the whole system of the New #SClass in unveiled at a secret #MeetMyMBUX event at Mercedes’s design centre in Sindelfingen!
Theres tonnes to unpack, that goes well beyond just big screens, and really shows how the #NewSClass will take #MercedesBenz user experience to the next level. We have a 3D driver screen, yes 3D! A huge new HUD screen with augmented reality features, “Hey Mercedes” voice control has also been taken to the next level, and the new S Class even has biometric fingerprint security!
The UI design is familiar to the last iteration of MBUX, but the UI is looking sexier than ever, but the system is also much easier to use. Today we explore:
- New S Class Interior Infotainment system
- 3D Driver zone
- Driver Zone Designs
- HUD upgrade
- Augmented Reality
- “Hey Mercedes” Voice assistance upgrade
- Fingerprint scanner, facial recognition and more
- Power in the rear seat
I love the Sport design, and can’t wait to see it in the S Class and then AMG S63 versions down the line! No doubt the New C Class interior will also follow suit.
Up next on on RBR is the AVTR drive teased in the last Vlog video!! Subscribe to support us and see it first. :)
