      FYI that’s not how you calculate your horsepower per tonne, but instead the pound per horsepower. If you want horsepower per tonne, divide your car’s horsepower number by your car’s weight (converted into tonne).

    the a45 has a soft launch mode that you could've used...also you don't need to put it into "sport handling mode" to access launch control. but both cars are pretty evenly matched

  • @forshawxwilson2159

    Great video guys. My pick would be the A45AMG as it is a bit more hardcore. I actually uploaded a depreciation analysis of the A45 AMG to my channel last week. Especially the pre-facelift version is not doing too bad anymore depreciations wise. Those are just great value for money.

    If you spent the same amount of money on your R with mods vs what he spent on his AMG stock, you would utterly destroy the AMG with still a lot of money left over....while still getting better gas mileage. Your R is bigger, is more comfortable and has a better trunk (boot for you Brits). HOWEVER, having said that, the AMG just looks too damn good, sounds great and has a real nice interior. If money were no object, it's what I would buy. In full disclosure, I actually have a stage 2 GTI as my daily driver and a C63S AMG. So I somewhat have the best of both worlds. THANKS for the video!
