I know it don't mean anything coming from a small town cop but I'm proud of you Joe, Lori and your camera guy. I remember when your channel was small and I said to myself this guy is the best car reviewer he is going to be popular soon. Sure enough you became very successful and gained a loyal following.
Big fan of Raiti’s Rides. Other reviewers don’t touch on important details like - the ride! - Appreciate this channel keeping it real (no race tracks, empty roads, etc) and consistent- providing us with the best reviews on the internet.
The Alpine Grey. The black wheels with yellow painted brakes. The aggressive wide stance. The large Mercedes emblem on the nose. The interior and performance. This is automotive perfection. Great review and fantastic camera work fellas.
Weight means a lot less nowadays , it can be overcome with suspension and power, among other things. Plus it’s impossible to make a light weight car have that “heavy-built” luxury feel, that come to expect with a Benz
This car takes it to the 911 and then some. The sound is intoxicating, and the grip on the cornering is superb. I wish I could afford one before the world goes crazy with electric cars. Thanks for the upload.
Hey Joe! Long time Subscriber here 👋🏾…LOVED THE VIDEO AND THE REVIEW!! Will you be reviewing the CLE53 AMG? Would love to hear what you think about it!
Loved the video - great work. Just drove one a few days ago, and you're spot on. One mistake: the cargo wall does NOT fold down on the model with no rear seats. (Not that you could actually 'seat' anything in them!) If you get the rear seats, then they fold down to allow longer items in the back. Just sayin'.
Mercedes owes you a big one Joe, I'm a diehard Porsche fan and your body language during this one sold me on the idea of at least trying a AMG before (and if ever haha) I pull the trigger on a pocket rocket like those. 198k ain't bad vs a GT3RS :D !! Thank you so much for making me feel as close as this to the actual real life experience of driving this car.
I absolutely friggin love this car. In my dream 6 car garage, this is in it. And I love the fact that unlike a Porsche or corvette, it's styling makes it so you can drive by some people and they might not even notice you. It's very subtle styling granted the kind of car it is. HOMERUN AMG!!
Right now I just turned 55 on July 13th last weekend. I own a 2020 WRX/ STI. My Bluebaru. If I were to purchase another vehicle before I died, it would be this one. Oh yeahhhh. A great video brother. 😊
yea, i would make the door handles matte black or something to match the other black fender stuff detail. then hard wire a radar detector and take it across the country. :)
Thanks again Joe. And you was right. What a car 🚗. Love all your videos and will stay subscribed. I'm a fan and supporting your channel. Let's go Joe. Raitis rides ❤😊.
Love this car but I wish the spoiler was recessed for a cleaner look out back and activated at a certain speed. But I wouldn't kick it out for eating in the garage😂
I am a big fan of European muscle cars. They have so much emotion and feeling unlike those electric toys. Once again Joe you have done a phenomenal job. I enjoy your videos. Keep up the good work.👍👍👍
Joe, your videos are great ! ! I have a SUGGESTION for you. During the next 5 or 6 videos, maybe you should start thinking of ending the mechanization aspect of your reviews. People can guess every move you make, before you make it. Check out the two guys from Canada and their "Throttle House" reviews, they are all different. Thank you. Keep having fun with the Twinkies and all the food items you remember. A Fan. FR
I dont know Joe I like this but there was really something special about the 2020 Mercedes AMG GT R that you reviewed not too long ago in that cool green. Is there a 2024 AMG R too?
If it was a manual transmission and 70 or 90 grand, I would so consider getting one and making payments until I die. This ride is hot af. .,, love it so much because it looks like my modified 2003 350Z
Hey Joe don’t get me wrong this is a very good nice sports car. Mercedes did a good job on the design. But I’m picking the corvette Z06 over this car Porsche is not on my list I’m not a Porsche fan so this makes my number two choice. Thank you Joe for another great review. Keep up the good work 👍🏾😀
Sharp styling and a sweet interior. We know a fortune to maintain and repair, along with often large depreciation. However for those who can afford to lose money or don't really care. It's a sweet looking sports coupe/grand tourer with a set of cohones.
You seem like you really enjoyed it Joe, I wonder if they are going to make a GTR model and a Black series like the previous gen. They're going to be insanely fast
Ohhhh🤔So it does have the “sitting on the rear axle” feel from the design of its predecessor..longer hood made it a bit more intimidating ..a l👀k even the Viper never had ..made it less Porsche-ee…like the Batmobile but practicality.. plus AWD I get🥵💯
I know it don't mean anything coming from a small town cop but I'm proud of you Joe, Lori and your camera guy.

Yes!!! Yo sigo a Joe desde que apenas tenía unos 10K subscriptores y pensé lo mismo, han pasado los años y sigo fiel viéndolo a diario!!
Pretty sure Lori is the camera guy
@@123cornflakemanShe isn’t always. Did you even watch this video and some others where she isn’t behind the camera?
You would be correct in that it don’t mean shit coming from a nobody like you
lori is the camera guy u can hear her voice in some edits he missed
This is in my ultimate dream garage.
Gotta dream big for sure David
This is an amazing V8 Sports vehicle. The AMG engineers put together a beast of a car.
Big fan of Raiti’s Rides. Other reviewers don’t touch on important details like - the ride! - Appreciate this channel keeping it real (no race tracks, empty roads, etc) and consistent- providing us with the best reviews on the internet.
bro race track and empty road is exactly what i want. idc how the sports car drives going 40mph in traffic
The Alpine Gray is smooth it makes the car look stealthy!
I totally agree with you Bryan
I saw one on the street cry me a river 😢❤ Jaw dropped. Stunning !!!! And what a sound my god.
Always love your honest and quirky comments! Makes your videos so much more enjoyable to watch than other channels!
My dream car!!! You did a damn good job Joe on this one!!!!!!!!!!! Keep up the good work!!!!!!!!
You got it Jason! Dream big my friend!
The Alpine Grey. The black wheels with yellow painted brakes. The aggressive wide stance. The large Mercedes emblem on the nose. The interior and performance. This is automotive perfection. Great review and fantastic camera work fellas.
In german we would say: außerordentlich schönes automobil 😉 greetings from germany
Thanks for watching from such a distance!
Joe and Lori and Steve keep up the good work real true and I love the video 👍
You got it my friend!
Just bought one. It is a beast and then some!
That rear stance is amazing
$200,000 and 4343 lbs you have to really love it.
This is so very true
Weight means a lot less nowadays , it can be overcome with suspension and power, among other things. Plus it’s impossible to make a light weight car have that “heavy-built” luxury feel, that come to expect with a Benz
@@foxxrider250r The new M5 is 5390 lbs. I partially agree but this car is going against some monsters.
@@foxxrider250r ever heard of Porsche?
This is 100% sarcasm right
No flaws except for that massive screen. It looks out of place. I don’t understand why this is the trend now.
Joe you crack us up. Your commentary while driving is hilarious
This car takes it to the 911 and then some. The sound is intoxicating, and the grip on the cornering is superb. I wish I could afford one before the world goes crazy with electric cars. Thanks for the upload.
Wow,Joe another one of my favorite cars, you must esp, because I was wondering when you were going to a review on another winner by Mercedes Benz😊😊😊
I am so glad that I could finally bring it to you Dejon
Hey Joe! Long time Subscriber here 👋🏾…LOVED THE VIDEO AND THE REVIEW!! Will you be reviewing the CLE53 AMG? Would love to hear what you think about it!
Hey there! Thank you for the great support! I actually will be so please stay tuned
What a car, and it can do everything! Great video!
Loved the video - great work. Just drove one a few days ago, and you're spot on. One mistake: the cargo wall does NOT fold down on the model with no rear seats.

Thanks for sharing that experience Chris!

Joe said the quiet part out loud. Again. 😂❤
I can’t resist
You were so damn happy, Joe! You need to get one. Forget about your Challenger. Get this. Or, get the LC500.
Hey Joe, thanks for the great review as always. Would this be a good upgrade after driving E450 coupe? What do you recommend?
The Mercedes-AMG 63 engine is legendary!
I absolutely friggin love this car. In my dream 6 car garage, this is in it. And I love the fact that unlike a Porsche or corvette, it's styling makes it so you can drive by some people and they might not even notice you. It's very subtle styling granted the kind of car it is. HOMERUN AMG!!
Nice recovery on that flub Joe! You’re professional grade all the way.
Thanks Brandon for having my back!
Great video as always Joe! Love the content. Will you be doing one on the C63S E as well. Curious to hear your thoughts on it.
"My Lucid is faster" 😂😂😂😂 you got love Joe ❤
Love the reviews Joe, keep up the enthusiasm!
Joe - Glad they kept the V8 and didn't go with the 4-banger just like in the C63. But I have to ask you. How does it compare against the GT-R?? 🤔🤔🤔🤔
Great video love all your videos congrats to Lori and you Joe for your success God bless
Right now I just turned 55 on July 13th last weekend. I own a 2020 WRX/ STI. My Bluebaru. If I were to purchase another vehicle before I died, it would be this one. Oh yeahhhh. A great video brother. 😊
Exactly, that's why I drive the STI, the feel oh yeahhhh. This thing, would really set me off. Oh yeahhhh.
From its sporty exterior to its luxurious interior, it's such a beauty! Mercedes never misses with these 🔥
Very cool. Almost looks like a 911 in the rear half!
yea, i would make the door handles matte black or something to match the other black fender stuff detail. then hard wire a radar detector and take it across the country. :)
Thanks again Joe. And you was right. What a car 🚗. Love all your videos and will stay subscribed. I'm a fan and supporting your channel. Let's go Joe. Raitis rides ❤😊.
The price tag made my jaw drop, 200K plus don't have a mechanic on hand. Love the reviews.
that is a ball out of the park for MB, what a sexy beast they've made and it goes like a bat out of hell!
The extra weight helps with everyday driving smoother and quieter plus the luxury of features add weight still nice performance
For the MSRP, absolutely not! But when it’s been a couple of years and depreciated a ton you bet I am getting one.
Ok ……. That Part 😎
Dam cool Joe love the look and color
I’m glad you are digging this one
Thanks Mr. Raiti. The Benz sounds like a monster! Can't go wrong with a Bi-Turbo V8.
Love this car but I wish the spoiler was recessed for a cleaner look out back and activated at a certain speed. But I wouldn't kick it out for eating in the garage😂
In 3 years this will be a good value buy
Snap, crackle, and some pop!
Love it!! 😂😂👍👏
Gorgeous engine and raucous exhaust.
With a passenger Twinkie holder... doesn't get any better than that right there.
I am a big fan of European muscle cars. They have so much emotion and feeling unlike those electric toys. Once again Joe you have done a phenomenal job. I enjoy your videos. Keep up the good work.👍👍👍
REALLY THANK YOU BROTHER JOE I WISH YOU AND YOUR CREW MORE SUCCESS
Very nice……….but I will take the Porsche 😁. Thanks Joe and Steven Flood photography ! 👍👍
My new favorite episode. That sound. Oh mama
That's something I wouldn't mind driving 👍👍
You have great taste!
Its beautiful
16:48😅😅😅thanks for clarifying
Yes of course Joe & it's my dream car to buy.
damn looks mean af... the wheels color mix w the calipers... very cool ,,,
Anyone else see that orange Mclaren 750s at 16:16 😈😍
Good eyes
@@RaitisRides at 19:11 too….must have been driving your circuit..lol
@@drcaulfield lol just noticed that too
@@drcaulfield and again at 20:12... looks like a couple orange cars driving around
To the wheels in german:
Die Räder sehen verdammt geil aus!
😍Greetings from Hamburg 👋
Wife: "Honey, what's that cream you got all over the seats on your test drive?"
Husband: "Don't ask."
OMG! What a beautiful art of work.
Thank you! Cheers!You have very good taste Victor!
You have the best job ever.
Joe, your videos are great ! ! I have a SUGGESTION for you. During the next 5 or 6 videos, maybe you should start thinking of ending the mechanization aspect of your reviews.

that is a bad ass car
4:31 verdammter Kuss vom Chef. Haha I don't know what sentence would equal the meaning of it, but that's the literal translation
I dont know Joe I like this but there was really something special about the 2020 Mercedes AMG GT R that you reviewed not too long ago in that cool green. Is there a 2024 AMG R too?
I know how you feel! Not as of right now but I would think it would be coming in the next year or so.
I can see myself driving that Mercedes AMG 63. ❤
Sounds good to me Everrol!
Love your videos Joe keep up the good work!! ON THROTTLE
Thanks for having my back!
What a video Joe 🎉
Thanks Antonio for letting me share it with you!
$200K Gigawatts??? Great Scott!! I'll wait couple of years and buy one for $70k!
Absolutely love this ride…..man!
I am so glad that I can be the one to bring it to you!
Can't wait for mine in December
If it was a manual transmission and 70 or 90 grand, I would so consider getting one and making payments until I die. This ride is hot af.
.,, love it so much because it looks like my modified 2003 350Z
The only nice thing about the front end styling of this one is, you don't have to look at it when you're driving.
Previous gen interior was true interior with buttons and switches. New one is a iPad screen with very few buttons
I totally feel your pain on that one.
Have to sell to gen whatevers
Its looks unreal I wanna touch it
You need to definitely touch this!
Great looking car
Absolutely fantastic 👍🏾
Love to see this with a Mercedes F1 color option. Thanks Joe !!
Now we are talking
Hey Joe don’t get me wrong this is a very good nice sports car. Mercedes did a good job on the design. But I’m picking the corvette Z06 over this car Porsche is not on my list I’m not a Porsche fan so this makes my number two choice. Thank you Joe for another great review. Keep up the good work 👍🏾😀
Hey Joe- great review as usual. Could you get a review of a Porsche 911 991.2 Carrera 4 GTS on your channel please, thank you. Christopher
Hi Christopher! I will track one down for you
Fabulously exciting and gorgeous. At $200k? You've got some tough company up there.
That is so very true at that price point
Sharp styling and a sweet interior. We know a fortune to maintain and repair, along with often large depreciation. However for those who can afford to lose money or don't really care. It's a sweet looking sports coupe/grand tourer with a set of cohones.
QC has significantly improved on the new Mercs.
It will be a great CPO finance
Yep depreciation year 1 from $200k sticker will be brutal. 2025 you’ll see the 2024 with a few thousand miles for $159k
The large screen looks to big should be built into the dash!! The car is a beast though!!
Gr8 review Joe! Sounds good, but not CT5V BW good! 😂
Neither have anything on a porsche 911
Joe I’m ready to sell one of my kidneys for one of the 😂😂😂. As always great work from the Raiti’s team!
Definitely a masterpiece!
Love it!
I think it's time to pull the trigger for a sports car. Such a nice car (16:16 beautiful Mclaren too)
Good eyes Omar
You seem like you really enjoyed it Joe, I wonder if they are going to make a GTR model and a Black series like the previous gen. They're going to be insanely fast
What a sexy car Joe! Awesome review, definitely better than any Tesla or Lucid for sure! :)
Hey Joe, might be time to add an AMG to the garage!
Hmm 🤔 I think I would go GTR first.
I’m I’m i
Its a sports luxury car. That is why I love this car. It's more in the Aston Martin category.
Midnight blue am all in as I drive my 2018 CLA AMG 45 !!
Very cool William
Love your car video
I can’t do it without you
@@RaitisRides Welcome
Nice, can't wait to get one in 20yrs
AMG is truly a magnificent car and like a 911 can be a daily ride Awesome review as always. Well done. BTW: "Unglaubliches Auto" (Incredible Car)
I love what you did there! Thank you for letting me share it with you!
Ohhhh🤔So it does have the “sitting on the rear axle” feel from the design of its predecessor..longer hood made it a bit more intimidating ..a l👀k even the Viper never had ..made it less Porsche-ee…like the Batmobile but practicality.. plus AWD I get🥵💯
So what happens to the Black Series GT?
The color is stunning 😍
I absolutely love it.
