Mercedes-Benz AMG GT vs Toyota GR Supra
Verdict
The Mercedes-Benz AMG GT is the heavy hitter here: RM1,882,888 buys 577 hp, 850 Nm, all-wheel drive and 0-100 km/h in 3.2 seconds. The Toyota GR Supra at RM698,000 is a very different buy, with 383 hp, 500 Nm, rear-wheel drive and a manual gearbox. It is slower at 4.4 seconds and smaller inside the numbers, but its RM2,125 road tax and five-year warranty matter in Malaysia. The AMG GT wins on pace; the Supra keeps the bill saner.
Pick the Mercedes-Benz AMG GT if you want the quicker, more powerful coupe and can accept the RM6,549 annual road tax.
Pick the Toyota GR Supra if you want a manual, rear-wheel-drive two-seater with far lower purchase and road tax costs.
