In a daring move, the team at DailyDrivenExotics took on the challenge of a lifetime - rescuing an abandoned AMG GTS with a catastrophic engine issue. The car, left to languish for three years, revealed a troubling mix of oil and water, a sure sign of trouble brewing under the hood. With the dealer quoting an eye-watering $100,000 for an engine replacement, the team faced a daunting task ahead. Undeterred by the lack of response from Mercedes-Benz, they decided to take matters into their own hands, diving headfirst into the intricate process of dismantling the car themselves.
As they peeled back the layers of neglect, a unique discovery emerged - a license plate reading "Rest in Peace Beamer," hinting at future plans to transform the AMG GTS into a 1,000-horsepower beast with a GT3 race car body kit. Damon's return brought a touch of humor with a steel necklace gift, adding a lighthearted moment to the intense project at hand. The team's inspection of the car unveiled a peeled-off paint job, revealing a striking satin gray finish that sparked excitement for the future build.
Amidst the grime and grease, the team delved deeper into the engine removal process, navigating through challenges like oil leaks and damage from a previous track mishap. The complex DCT transmission added another layer of complexity, raising concerns about the repair costs involved in restoring the car to its former glory. With a mix of determination and humor, the team faced each obstacle head-on, showcasing their unwavering commitment to resurrecting the AMG GTS from its neglected state.
