On this episode of DailyDrivenExotics, the team dives headfirst into the world of automotive resurrection with a forgotten AMG GT. The car, left to decay for three years, presents a daunting challenge with its battered exterior and a non-starting engine emitting a suspicious fuel smell. As they peel back the layers of neglect, they uncover a laundry list of issues including sun damage, mold-infested interior, and even signs of rat damage on the wiring. The AMG GT's troubled past, involving a track mishap and reckless post-accident actions, only adds to the drama.

With a keen eye for detail, the team meticulously inspects the car's undercarriage, revealing locked rear wheels, oil leaks, and debris from off-roading adventures. The once-glorious AMG GT now stands as a shadow of its former self, with dings, faded paint, and missing patches marring its once-impeccable exterior. Despite the daunting challenges ahead, the team remains undeterred, armed with a plan to revitalize the car using ceramic coating and replacement parts like tail lights and wheels.

As they contemplate the hefty price tag attached to restoring the car's exterior, the team also grapples with the uncertainty lurking beneath the hood. The engine's refusal to start smoothly hints at deeper issues, raising concerns about hidden damage and the extent of repairs needed. With a mix of determination and trepidation, DailyDrivenExotics embarks on a journey to breathe new life into this neglected AMG GT, facing obstacles at every turn but fueled by the thrill of automotive resurrection.
