5 Used Mercedes-Benz AMG cars for sale

Even though every AMG GT car has a 4.0-litre V8 engine with twin turbochargers, you receive different power outputs with each spec level. The basic version develops 476 HP while the GT S, GT C and GT R versions deliver 522 HP, 577 HP and 585 HP, respectively, making them strikingly fast.

The GT Black Series is the Mercedes-AMG model that set an eye-watering 6:43.616 lap time around the , breaking the previous record held by Lamborghini Aventador SVJ. As a result, this standalone AMG GT version is currently the fastest production car in the world. The GT Black Series is way more powerful than any GT so far, having 720 HP, but a new one is pricey, costing more than £300k.

For starters, an open-top 2-door, 2-seater sports car as the AMG GT is a roadster since the convertible is a 4-seater. Until 2019, you could get new GT S and GT C as a coupe or roadster body style. However, at the end of 2020, Mercedes simplified the line-up, offering roadster-only GT C and coupe-only GT R. The former came with a higher-spec leather interior and optional carbon-ceramic brakes.

The AMG GT is more composed than you would expect of a car that sends more than 500 HP to the rear wheel. It is comfortable for long journeys, especially for the coupe as you can close the windows and shut out the engine noise, although that is the fun of riding this supercar. The steering wheel is light, and the suspensions are top-notch, but very few roads offer the right conditions to explore this car's limits.

The cars in this class are not famous for their seating capacity, making the 2-seater configuration of the AMG GT a non-issue. However, its main rival, the , offers 2 rear seats for children. Behind the seats is a generous 350-litre luggage space, but it reduces to 285 litres if you use the load cover to protect your luggage.

The other factor besides performance and comfort that sets Mercedes-Benz outfits above the crowd is safety. Even though there are no official for the AMG GT, the car has adequate safety tech. They include knee bags for the driver and passenger, reversing cameras and numerous driver-assist features, both as standard and optional packages.
