Introduced in 2017 the AMG GT C sits just in between the GT R and the GT S in terms of how hardcore a performance package it delivers. Borrowing the wider body work and track of the GT R and tuning the M178 engine to 549hp, this car really holds its own with some of the top performance super coupes in the world. The triple layer fabric roof can open in 11 seconds up to speeds of 31mph, to allow you to fully experience the intoxicating howl of that exquisite V8.

For decades Porsche has dominated the high performance super coupe market, with fantastic bang for your buck, but in October 2014 at the Paris Motor Show Mercedes showed their interest in taking the fight to Porsche with AMG GT. Building on the hugely successful Mercedes SLS AMG, the AMG GT is the second car in the company’s history developed completely in house by Mercedes-AMG giving it fantastic pedigree and extreme levels of performance.

Styling of the AMG GT is slightly less retro than the SLS with curvier lines and bulges and a sweeping fast back design. A spaceframe chassis and body made primarily of aluminium alloys help to keep weight to a minimum and make the most of the spectacular front mid-mounted twin turbo 4.0L V8. Step inside the AMG GT to find everything you would expect from a Mercedes interior, fantastic build quality, premium materials and an array of the latest gadgets and gizmos. Overall this car represents truly excellent value for money, taking the fight to Porsche and giving you another German super coupe to choose from, which is as competent on the road as it is on the track.
