The Mercedes-AMG GT 63 Coupé sits at the very top of AMG’s current performance car range. Powered by a hand-built 4.0-litre twin-turbo V8 producing 577 bhp, it delivers genuine supercar-level performance while retaining the usability and refinement expected of a flagship AMG. This example is finished in Alpine Grey, one of the £4,000 MANUFAKTUR paints, which suits the GT’s wide-shouldered, muscular design perfectly.

This particular car is a GT 63 Launch Edition, the highest-specification and rarest variant offered at launch. Designed to showcase the model in its most complete form, the Launch Edition comes as standard with AMG high-performance ceramic brakes with bronze calipers, 21-inch AMG cross-spoke forged alloy wheels in matte Techgold, the AMG Aerodynamics Package, Exterior Carbon Package and an upgraded interior trimmed in Nappa leather and MICROCUT microfibre.

Most notably, the Launch Edition remains the most performance-focused configuration, deleting the rear seats in favour of a traditional sports coupé layout. At a time when much of the Mercedes-AMG range has moved towards downsizing or hybridisation, the GT 63 Launch Edition stands out for retaining a pure petrol twin-turbo V8, offering a driving experience that already feels increasingly rare.
