Overview
The Mercedes-Benz AMG GT Coupe is a midsize coupe offered in 5 trims, starting off at a base MSRP of $111,200. For that price, it mainly competes with the less luxurious Nissan GT-R Coupe and the Porsche 911 Carrera GTS Coupe. The Audi R8 Coupe is also a potential rival but with a much higher price tag. Between 2 trims, the AMG GT offers 2 powertrains. The base engine is a 4.0L Twin-Turbo V8 capable of making 456 horsepower and 463 lb-ft of torque. If more power is required, the same engine on the S trim also makes 503 horsepower and 479 lb-ft of torque. Both engines are mated to a 7-speed dual-clutch automatic transmission. The AMG GT reaches 60 mph from zero in 3.9 seconds on its base engine, which gets pumped up to 3.7 seconds with the higher output. Regardless of the output, the AMG GT manages a combined fuel economy of 18 mpg. While we're on the topic of choices, the 11 striking colors the AMG GT comes in really pull you towards itself.
