“Mercedes-AMG GT R” is one of the sportiest names a sports car could have. Of course, choosing such a name sets the bar very high, but AMG is a company that knows what they are doing, and the GT R lives up to all expectations. The base version of the car, the Mercedes-AMG GT, is a grand tourer (as suggested by the name), meaning that it was quick but was less performance-oriented, aiming at a good compromise between performance and luxury (and comfort). The GT R is the high-performance version, removing the “unnecessary” pieces of convenience and luxury in favor of better performance. This is very clearly a driver’s (or racer’s) car. It may not be the version you want to daily drive, but it’s definitely the car you want to be in on a track day.
Exterior and Interior
The 2019 Mercedes-AMG GT R takes clear inspiration from the SLS AMG, sharing its long-hood, wide-stance proportions and fastback roofline while adding its own aggressive identity. Unique elements include the vertical-slat Panamericana grille, enlarged air intakes, revised diffusers, and an adjustable rear wing — all of which underscore its track-focused character. Stripped of some luxury features to save weight, the GT R offers a purer driving experience while still allowing buyers to add back select options. This example was specified with both AMG Exterior Carbon Fiber Packages I & II, a Matte Carbon Fiber Crossbar, and Matte Carbon Fiber Interior Trim, blending motorsport style with everyday usability. Finished in Jupiter Red with red seat belts and a black Nappa/Dinamica Exclusive interior, it stands out visually while performance options like the AMG High-Performance Composite Braking System and 19”/20” forged twin 5-spoke wheels ensure capability on the track. Comfort and convenience are not forgotten, with the Burmester Surround Sound System, Convenience Package, and Active Distance Assist Distronic making it as enjoyable for road trips as it is for spirited drives.
Engine
The GT R isn’t just a standard GT with some extra carbon fiber on it. For starters, the handcrafted M178 4.0L BiTurbo V8 produces significantly more horsepower. It has the exhaust manifolds and turbocharges mounted between the 2 cylinder banks of the engine to minimize turbo lag. This engine, combined with the AMG Speedshift DCT 7-speed transmission gets the GT R to 60mph in a (factory claimed) 3.5s. The weight shedding, suspension upgrades and new aerodynamic components help it to handle well through the corners as well.
Mercedes Benz wowed us with their AMG GT R when it debuted in 2017 notably with its menacing looks and competitive specs. It appears as though Mercedes let their stylists go mental and the performance engineers wanted a free hand too. It makes a compelling case against many of the established sports cars and for the 2020 model year, it only got better. Three versions were introduced, two being limited edition models. The 2020 Mercedes-AMG GT R Roadster, like the example we are showing here, is limited to only 750 units. This specimen shows 24,250 miles on its odometer and currently resides in New York.
AMG seems to be doing a fine job these days, especially if parent company Mercedes-Benz has deemed them worthy enough to enjoy their own model line-up. Impressive for a tuner company that started off as independent in 1967, and was totally absorbed by Mercedes-Benz in 2005. The Mercedes-AMG GT is a sports car and grand tourer that was produced between 2014 and 2021, and the first of the Mercedes-AMG line. The car enjoyed a prominent role as the official Safety Car for Formula 1 from 2015 onwards, with the GT R variant prevailing in the role from 2018. If you’re looking for one, here’s a 2020 Mercedes-AMG GT R Coupe with just 11,017 miles on the clock that’s ready for action.
