The AMG GT is one of the most technologically advanced sports cars on the market, with a stunning, beautifully sculpted exterior and well-integrated technology, it is a stand-out in the segment. To go along with all the flash and gadgetry the GT's drivetrain is sharp and responsive providing seamless shifts via the 7-speed dual clutch automatic transmission in-between roaring exhaust notes when given the room to roam.
With the AMG GT, Mercedes has taken direct aim at its German counterparts, particularly the Porsche 911 Carrera GTS. While both vehicles are similarly priced and perform on the same level they go about the matter in completely different ways. The AMG is loud and menacing with heavy-handed styling and a front-mounted fire-breathing twin-turbo V8. The Porsche on the other hand with its rear mounted flat-six is more sophisticated and graceful with gentle sloping lines and refined features. Despite a hefty price tag, the Mercedes comes much better equipped than most competitors in the segment.
