Mercedes Benz AMG GT

Overview: Is the Mercedes-AMG GT a Good Car?

The AMG GT name can be confusing for casual Mercedes-Benz observers. Originally appearing on high-performance coupes and roadsters, the AMG GT moniker was added to a sleek and high-powered four-door coupe for 2019. The two-door variants went away after 2021, but a hardtop two-door returns for 2024 (with available 2+2 seating). Regardless of the body type, the AMG GT delivers sheer driving excitement and dramatic style. Buyers can expect precision handling, race-inspired technology, and ulra-premium interior materials.

Note: Equipment, features, and trims can vary by model year. Always confirm these details when looking for used Mercedes Benz AMG GT cars for sale.

Trims

Trims for the Mercedes AMG GT are like a bowl of alphabet soup. The car is a four-door coupe if there are numbers with the GT name (GT 43, GT 53, GT 63, or GT 63 S). Meanwhile, simpler badging (GT, GT S, GT C, or GT R) refers to a two-door coupe or roadster. The king-of-the-hill AMG GT is the Black Series Coupe.

Comfort, Technology & Cargo

The AMG GT provides an opulent, driver-focused cockpit layout with available luxury amenities like massaging seats, a Burmester surround sound system, and MBUX infotainment. The four-door coupe's backseat occupants will also find a premium setting. Cargo capacity is not a priority for the AMG GT, regardless of the body style. Carrying more than a few suitcases can be a challenge.

How It Drives

With Formula One-inspired technology and impressive handling, this Mercedes sports car delivers impressive performance capabilities. Yet used Mercedes Benz AMG GTs remain reasonably refined enough for daily use. Sub-four-second acceleration times for a 0-60 mph run are standard fare for the AMG GT, with top editions breaking the three-second barrier.

Safety

As a low-volume sports car, the AMG GT has not been rated for crashworthiness by safety agencies. However, it offers the latest Mercedes active safety features, like automatic emergency braking.

Reviews

The limited number of AMG GT owners reporting to Kelley Blue Book about their cars may not provide a complete picture. However, this handful of consumers give this Mercedes an average rating of 4.5 (out of 5.0). Performance and styling are the highest-ranked elements. This group is less complimentary about the AMG GT's value, reliability, and comfort.
