A new star Mercedes-AMG GT

Today Mercedes unveiled their much anticipated Mercedes-AMG GT which is a smaller than the SLS which it does not replace.

The new car is a direct response to the Jaguar F-Type, Porsche 911 and Nissan 370. This leaves the Mercedes-Benz S 65 AMG Coupé at the top of the range.

AMG GT uses a 4.0-litre V8 with a curious turbocharging setup to produce 583 bhp @ 6800 rpm. The Turbos are nestled on top of the engine which we assume improves response to the intake chambers.

The first deliveries in the US are scheduled for Spring of 2015.
