Product Overview

Mercedes-AMG GT C190 facelift is a high-performance sports car in production from 2017 to 2021. It was available with several tunes of Mercedes' M178 bi-turbo hot-V8 engine that displaced 4.0 liters.

Compared to the pre-facelift, the facelifted AMG GT only got some cosmetic upgrades. Mercedes also proceeded to confuse consumers with a number of new nameplates with varying degrees of aggressiveness.

Reviewer score 98% (normalized by Neofiliac)

Reviewers from autocar have found:

The new V8 has a gravelly, endearing note – nothing like a normal AMG V8 but not, either, as sonorous as a Ferrari or as flat as a McLaren. It has absurd amounts of forward shove and brakes that have bags of feel and show no sign of fade. With stability control full on, or even part on, it limits power before the car’s totally straightened. With it off, there's a 10-stage traction control system and the car rotates mid-corner more willingly.

Pros

Powerful V8
Impressive handling
Great fun to drive

Cons

Not the most exciting
Not the fastest

Reviewers from autoexpress have found:

The Mercedes AMG GT is undoubtedly one of Porsche's biggest headaches. It follows on from the dramatic SLS, doing without the gullwing doors, but lowering weight and increasing performance. It's one of the most expensive and powerful Mercedes you can buy. The base 516bhp model is a fun car, but those after a track-biased weapon will want the storming GT R - it's got 577bhp.

Pros

Powerful V8 engine
Comfortable to drive

Cons

High running costs
Interior isn’t as refined as the GT R

Reviewers from carmagazine have found:

The Black Series feels like a remastered evolution of the GT R. It is incredibly fast, showing an indicated 169mph at the end of the start-finish straight and 203mph on the fact sheet. Despite all that weight, mass and inertia, the McLaren 720S and Ferrari 812 rival is amazingly stable through the esses and that flat-out double-apex right-hander before you exit the in-field.

Pros

Sleek, lightweight chassis
Impressive handling
Superb ride quality

Cons

Lacklustre front-end performance
Pricier than rivals

Reviewers from cnet have found:

Once I toggle to Sport mode, the character of the AMG GT C immediately changes, adding sharper throttle response and quicker shifts. The standard rear-axle steering not only makes the GT C a corner carver, but a corner destroyer. My tester is equipped with the optional $8,950 high-performance ceramic brakes.

Pros

Powerful engine
Superb rear-wheel-drive
Excellent infotainment

Cons

Not the most fun to drive
