Mercedes-Benz AMG GT Review 2023 | Top Gear
AMG reinvents the GT as more of a… GT. Quick, composed, versatile and keeps the thunderous V8 alive a little longer
"WHAT'S THE VERDICT?
“The old GT was always looking for a role, a purpose: now it has a clearer sense of its own identity”
It might seem a subtle shift of positioning, to go from a relatively hardcore sports car to a super GT - nothing more than the addition of practicality - but the GT comes across as a car more comfortable in its own skin. The old GT was always looking for a role, a purpose: now it has a clearer sense of its own identity.
It’s lost a little character and toughness in the process, but it’s well resolved and gets AMG back on track after the curiously imbalanced SL and poorly received 4cyl C63 hybrid.
This is its flagship, its statement car: it keeps the roaring V8 alive a little longer and should attract more customers than the old GT. It’s lost its uniqueness, but gained a whole heap of capability."

Mercedes-AMG GT review | Autocar
Second generation of AMG's flagship super-sports car gets four seats, four-wheel drive and a plug-in hybrid option
"The GT is a fabulously capable car, successfully handling its dual role of supercar and grand tourer by becoming better at both skillsets. It’s night-and-day better than its predecessor, retaining all of that car’s dynamic purpose and talents and adding greater finesse and control, better comfort and much more refinement at all times.
As for pricing, nothing is official yet, but expect the GT 63 to slightly undercut the £172,000 SL 63 at around £160,000. Meanwhile, its main rivals, the Aston Martin DB12 (which uses the same V8) and Porsche 911 Turbo (a flat-six), cost £188,000 and £162,000."

We all know that V8 is capable of so much more than what we have here.
They've invested a lot in the MSA platform, so I don't doubt for a minute a GT63S and GT63R will be release down the line with weight reduction and whatever else and perhaps a more powerful engine tune.
I think the most remarkable thing about it, is how its somehow more comfortable, and yet sportier than the predecessor. Really is quite an achievement.
I look forward to seeing how AMG develop this car and this platform. Seems like they can get a lot of mileage out it.

A slam dunk for AMG.
Sexy but sensual design, cutting edge interior tech, comfort, agility, growling V8 without hybrid BS.
This is peak Mercedes. Good to know that the 63 will be £10k speared than the SL63. The reviews and smiles in videos are night and day different to hybrid C63 and S63.

Ok, it looks and sounds good but why is it slower than its bigger brother GT63 4-doors and more expensive?

Is it slower?
RBR got it doing 0-62 in 2.9 seconds.
It's down about 50bhp on the GT63s 4-door

Happy man! Night and day different to watching him review a 4cylinder e-performance car.
Driving the C63 = Reading divorce papers
Driving the AMG GT = Intersource with a celebrity crush

Certainly, but we haven't go those yet.
Nowhere have I heard any complaints about it being too slow though.
