This is the 2018 Mercedes-Benz AMG GT S — an absolute weapon. It’s got a 4.0L twin-turbo V8 pumping out 515 hp, hitting 0–60 in just 3.7 seconds. That exhaust? Pure drama. Inside, it’s all leather, carbon, and fighter jet vibes. It’s not just fast — it’s a showstopper.
Overview
SBX Cars is proud to offer for sale this 2018 Mercedes-Benz AMG GT S Coupe showing 20,435 miles at the time of this cataloging. Finished in Brilliant Blue Metallic over a black leather and microsuede interior, it is offered in Jersey City, New Jersey with service records, a clean CARFAX report, a digital window sticker, and a clear title.
Since 1967, the AMG name has become synonymous with high-performance Mercedes-Benz models, and the AMG GT was developed entirely in-house by Mercedes-AMG leading up to the car’s 2015 launch. From the beginning, the AMG GT was a showcase of distinction – there was no mistaking its long-hood, fastback silhouette, and prominent air intakes. The pronounced wheel arches were necessary to house its massive 295-width rear tires and also served to give the car an aggressive, wide stance.
The powertrain was where the AMG GT solidified its mark in motorsports: Its handcrafted 4.0-liter V8 gave the car a power-to-weight ratio that matched its athletic stance. Car and Driver said in 2018, “The AMG GT is visually arresting, blindingly fast, and extraordinarily rewarding to drive.”
The AMG GT “S” was an even more performance-focused variant. Most notably, the “S” package raised horsepower from 469 horsepower to 515 horsepower. In addition, it added the AMG performance exhaust system for a visceral – and variable – exhaust note. For those who were truly feeling bold, the GT S offered “Race” as one of the selectable modes in the Dynamic Select drivetrain. Designed for track use, Race Mode unlocked sharper throttle response, faster gear changes, and optimized handling.
This Brilliant Blue coupe takes the AMG GT S platform to new heights, courtesy of $35,190 in options. It was ordered when new with Dynamic Plus, carbon ceramic brakes, carbon fiber trim, an Exclusive interior, Lane Tracking, a panoramic roof, and more. It was serviced in fall 2024 by Mercedes-Benz of Boston and is now ready to deliver a gratifying travel experience to its esteemed next owner.
