A German missile wrapped in pure elegance! A Stage 3-tuned twin-turbocharged 4.0-liter V8 and numerous other upgrades sets this one apart from the rest.
Overview
SBX Cars is proud to offer for sale this modified 2016 Mercedes-Benz AMG GT S showing just 9,260 miles at the time of this cataloging. Finished in Jet Black over a black and gray Exclusive leather interior, it is offered with manufacturer literature, an owner’s manual, build receipts, and a clean Carfax report by West Coast Dream Machines in Vancouver, British Columbia.
Launching in 2015, the AMG GT was assembled in Sindelfingen, Germany and drew worldwide attention right out of the gate. Its silhouette featured a long hood and a short rear deck, giving it an instantly recognizable – and aerodynamic – sleekness. Even in stock configuration, the AMG GT was praised in automotive media for its sharp steering, responsive handling, and strong brakes – not to mention its 500-plus-horsepower biturbo V8, even in stock form. Car Magazine called the car “intoxicatingly fast, comfortable over long distances and blessed with balanced, accessible handling.”
The AMG GT’s already-stirring looks and performance weren’t good enough for West Coast Dream Machines. The skilled crew at WCDM’s facility in British Columbia partnered with Outrun Manufacturing to transform this AMG GT S into a savage machine. Upgrades included a Stage 3 twin-turbo upgrade making 825 horsepower at the crankshaft with 700 horsepower at the wheels, a Stage 2 transmission tune, ZAC Motorsport air intakes, performance downpipes, an Akrapovic premium exhaust system, and a full CMST Black Series carbon fiber body kit. The car shows fewer than 10,000 miles on the odometer and showcases near-new finishes both inside and out.
The exterior’s menacing black finish is appropriate; this high-performance grand-tourer is dangerously potent. If this AMG GT S gets you into trouble with the law, you can’t say we didn’t warn you.
