The Mercedes AMG GT S is presented at the Paris Motor Show, in Paris,
Friday Oct. 3, 2014. The Paris Motor Show will open its doors to the
public on Saturday Oct. 4, until Oct. 19. European carmakers are hoping
to impress with new models at this week's Paris Motor Show and prove
they have come out stronger from years of economic trouble and
cost-cutting
PARIS — If there's one car
that can challenge Lamborghini for drawing gaping crowds at this year's
Paris Motor Show, it's the AMG GT S on display at Mercedes' stand.
The
bright yellow sports car from Mercedes' performance division screams
speed. It's also just the second sports car developed entirely in-house
by AMG, which aims to compete in the same class as the Porsche 911 and
the Jaguar F-Type.
INSIDE:
AMG designers have gone with an "aviation" theme for the GT's cabin. The
spacious interior features a wing-like dashboard. Leather seats are
accented by several trim options including silver chrome, matte carbon
fiber, high-gloss carbon fiber, black diamond and matte silver
fiberglass.
OUTSIDE:
"Muscular" and "dramatic" are the two words that AMG uses to describe
its new sports car, and they are apt. A gracefully arched roof line and
frameless doors, matched with sculpted tapering side walls make the AGM
GT look fast even when parked.
UNDER
THE HOOD: An all-new AMG 4.0-liter V8 biturbo engine and 7-speed dual
clutch transmission delivers 510 horsepower and a zero-to-60 time
clocked at 3.7 seconds. AMG says it's the world's first sports car
engine with the turbos inside the V of the engine, which makes for a
more compact engine and improves throttle response and fuel economy, AMG
says.
GAS MILEAGE: 30 miles per gallon advertised.
CHEERS: The elegant-yet-muscular race car looks.
JEERS: None.
