What AMG basically does is make European muscle cars that light up their rear tyres at any given moment. Yes, they are badass. But if you’re under the impression that AMGs are the epitome of evil, you’re mistaken. The Black Series is what we are on about and this is the sort of car that the devil drives when he is out on vacation. We guess he has been called out to test the AMG GT R Black Series as it was found lurking at The Green Hell!
The AMG GT R Pro, which came out sometime back, was essentially the hardcore verison of the 2018 AMG GT R which is nicknamed the “Beast of Green Hell”. The Pro uses the same 4.0-litre V8 ( 585PS and 700Nm) but comes with lighter parts, new suspension, and better aerodynamics. All of this resulted in a Nurburgring Nordschleife time of 7.04.632, making it one of the fastest front-engined rear wheel drive cars on the planet. A 7-speed DCT sends power to the rear wheels and helps it achieve the 0-100kmph mark in 3.6 seconds. Top speed, if you’re wondering, stands at 318kmph.
