In Germany, the Mercedes-AMG GT 63 SE Performance costs just under 200,000 euros. So the question is: Why is the expected proceeds of this tennis ball-colored specimen then 250,000 euros?
Easy. This Mercedes-AMG GT 63 and so on and so on (we will not always write this type designation) is unique. In the sense that only one was built in this configuration.
Mercedes-AMG GT 63 designed with Roger Federer
The car was designed in collaboration with tennis legend Roger Federer, who was a Mercedes brand ambassador during his career. So now you understand why the four-door coupe is tennis ball colored. Electric Beam, that’s what Mercedes calls the tint.
The 4-door Mercedes-AMG GT 63 is brand new and has no number plate
RM Sotheby’s is auctioning the AMG on November 26 in Munich. The proceeds, expected to be between 200,000 and 250,000 euros, will go to a good cause.

By the way, as a buyer you are not there yet because you also owe VAT on the hammer price and the commission (and BPM if you register it in the Netherlands). The car is brand new and has never had a license plate.
Top model of the AMG GT 4-door series with 843 hp
Mercedes-AMG offers several variants of the GT 4-door. At the top of the delivery range is the GT 63 SE Performance, which combines a 4.0-liter twin-turbo V8 with hybrid technology for an output of 843 hp.

The performance of the electrified sports car is immense. The Mercedes-AMG GT 63 sprints to 100 km/h in 2.9 seconds and reaches a top speed of 316 km/h. It’s not light, because the addition of electrical engineering jumps the scales to 2380 kilos.
