G-Power tuner may be best known as creating
some of the globe’s craziest modified BMWs. Now, the
company has ventured to other brands including Mercedes, recently taking on the
AMG GT.
Based on the entry-level variant in the AMG GT
family, G-Power’s creation focuses largely on performance. As a result, the
4.0-liter twin-turbo V8 no longer punches out 462 hp and 442 lb-ft of torque.
Instead, the brand’s Bi-Tronik five-power module has been installed to increase
output to 610 hp, even more than the 577 hp musted up by the AMG GT R. The
result of this added grunt means the 0-100 km/h sprint drops to a mere 3.6
seconds.
In terms of the sport’s car’s exterior design, it
benefits from a prominent black front pslitter and new side skirts developed by
G-Power. While only small touches, they do add some extra road presence to the
AMG GT. Completing the visual modifications are a set of Hurricane RR wheels
measuring 20x9 at the front and 21x10.5 inch at the rear wrapped in 275/30 and
305/25 tires.
AMG GT owners will
need to part with US$ 2,679. As for the wheels and tires, they command a touch
under US$ 8,000.
