Under the glitzy spotlight of a major auto show, nearly all cars look great, which is why we always prefer seeing a brand new model out in the real world to get a better look at its design. Update: 2019 Mercedes-AMG GT 4-Door Coupe Starts At $136,500 2019 Mercedes-AMG GT 4-Door First Drive: Wunderbar The moment of truth has arrived for AMG’s new and confusingly named model, seen here in the 63 S flavor while roaming the streets of Germany. It does look substantially meaner than the CLS and the design has what it takes to fill in the void left after the CLS 63’s demise. In general, we’re not a big fan of all-black alloy wheels, but these don’t look half bad on Affalterbach’s … [Read more...] about 2019 Mercedes-AMG GT 4-Door Coupe Stands Out In Traffic
