This Mercedes-Benz 300 SEL 6.8 AMG came in 2nd place overall during the 1971 Spa 24 Hours and helped put AMG on the performance map.
The 2013 Mercedes-Benz SLS AMG GT is a quicker, sharper handling, and certainly more expensive take on the exclusive Gullwing Coupe and Roadster.
The boxy 2013 Mercedes-Benz G63 AMG now has a twin-turbo 5.5-liter V-8 to get the 5721-lbs beast to 60 mph in 5.3 seconds.
The 2012 Mercedes-Benz SLS AMG Roadster’s huge torque and smooth surge to its 7200-rpm redline could easily spoil you for anything else.
The Mercedes-Benz ML63 AMG is one of a handful of highly competent, high-performance, luxury SUVs that can handle any weather or social situation. Now it’s even faster, fuel efficient and pleasing to the eye.

Fitted with a 7-speed dual-clutch transmission, the Mercedes-Benz SLS Roadster won’t stop accelerating until it reaches its (electronically limited) top speed of 197 mph. The sprint to 60 mph takes only 3.7 seconds.
Mercedes-Benz CLK LM. LM stands for Le Mans as the car was originally prepared by Mercedes-AMG to compete at the 24-hours event on the famous French race track.
The team decided not to use the original CLK GTR competing in the FIA GT races as they believed that the V12 AMG engine would not be capable to run for such a long period. Instead they installed the M119 V8 engine used in other racing series. Of course, the displacement was enlarged so that it was able to produce more power. Peak horsepower is around 600 (450 kW) and the race car runs to speeds up to 330 km/h (205 mph).
Along with the engine replacement, there were other changes to the car as well. Aerodynamics were improved, the roof was lowered and a new air engine intake was crafted. In total Mercedes-AMG produced 4 racing cars and one road-legal to meet FIA homologation rules for 1998.
