Yeah an active aero convertible lol. It’s probably a GTC Vvariant or update.

Performante Spyder or Pista Aperta. AMG builds it to make money.

Porsche supposedly going to release a GT3 ‘vert. Perhaps AMG feel the need to compete in the same market?

Given the poor sales of the GT C ‘vert it seems a mistake to me.

Its going to be a fail... as bish stated they cant even move the GTC Verts (sitting and now anyone can get 10% off msrp). The price point on a GTR vert will be even higher and truly defeats the purpose of the "race car" than can be used on the street. Its a weak approach to me as who will really track this car? The weight will probably be close to 3900 lbs...

I cant wait for the Nissan GTR convertible LOL.

Looks like a GTC Roadster with a fixed wing. I think a GTR roadster would indeed be a fail. Would sell some no doubt...but too few.

Same design as the coupe, too many AMG GT line models.

I'm waiting for the announcement of the AMG GTS+
It's above a GTS but still below a GTC.
