New carbon roof
additional carbon aero bits
adjustable carbon torsion bars
additional carbon strengthening under the rear axle
lightweight wheels in grey

I'm assuming that 20kg weight savings includes the bucket seats?

The new GTR PRO carbon roof is unique to that model. It has the dip in the middle whereas the regular GTR roof does not.
The GTR PRO exterior carbon packages are also different than the GTR... much larger front splitter, front flicks, front and rear side upright aero, etc.

Is this going to be the last version of the GTR? Has anyone heard if the Black series will follow?

I see.
I'm assuming the stated $35k is in Canadian Dollars as my Canadian dealer quoted me the same figure.
So, if we add up all the included packages in CAD, they come to $30,850 or roughly $4,000 more for the PRO.

Yes Black Series has been confirmed by Tobias Moers. Already testing, but will be seen in the summer on the N-Ring. Power numbers have been floated out, might see 700hp.

Where are you guys ordering from and from which sales? I'm also in Canada 😊

canucklehead

Yeah, that is pretty much the number I came to as well. Figure all the PRO specific upgrades ~$5k CAD. Which IMO is not bad.

I wanted to delete the stripes as I think they do not look good at all. The color selection (if you can call it a selection) is crap, second I think the stripes on the side are a styling failure and are distracting but the dealer wants me to order them any they will remove them if I still don't like them when I see the car in person. They probably want them for a few marketing shots.

GT R PRO Details
The new limited-edition AMG GT R PRO is characterized by further improved driving dynamics, in particular on the racetrack. Experience gained from the AMG GT3 and AMG GT4 racing cars was influential in its development, and no other current production Mercedes-AMG is as close to motor racing as the new AMG GT R PRO.

The new AMG coil-over suspension offers even more choice for tailoring the set-up to the particular track. As in professional motorsport, the driver is not only able to set the spring preload length mechanically, but can now also adjust the compression and rebound of the dampers. This is done quickly and precisely without tools via a click system with an integrated adjustment dial on the damper.

The AMG GT R is already fitted with Uniballspherical bearings at the lower wishbones of the rear axle. The AMG GT R PRO now gets these bearings also for the upper wishbones. They are significantly more wear-resistant than conventional wishbone bearings and due to their design have no play, which means toe-in and camber do not change even under high loads. As a result, the AMG GT R PRO can be driven with even more precision.

In addition to a host of carbon-fiber components, weight is saved by making the ceramic composite high-performance braking system standard. And exclusively for the AMG GT R PRO, the brake calipers will be painted black with white lettering.

Aerodynamic fine-tuning increases the overall performance of the AMG GT R PRO as well. The redesigned front apron was fitted with two flics at the sides made of clear-coated carbon fiber. The lower flics transition virtually seamlessly into the front splitter, which was extended further forward and is held by small metal braces that stabilize the front splitter at higher speeds. The air slots, or gills, in the front fenders effectively vent the wheel arches and contribute to reducing front-axle lift. At the rear, a clear-coated carbon-fiber aero element at the wheel arch on either side rises up vertically almost to the level of the tail lights.
The combination of all these measures significantly reduces front-axle lift without negatively impacting the aerodynamic conditions at the rear axle.

The AMG GT R PRO doesn’t only drive like a racing car, it also looks the part. The standard Carbon Fiber Packages I and II with front splitter, fins in the fenders, trim strips in the side sills, side mirrors, rear spoiler, and a diffuser with high-quality clear-coated carbon-fiber finish emphasize the racing inspired design and performance. Additionally, the carbon-fiber roof has been redesigned with a lowered center exclusively for the AMG GT R PRO.

Even before the world premiere, the new AMG GT R PRO has impressively demonstrated its performance potential on the racetrack: In early November, AMG brand ambassador and AMG GT3 racing driver MaroEngel completed a circuit of the NürburgringNorth Loop in exactly 7.04.632 minutes driving a still disguised AMG GT R PRO. This considerably bettered the previous time for the AMG GT R and demonstrated the great potential of the current AMG flagship model.

Hi,
I am new to the forum. Today I was lucky enough to place my order on a new gtr pro. I had two on hold and one was sold a couple hours before I pulled the trigger. Both dealers had the colours/options already selected and locked in. I ended up with the matt silver combo.
It will be quite rare in Canada, only 35 of them coming up here and 150 confirmed for the States.

Now the wait

susman@eurogermantown.com

did they give you a real PO #? there isnt a single one ordered (or at least allocated to a dealer) in the US yet..I just did a search.. Ive been begging for one with my rep

• DV2 - GT R PRO Edition
  • B28 - Carbon Fiber Side Mirror Housings
  • PAP - GT R PRO Edition
  • U99 - Carbon Fiber Rear Fixed Wing
  • 478 - Coilover suspension
  • 5U9 - Crossbar - Carbon Fiber - Matte
  • 773 - AMG Carbon Fiber Exterior Package

palub

Yes I have an actual PO with the build. There is no confirmed price yet, but the dealer is expecting it to come anytime now. They expect it to be around 200-210 CDN. The dealers received their allocations Feb 18-19. I would be surprised if we receive the allocations prior to the US as we typically get everything last.
There is also no idea of when the car will be delivered but it is expected to be end of year at best but most likely March 2020.

palub

I too rather have the black series but I suspect it won't be anywhere near the pricing of the gtr pro. I bet it will be closer to 300K. In Canada, chances to get one will be slim as well. I will definitely push to get an allocation once available.

Huracan EVO is also 150K more up here.

Update on the PRO in the uk.

DOG released at last, this is officially a non-specable car here.

all cars grey/green stripe and same options £188k

Cancelled my ordered. Back to Porsche for me.

thebishman

GT3 RS?

WhiteBlack

thats the plan, wanted to love the GT but MB just seem to do their best to stop me.

AMG 17GT

Well at least the P cars are a lot less now.

thebishman

Are there still allocations for the 991.2 version available in the UK, or are you thinking used?

The market over here has been upended in many ways by the number of GT3s; GT3 RS' and GT2 RS' produced by Porsche for the 991.2 iteration. Many 'flippers' won't be making a killing this time due to the number of cars available. GT3 RS' apparently can be purchased for MSRP occasionally even now, and should potentially be sub-MSRP on the used market soon.

I have thought of getting a 991.2 GT3 RS but it just doesn't tick all of the DD boxes versus the GT R, even if it might be a little quicker on a road course, and of course to most people it's just another '911', whereas the AMG GT cars are still regarded as something somewhat 'special' due to their rarity.

Good luck with your search; let us know what you end up with as I'd love to see it.

There’s a second batch coming that I may be able to get a slot for.

Porsche market here is softening because of supply and the B-word. Wouldn’t pay overs!

i also purchased a Schirmer M3 this year as well so I’ve options on all fronts really.
