That is option 773 and known as Carbon Fiber Package I ($5250 sticker value), which includes not only CF Front Splitter and Rear Diffuser, but also the Side Skirts, and the Fins in fender air outlets.

This CF Package I is more rare than the CF Package II (SIde Mirror Housings, Rear Wing), but agree, it significantly enhances the vehicle.
Good luck!

2020 AMG GT R
If it helps, here's another data point. In May, I started working with a non-MB dealer on a 2020 Green GT R with 29 miles. It was listed at $175k (stickered at $196k) and I bought it for $175k. They had others interested in the car and it was the cheapest 2020 GT R listed anywhere at the time. They told me by the end of the paperwork they could've sold it for another $10k if I hadn't committed.

Shortly before that I had gone to a local dealer on a 2020 Blue Magno GT R with 6k miles. Listed at $185k and they would not budge on price and said they could easily unload it at that price. They sold it within 2 weeks.

Congrats on the sweet deal! Did dealership give any reason for why initial owner turned it in with such low mileage?

2020 AMG GT R
Carfax history shows:
- Bought new in Sep '20
- 3 weeks later repo'd by MB financial with 24 miles
- Bought by dealer in Nov '20 from dealer auction

It sat in their showroom since then. They originally had it listed higher but dropped it over time. I asked them how much they made on the car after I bought it. They said a couple grand. So, yeah, I think I got a decent deal.

Ah, Repo is the reason. You Sir/Ma'am did indeed obtain a sweet deal on an essentially New 2020, especially in this speculative, supply/demand climate - precisely the type of vehicle aforementioned, ripe for a deal.
Enjoy in good health!

Let's get the OP into one already! 🙏🙏🙏

yeah the whole picture series is somewhat off. Too many reflections from trees crass and sky with tons of pollen. The owner states the paint is perfect and “not a scratch”

A buyer can walk away if the car is not as represented. I wouldn't worry about the paint. 4 hours left.

I agree I would not be happy when it arrived and I found flaws. If I was really considering buying from BAT/Dealer/Private you could have someone from this forum that lives near the owner/dealer check it out if you don't live near it.. I would hold out until you find what you want. Your "R" is out here.

Patience is a virtue in this situation! I am up here in vancouver Canada, I shopped for my newly purchased GTC for almost 6 months and i finally found me in June in Toronto... there were numerous units I liked, but didn’t love, and I refused to settle on options / colour on this particular car purchase. Carbon fibre exterior pkg, Magno Iridium Silver paint, exclusive saddle brown interior, 3D Burmester sound system, distronic, ventilated seats ... exactly how I would of spec’d a factory order, and it came with all the oem goodies still in their original packaging and never used ( charger, AMG key backings etc ) ... has 5000 miles with 2.5 years of remaining manufactures warranty and I paid $130k cdn, or approx $105k usd ... low mileage clean 2018/19 GTR’s up here are priced around $160k cdn or approx $125k usd, you may save a ton of money importing one ... keep looking, in time your perfect










R will find you!

Probably more trouble than its worth. You would pay the import duty, plus modifications for US DOT. No warranty would go with the car.

Great choice with the magno silver. How come you didn't go for a GTR? It does seem like all the inventory is in Ontario.
