2025 Mercedes-AMG GT63 Pro: Stuttgart's Track Weapon Takes Aim at Porsche

• The 2025 Mercedes-AMG GT63 Pro combines 603 hp and AWD with track-bred hardware like carbon-ceramic brakes and active aero.

• Competes closely with the Porsche 911 GT3 RS, but undercuts it by roughly $25,000.

• Delivers everyday comfort with available rear seats and luxury touches like Manufaktur-exclusive paintwork.

In the arms race of high-performance coupes, AMG’s latest salvo is the 2025 Mercedes-AMG GT63 Pro—a precision-built machine that invites comparison with the best from Zuffenhausen and Gaydon alike. Priced at $197,050, this latest variant slots in as the sharpest tool in AMG's GT lineup, targeting enthusiasts who crave apexes more than Sunday coffee runs.

The GT63 Pro is no simple badge exercise. It builds on the foundation of the GT63 but injects a significant dose of motorsport DNA. While its twin-turbo 4.0-liter V-8 may not be new to AMG loyalists, its performance envelope has been stretched: 603 horsepower and 627 lb-ft of torque now funnel through a 9-speed automatic and AMG’s Performance 4Matic+ all-wheel-drive system, ensuring no corner exit goes underutilized.

With a 0-60 mph sprint of just 3.1 seconds and a top speed of 197 mph, the GT63 Pro doesn't just talk the talk—it shreds tires and punches through lap times.

But speed is only part of the story. This AMG is about consistency on track. Standard carbon-ceramic brakes, upgraded aero for increased downforce, and active cooling for both drivetrain and brakes make it a true circuit companion. The Pro also benefits from AMG Active Ride Control and adjustable AWD torque split, meaning it can pivot between a composed grand tourer and a laser-focused track machine at the push of a button.

Visually, the GT63 Pro flexes its intentions with aggressive styling and a range of no-cost track-ready upgrades, including Michelin Pilot Sport Cup 2 R Extreme tires, a front-axle lift system to save its chin in the paddock, and folding rear seats should you want to bring passengers—or just your helmet and gear bag.

And yes, there’s the obligatory AMG touch of exclusivity: buyers can spec it in the sinister Manufaktur Green Hell Mango paint, a callback to AMG GT R fans.

For context, here’s how it stacks up against its closest rival, the Porsche 911 GT3 RS:

While the Porsche holds the crown for purity and rear-engine prowess, AMG’s GT63 Pro brings brute force and all-weather usability to the table. Plus, it undercuts the GT3 RS by nearly $25,000—money that could go toward tires, track days, or perhaps AMG’s optional Burmester audio system for the cooldown laps home.

As Tobias Moers, former AMG boss, famously put it, “Every AMG should be a driver's car, regardless of the badge or the market segment.”
