In 2010, the acquisition and transformation of Brawn GP into the Mercedes‑AMG PETRONAS F1 Team marked Mercedes’ resurgence as a full-fledged factory works team, a status it hadn’t held in over fifty years. This return has had a profound impact on their commercial vehicles, with F1 technology progressively influencing both the mechanical and aesthetic elements of Mercedes’ production models. The culmination of this influence is the 2025 Mercedes-AMG GT 63 PRO 4MATIC+ “Motorsport Collectors Edition,” a vehicle that not only embodies the technical prowess of F1 machinery but also carries its visual flair.
This special edition model, limited to 200 units, is a tribute to Mercedes’ F1 heritage. It features an Obsidian Black Metallic exterior inspired by the current Mercedes F1 car, adorned with hand-painted stars and PETRONAS-colored accents that reflect the livery of the high-speed racers. The vehicle also boasts 21-inch AMG forged split-spoke wheels with PETRONAS-colored rim flanges, adding to its exclusive aesthetic.
The interior of the GT 63 PRO 4MATIC+ is equally impressive, with black Nappa leather and microfiber upholstery, accented with PETRONAS-colored stitching. The cabin is equipped with AMG Performance seats and a carbon fiber trim package, enhancing both its luxury and sporty feel. Additionally, the car features a 15-speaker Burmester 3D Surround Sound System, providing an acoustic experience as refined as its driving performance.
Technologically, the car is outfitted with several high-performance features as standard, including the AMG Aerodynamics Package, Extended Night Package, and Exterior Carbon Fiber Package. These add a functional edge to its sporty design, improving both its aesthetics and aerodynamics. Notably, the car includes a carbon ceramic high-performance braking system and an AMG TRACK PACE for recording data on racetracks, underscoring its racing pedigree.
Under the hood, the GT 63 PRO retains the robust 4.0-liter V8 twin-turbo engine found in the regular GT 63 PRO 4MATIC+, offering 603 horsepower and 627 ft-lbs of torque. This engine allows the supercar to accelerate from 0-60 mph in just 3.2 seconds, with a top speed of 196.97 mph.
Pricing for this collector’s item, while not explicitly disclosed, is expected to be around $200,000, positioning it among the more exclusive and expensive offerings in the Mercedes-AMG lineup. This places it in the company of other high-end sports cars, offering a unique blend of luxury, performance, and exclusivity that appeals to both car enthusiasts and fans of Formula 1.
