What reviewers say

Reviewers agree the new AMG GT is very fast, with strong, great-sounding engines, and more practical than its predecessor. The common criticisms are near-useless rear seats, a lot of weight and less character than the first car; Autocar and What Car? found the ride restless on UK roads, and What Car? also faults the road noise and interior quality.
