I am also still shaking, I too lost my breath upon viewing this car for the first time. As you can no doubt see now, every element differentiates from all previous iterations of the #MercedesAMG GT Family. A car squarely aimed at becoming the king of the Nurburgring chasing the SVJ and GT2 RS. Let’s explore it today in only the way RBR can!!
I’m so damn excited about this guys. This is what AMG is all about, hard to control positive emotions all from a love of extraordinary products. I’m going to show you every inch of this car. The story of the Black Series began with the little known SLK Black Series. Ironically the rarest of all Blacks, it had extensive use of Carbon fibre, 50 more BHP from the V8 crammed in that mini SLR body, but most significantly was a proper Coupe rather than a folding top like all other SLKs. The SLK 55 was the best small AMG back then before the C63 came, and this Black Series took a great car and made it even more emotional and focused.
This idea, continued across the future Black Series cars. There have only been a handful, and the name is only reserved for the most special cars in the AMG family.
The most famous as the duo of the SLS Black and the C63 Black Series, Two cars that really took a great amount of learning from GT3 racing and brought those technologies to the road. Particularly with focus on aerodynamics, cooling, rigidity and weight saving.
But for the AMG GT Family, these areas were seemingly already duly covered. The Series began with the AMG GT S in 2014. A car somewhat based on the SLS AMG underpinnings, it was no baby SLS in performance proving itself super dynamic with tis 4.0 V8 active engine mounts and what was simply a glorious chassis. Even in its base form with less horsepower at 510 BHP it was simply faster than SLS. This was followed 2 years later by the infamous GT R, we all know this beast. Taking tech from the GT3 that came before it, it had 585BHP, high usage of carbon fibre and lighter materials, focus on Active Aerodynamics, Cooling, multi stage traction control from GT3 emotion, track package… The Beast of the Green Hell was born.
Now when you compare what areas the SLS Black Series Improved upon the Base SLS, as well as the percentage in sheer performance numbers, that seems to be what the GT R achieved for the GT Family. This was further compounded by the GT R Pro, a car truly for race track with no added power but a whole host of suspension and aero revisions, again pulling data from AMG GT4 to make the GT R that much more Track capable!
But I always believed, almost like the coming of a Messiah, the Black will come true believers. And here it is today!!

You should have accidentally stepped on the brake and pressed that engine start button
-
I love the animations that you do!!
-
You put so much effort in your videos it's amazing 🥺🔥

Raz well down brother the quality of this video is bonkers, also hope this car sounds good and if it does it’s probably going to be the best amg to date

I'm so impressed. BMW could never 🤯
-
Another quality piece of content from Mr AMG! I am constantly surprised that this channel doesn't have more subscribers. No hate towards the other big YouTubers but this channel is all I need and sets the standard. Been a fan since the E63s edition 1 and I look forward to more great content!
-
You really put effort into your videos. They are significantly longer and more exciting with great editing. Out of the 6 or 7 black series videos i have seen, this is the best and most in depth
-
What a beautifully designed GT BLACK SERIES. Also a brilliantly presented presentation, well done Raz
-
Wow you took longer than other channels to upload the video about this GT BS. But you give no chance to them. This is like being in school, so much informative with the animations. Well done!! 💯👏
-
Your editing is on a different level 👍
-
SL65 Black Series is the 🐐
-
I absolutely love that you talk in details such as suspension parts, no one doing that
-
This is the review I’ve been waiting for 👌🏽 #TeamRaz

Good to have the black series back 🙏🏼 Looks so good!

You and Shmee need to start a support group for Black Series Addiction
-
This is one of those things in life I’d be happy to die for.
