Mercedes-AMG has revealed a limited-run model of the GT coupe with the APXGP Edition to celebrate the new F1 movie.

Under the bonnet, the car features the same engine as in the standard model, which is a 4.0-litre biturbo V8 that generates 585bhp and 800Nm of torque. Meanwhile, 0-60mph is dealt with in just three seconds and the top speed is 196mph.

The exterior includes 21-inch forged alloy wheels that are finished off in Race Gold, black brake callipers, carbon ceramic brake discs and carbon fibre front splitter, side sills and rear diffuser. Also, there is a fixed rear wing on the boot lid that’s also finished off in carbon fibre.placeholder image
