Better Than the Stock Best: Creative Bespoke rolls out a 656-HP Mercedes-AMG GT S

The Mercedes-AMG GT family will remain incomplete until the Black Series flagship debuts, but do you really need it when there is the GT R Pro? The production run is limited to 750 copies, each boosted to 577 hp (430 kW) – the Black Series certainly won’t offer much more. But what if you want the best and you want it right now?

In that case, U.S.-based elite tuner firm Creative Bespoke has a solution just for you. Depicted here is the opulent Mercedes-AMG GT S, which packs 656 hp (490 kW). It also looks even more badass than the GT R Pro.

The German ride wears an all-carbon body kit consisting of two bumpers, a radiator grille, side skirts and an impressively large rear wing. The hood cover has a glass window in it, which allows a glimpse on the twin-turbo V8 mill inside.

Other notable features include Vossen Hyper Forged wheels fitted with Pirelli P Zero rubber, an H&R lowering kit and a posh-looking interior dominated by red and black leather.

The exclusive Mercedes rolled off the lines in 2016, has around 12,830 km (7,970 mi) on the counter and comes with a U.S. $144,800 price tag. Creative Bespoke says the upgrades alone cost north of $80,000.
