Mercedes is known for creating unique models, and then special and upgraded versions of them, especially as seen in the Mercedes-AMG GT.

But at the end of the day, it is tuners who have the benefit of looking outside in to create bespoke versions that are modified in unique and stunning ways, seen again with the AMG GT that German-based Luethen Motorsport has created.

Luethen gave the Mercedes-AMG GT completely new aerodynamics and finishes, all while tweaking and tuning the engine to achieve improved output at the same time.

The new body kit for the AMG GT is crafted from carbon fiber and includes a front splitter, a fixed rear wing, new side skirts, and a new diffuser. On top of adding to the aesthetics of the Luethen AMG GT, the new kit also helps increase downforce and shaves the car’s track times.

Luethen also added new forged wheels to complete the look.

The German tuner gave the AMG GT a new custom ECU to work with their adjustments to the twin-turbocharged 4.0-liter V8. The result is a new top speed of 205 mph and 612 horsepower from the behemoth engine.
