Overview

2023 Mercedes-Benz AMG GT

The 2023 Mercedes-Benz AMG GT stands out as a compelling used performance car, particularly given its exceptionally clean record with the NHTSA. Zero recalls and zero complaints suggest strong initial build quality and fewer immediate ownership concerns than many rivals. Its 4.0-liter V8 engine, paired with an 8-speed automatic and all-wheel drive, delivers potent performance, though its 17 MPG combined rating means high fuel costs are a certainty. While official safety ratings are not yet available, the lack of reported issues is a significant positive for used car shoppers.

Critical Failure Risk

Leaks can develop from the transmission cooler lines or seals, potentially leading to low fluid levels and shifting issues. Regular inspection of the transmission pan and lines is advised.

Early detection can help you avoid a $600-$1,200 repair.
