There are some things in life that really are just worth the wait. When you’re a kid, the month leading up to any one of the more famous gift-giving winter holidays drags on until you finally receive that toy you’d been waiting on forever. All it takes is one trailer to get us excited about forthcoming movies, many of which are as awesome as we had hoped, and those of us who waited our entire lives to find the ideal spouse certainly can attest that love is something with worth waiting for, too.
Great new cars, though, at least for your Florida Mercedes dealer, are the ultimate test of patience, and few are generating more excitement among Lakeland, FL Mercedes-Benz fans than the forthcoming 2017 Mercedes-AMG® GT R, an even stronger version of the AMG® GT that also features a redesigned chassis, a wider body and upgraded front and back ends.
The most notable improvements come under the hood, as this iteration of the vehicle receives an upgraded twin-turbo 4.0-liter V8 engine capable of producing a whopping 550 hp. Even more exciting is the expectation that future special editions of the Mercedes-AMG® GT R could very well exceed 600 hp, so this is without question one of the most fun automobiles this particular marque has ever produced.
And frankly, it’s that performance and those gorgeous aesthetics that make it one of the most hotly-anticipated new models of the year. So much so, in fact, that Car and Driver Magazine recently included the model on their annual list of “25 Cars Worth Waiting For.”
We’re so excited to see it added to the stable in the very near future, and we agree whole-heartedly that it will be worth the wait. Stop by Fields Motorcars for more information or to test drive one of our available 2016 Mercedes-Benz cars!
