From superminis to supercars, this year has seen the introduction of some fantastic new motors, reports Nat Barnes
MERCEDES AMG GT ROADSTER PRICE: est from US$135,000 With all the sharp edges of a ten-minute-old sherbet lemon, the curvy Mercedes AMG GT Coupé might not be to everyone’s liking, but this new Roadster version is nothing short of gorgeous. Losing the roof gives the AMG GT an entirely different look, which we actually prefer to its coupé sister.
Under the bonnet is the same twin-turbo 4.0-litre V8 engine, available in standard 476bhp or full-on bonkers 557bhp form. The latter is capable of the 0 to 60mph sprint in an eye-watering 3.7 seconds and on to a toupée-tugging 196mph top speed. The faint-hearted needn’t apply.
