Ultra-Rare Amateur Race Cars

The Mercedes-AMG GT3 Edition 50 is Limited to Just 5 Units

— May 31, 2017 — Autos
The Mercedes-AMG GT3 Edition 50 is an ultra-rare two-door designed to celebrate the automaker's success on the track. The car, built for GT3 racing, is limited to just five units. Each of those five comes with a special shade of black never before applied to an AMG car. There are also numerous badges that celebrate 50 years of AMG. These include a hood emblem which says "50 Years AMG" and print on the doors and seat belts that reads "“50 Years of Driving Performance."

Performance modifications for the AMG GT3 Edition 50 are limited and include a new performance exhaust system. There's also a carbon fiber safety cell to ensure the safety of the driver on race day. No word was given on the price of this car, but given its rarity it'll likely be pricey.
