Mercedes-Benz AMG GT 4-Door AMG GT 63 S E Performance 4Matic+ vs AMG GT 63 S E Performance 4Matic+ F1 Edition
Verdict
The RM30,000 step to the F1 Edition buys no listed gain in performance, safety or cabin equipment. Both use a 630 hp 3,982 cc twin-turbo V8 with two 204 hp motors, reach 100 km/h in 2.9 seconds and have just 12 km of EV range. They also share 21-inch Michelin Pilot Sport Cup 2 tyres, seven airbags and a 456-litre boot. For a Malaysian buyer, the regular AMG GT 63 S E Performance 4Matic+ is the rational choice unless the F1 Edition’s trim-specific appeal matters to you; check the final equipment list before signing.
Pick the Mercedes-Benz AMG GT 4-Door AMG GT 63 S E Performance 4Matic+ if you want the same 630 hp, 2.9-second 0-100 km/h performance and listed equipment while keeping RM30,000 in hand.
Pick the Mercedes-Benz AMG GT 4-Door AMG GT 63 S E Performance 4Matic+ F1 Edition if the F1 Edition designation is worth RM30,000 to you despite no listed mechanical, safety or convenience advantage.
