    Mercedes-AMG GT Black Series To Pack 710 HP (530 kW)

    The folks over at Double Apex were the first to share the power output of the then-unreleased Mercedes-AMG A 45 S and now they have learned from the very same sources how much grunt the long-awaited Mercedes-AMG GT Black Series will have.

    Many test mules have been spied over the last few months so it is no secret anymore and since we know it will sport serious GT3-inspired aero we want to know what will be under that long hood.

    According to the publication, you will find a twin-turbo V8 which is not all that surprising but this particular engine is not related to any other of the ones used in current AMG models. While the block and heads are shared, rumour has it that Mercedes has moved away from its “hot-vee” set-up that places the turbochargers within the V of the block. This all makes sense considering Tobias Moers mentioned that the Black Series would feature an ‘all-new’ engine.

    This V8 will deliver a whopping 710 hp (530 kW) and 800 Nm all sent to the rear wheels via a dual-clutch transmission. We are expecting a 0 to 100 km/h sprint in under three seconds and a top speed over 320 km/h.

    If this power output is indeed accurate, Mercedes-AMG is showing clear intentions that they are targeting the likes of the Ferrari 488 Pista and Porsche 911 GT2 RS.

    We are hoping to see the return of the Black Series badge at the Geneva Motor Show in March.

    • We waited a fair bit for the Tiguan R to arrive but that means it has been given enough thought and executed with the sort of German precision that makes us happy to have waited.

As fast SUVs go it’s a cracker, and with a price tag starting from R1,014,900 it is actually decent value in the segment.

It’s fun, aggressive when you want it to be and remarkably civilised when you don’t. Cars like this rarely make sense, but the Tiguan R is one case where that argument starts to change one's mind.

We cannot wait to drive the matching Golf next week!

    • The very first SA-spec BMW M2 snapped at BMW HQ in Midrand.

Zandvoort Blue would not be our choice but the looks have certainly grown on us. What about all of you?

    • If you’re expecting a faster, angrier and more focused version of the original 86, you’re going to be happy with this car.

Toyota finally gave the 86 more power. It’s not take-your-breath-away power, but again, it’s not made to win drag races. If you want more power, get a Supra.

Sure it is a bit more pricey this time around but it is a no-regrets kind of car that you will enjoy just as much today as 10 years from now.

Long live the manual transmission, especially when it’s packaged within something as fun as the Toyota GR86.
