AMG GT3 Grey

Number Five AMG GT3 Grey

The AMG GT3 Grey shade aims at the darker graphite tone worn by the presentation form of the brand's racing coupe. It is neither a light gray close to silver nor an anthracite sliding toward black, but a mid-dark position on which the shapes of the body are visible even without liveries.

The car behind the shade

The Mercedes-AMG GT3 entered the brand's customer program as the successor to the older SLS AMG GT3. It is based on the AMG GT sports coupe, where the V8 sits back behind the front axle and the gearbox is mounted at the rear by the driven axle. It races in series written to the rules of the GT3 class, from twenty-four-hour endurance races to short sprints, and it is among the most widespread machines of its class. The gray form appears on cars without a sponsor livery, where it tends to be complemented by black and silver items. A gray surface moreover takes additional shading well, which is what brings out the edges on a model.

Where the gray is used

• Bodies of customer cars of the GT3 class
• The presentation form without sponsor liveries
• Diffusers, covers and the lower parts of a body
• A dark ground under bold color liveries

Who the shade serves

It suits builders of modern circuit cars who need one dark gray for a large surface and want to avoid mixing from black and white. It will also be used on cars of other brands where a body is meant to hold a neutral dark tone. The subject is a presentation car without a livery, where the gray sits next to a black diffuser, carbon items and openings into the interior, so the surface never stays uniform.
