As the latest entry in Mercedes’ exciting lineage of sports cars, this Mercedes Benz GT Roadster for sale continues to display the German automaker’s prowess through performance and luxury.
Under the hood sits one of Mercedes’ most powerful engines. From its twin-turbocharged 4.0L V8, the GT Roadster can output 469 horsepower and 465 lb-ft of torque. The design and tune of the engine allow for a great deal of power throughout the rev range. Directing power is a seven-speed dual-clutch automatic transmission. While the car can put you in the correct gear, a pair of paddle shifters is also available.
Altogether, the GT Roadster for sale can hit 60 mph in less than 3.8 seconds and continue to an impressive 188 mph top speed.
During the design process, the handling characteristics of this sports car were seriously taken into account. The entire lightweight space frame chassis of the GT Roadster is made up of an intelligent mix of materials, including aluminum and magnesium, to keep the body light but rigid. The suspension components are made of forged aluminum to reduce the unsprung mass resulting in more incredible performance throughout each corner.
Taking a feature from the more race-oriented Mercedes GT-R, the GT Roadster inherits an active air management system. Vertical louvers are located at the bottom of the car’s face. These louvers are closed to maintain aerodynamic performance when engine use is regular. However, when the engine demands more cooling, these louvers can open up to allow air to reach a host of heat exchangers.
INTERIOR –
Inside, you can expect the same great Mercedes interior quality but with a more sport-oriented flavor. Mercedes states that its interior is meant to emphasize the car’s width and create the impression of a powerful wing. The proportions of the interior, combined with the heavily bolstered low-lying seats, help one feel more secure in the cockpit.
Looking around the interior, you will see no shortage of plush leather and milled aluminum pieces providing a sporty contrast. As you grip the large sports steering wheel, you will notice the beautiful 12.3-inch digital gauge cluster sitting behind. Depending on your drive mode, this gauge cluster will appear differently. It can also be configured to your liking.
To the right of the gauge cluster, at the top of the center console, is the GT Roadster’s 10.3-inch infotainment screen. Handling music, navigation, and anything else you can think of, the system is compatible with both Apple CarPlay and Android Auto.
EXTERIOR
As the successor to the SLS AMG, which itself was a spiritual successor to the 300SL, this Mercedes Benz GT Roadster for sale has a lot to live up to design-wise.
Not only is this roadster more powerful, but it does well with meeting design expectations. The front features a large bold grille illustrating the engine’s cooling needs. A long hood that ends in a slim windshield is another hallmark of the 300SL look. The sports car features plenty of bold body creases to draw eyes throughout the car. It, however, stays away from being too angular, allowing for many curvy body panels around the car.
The standout exterior feature of the GT Roadster is, of course, its foldable roof. Mercedes is not one to compromise its on-road performance. As such, the structure of the fabric top is made up of magnesium, steel, and aluminum to keep the center of gravity low. At the touch of a button, the top can deploy or hide away in 11 seconds. This action can be performed while the car is moving at low speed and doesn’t require you to be parked.
Any convertible is a perfect car for Miami weather, but this Mercedes Benz GT Roadster for sale offers it all. Looks, performance, and comfort are all in a neat package that can be driven with the top down.
