Updated from the NZTA Motor Vehicle Register, counted as at 31 August 2026. Recounted every month.
AMG's first car designed from scratch, launched in 2010 as a modern echo of the 300SL Gullwing, complete with roof-hinged doors. Behind its very long bonnet sits a 6.2-litre V8 without turbochargers, driving a gearbox at the rear. A roadster with ordinary doors followed, and a hard-edged Black Series arrived before production ended in 2014.
