Mercedes-AMG unveils 'F1' movie inspired GT 63 APXGP Edition

The car will have a limited production run of only 52 units.

Mercedes-AMG has launched the GT APXGT Edition to mark the release of the upcoming Formula 1 film starring Brad Pitt. The car will have a limited production run of only 52 units.

The AMG GT APXGT Edition takes styling cues from the fictional APXGP F1 team featured in the movie. The car features a matt black exterior finish with gold livery. The front grille gets a gold outline. On the side it gets gold stripes running across the doors and fenders. Towards the rear, it gets a mix of black and grey patterns in the paintwork. Additionally, you get 21-inch alloy wheels finished in gold.

The APXGP Edition also includes the AMG Exterior Carbon Fiber package and the AMG Aerodynamics package, which adds a fixed rear wing. There’s also the AMG Night Package II, giving you more black accents.

The APXGP theme continues on the inside as well. The AMG Performance seats are upholstered in black Nappa leather/MICROCUT microfibre and customised with gold-coloured topstitching. There are gold elements on the steering wheel. Gold stitching can also be found on the door panels, instrument panel and centre console. The MANUFAKTUR door sill trims with AMG lettering are anodised in black and illuminated in gold. The AMG floor mats in black velour have a leather patch embroidered with the “APXGP” logo in race gold. It also gets a 15-speaker Burmester sound system and front lift for the front axle.

The “Limited Edition 1 of 52” badge in the centre console indicates the limited edition of the special model.

Based on the GT 63 2+2 coupe, power comes from a 4.0-litre biturbo V8 engine developing 577 BHP and features the 4-Matic all-wheel drive system.

Each customer will receive a customised, edition-specific AMG Indoor Car Cover for this limited edition model.

Mercedes-AMG has been a key part of the film’s production. AMG supported the film crew with F1 team know-how as well as performance vehicles and sports car models from its current portfolio. Off the racetrack, an SL, a G-class and a GT are featured on screen. The Mercedes‑AMG Official FIA F1 Safety Car and Medical Car were also provided for use in the movie, in action.

F1 releases in North America on June 27, 2025, and internationally beginning on June 25, 2025.
