The New Luxury on Wheels Inspired by Brad Pitt’s F1
Where speed and elegance converge, the new Mercedes-AMG GT 63 “APXGP Edition” arrives as an automotive masterwork — a tribute to cinema and to Formula 1 in equal measure. Limited to just 52 examples, this striking coupé commands attention not only for its design but for the visceral excitement it evokes around Brad Pitt’s eagerly anticipated film F1.
As Mercedes-Benz continues to consolidate its standing at the pinnacle of motorsport, its collaboration with the film promises to elevate the driving experience to an entirely new register. The marque has set out to create far more than a vehicle — it has designed a statement piece that embodies a way of life, a celebration of the engine and the adrenaline that define Formula 1. “F1 brilliantly blends the fictional APXGP team with real Formula 1,” noted Michael Schiebe, Chairman of Mercedes-AMG, underscoring the seamless fusion of fiction and reality that this edition represents.
On the technical front, the Mercedes-AMG GT 63 “APXGP Edition” is powered by a 4.0-liter twin-turbocharged V-8 producing 577 horsepower. While its output figures may not represent the outer limits of the AMG range, the true distinction of this car lies in its meticulously crafted aesthetic details. The coupé wears a dark APXGP livery across its bodywork and is further distinguished by the signature Race Gold colorway — applied to the grille surround, fender vents, and 21-inch wheels alike.
The interior is equally uncompromising: a Burmester audio system fills the cabin with concert-hall presence, while the AMG Track Pace system meticulously records performance data during circuit sessions, delivering a fully immersive driving experience.
Produced by Apple Original Films, F1 goes beyond the spectacle of motorsport competition to offer an intimate look at life behind the wheel — where adrenaline collides with human drama under the most unrelenting pressure imaginable. The story centers on Sonny Hayes, a young driver determined to carve out his place among the sport’s elite, confronting challenges both on the circuit and off.
Acclaimed Formula 1 drivers, including George Russell, have praised the GT 63 as a nimble, responsive machine — equally thrilling on track and on open road.
With the film set to premiere on June 25, F1 will not only captivate motorsport enthusiasts worldwide but will also allow Mercedes-AMG to reaffirm its position at the vanguard of automotive innovation and elegance. The Mercedes-AMG GT 63 “APXGP Edition” is, without question, a defining symbol of this new era of luxury and performance — an invitation to dream of asphalt, speed, and everything that lies beyond the apex.
