GT1 sports car built in conjunction with AMG. Intended for racing in the new FIA GT Championship series in 1997, in which it was very successful. The road-legal homologated version was built at Affalterbach by AMG in collaboration with HWA. Many components of the road car were lifted directly from the racecar, including the suspension, the sequential transmission, and the carbon-fibre monocoque. Of the 28 produced, 2 were prototypes, 6 were roadsters, and 20 were coupés, like the model shown here.
