The new Mercedes-AMG GT Black Series has the same stretched-out grille as the AMG GT3. Look into this void and despair:

I didn’t believe that Mercedes would have the balls to use the GT3 body on the black series, but I was wanting it to happen from day one. So, yes, I want it.

I got the windblown-Clarkson vibes at first but it’s definitely grown on me. It’s taken more cues from the original Vision GT concept, which is very good:

The Black Series might actually look good with a chrome wrap.

Some day these grilles will look so horrendously dated. There is nothing classic or compelling or functional about them at all, and eventually it’ll just look like rubber bumpers or fold down headlights or take your pick of other things. If the country ends up in a 2008 style recession, people won’t want to pay for this shit either.

Its a big grille, but at least it works reasonably  well with the design and appears to be functional, unlike the new 4 Series grille, which is largely blocked-off.
