Are collectible cars your thing? Look no further than this Mercedes-AMG GT Black Series P One Edition if money is the least of your concerns, as chances are you don't have it. After all, only 235 copies saw the light of day, out of which 24 are understood to have been shipped to the United States.
Based on the previous generation Mercedes-AMG GT, as there is an entirely new one out in case you forgot, the Black Series P One Edition debuted over three years ago, shortly after the normal Black Series was shown to the world.

Featuring an F1-inspired livery, it was only available to those who placed an order for the Mercedes-AMG One hypercar, hence its new given name. This copy has a silver finish that gradually turns black at the rear, the typical three-pointed star design, some turquoise accents on the lower parts of the body and wheels, and a few other things, including that massive wing out back. The interior has black leather with turquoise accents and a whole lot of carbon fiber, joined by the usual gear.

Powering it is the same engine found under the hood of the regular Black Series model, namely the ubiquitous 4.0-liter bi-turbo V8. The mill generates 720 hp (730 ps/537 kW) and 590 lb-ft (800 Nm) of torque, with a seven-speed dual-clutch automatic transmission directing the thrust to the rear wheels. The Mercedes-AMG GT Black Series takes 3.2 seconds to 62 mph (100 kph), less than 9 seconds to 124 mph (200 kph), and has a 202 mph (325 kph) top speed, regardless if it is the normal or the P One Edition version.

With only 69 miles (111 km) under its belt, you are looking at a brand-new supercar and a collectible, for that matter, given the low production number. It is advertised by Mecum, which will try and find a new home for it during their Kissimmee auction that will be hosted between January 2 and 14, 2024, in Florida, at the Osceola Heritage Park, where it will shine alongside many other vehicles, some more affordable than others.

But there is nothing affordable about the Mercedes-AMG GT Black Series P One Edition, as even if the auction house hasn't released an estimated selling price, we all know this model costs more than the proverbial arm and leg. You'll have to throw in some organs to afford it, as it is usually valued at well over half a million dollars. In fact, RMSothebys recently sold one with 32 miles (51 km) on the clock for $775,000, and we think this one will fetch a similar sum. But do you think it's worth it when you could buy a faster supercar for a whole lot less?
