FIRST LOOK: Merc's 911-fighter

Mercedes-Benz gives us a sneak peek at the interior of its new roadster set to take on the Porsche 911 - the AMG GT.

First it was the baby SLS then it became the SLC, now Mercedes-Benz has given its smaller SLS AMG a final moniker - the AMG GT.

It's said to be the most "assertive and dynamic product yet" to make its way out of Affalterbach.

IMAGE GALLERY: 2014 Mercedes-Benz AMG GT (Interior)

Mercedes has released the first images of its AMG GT interior, showing an opulent,  leather-ensconced cabin. The centre console has been designed with an aviation theme, the gear shifter and Command centre adjuster inspired by a thrust lever from a jet plane.

Surrounding the lever are four buttons on either side in the shape of the cylinders of a V8 engine.

That's no mistake as Merc has said its AMG GT will be fitted with a V8 under the bonnet, though it hasn't confirmed specs yet.
