While studying traditional news journalism in college, Jake realized he was smitten by all things automotive and wound up with an internship at Car and Driver. That led to a career writing news, review and feature stories about all things automotive at Automobile Magazine, most recently at Motor1. When he's not driving, fixing or talking about cars, he's most often found on a bicycle.

This model is the limited-edition GT R Pro, which takes the already hardcore GT R and makes it even more track-focused.

All AMG GT models use a 4.0-liter, twin-turbocharged V8, with different states of tune depending on model.

The GT R Pro gets a unique exterior wrap. But don't worry, you can order yours without it.
