A harder, faster, angrier version of AMG’s hard, fast and angry GT will be revealed at the LA Auto Show, with the brand to unveil a limited-edition AMG GT R Pro.

The entire AMG GT range is being updated, but the GT R Pro will sit at the very top of the family, being the most performance-focused version to date.

While details remain scarce, this is the “Club Sport” variant vehicle that AMG boss Tobias Moers has been promising. The brand says the Pro has been “modified in numerous details” that have been inspired by its GT3 and GT4 race cars.

The idea, Moers has said, is to take the fight to the Porsche GT3 RS with an AMG GT version that is both lighter and more powerful than any that have come before it. As such, expect a power increase, with reports suggesting outputs of around 442kW, up from the current GT R’s 430kW.

The rest of GT range have been tweaked inside and out too, and all will make their debut at LA Show, which kicks off next week.
