Manual Mercedes-Benz AMG ‘Hammer’ Duo | Amelia Island Auctions 2025 GoodingChristies 2025-01-30 | Founded in 1967, the AMG brand has become synonymous with automotive excellence, specializing in high-performance versions of Mercedes-Benz production cars. In the mid-1980s, AMG developed its own DOHC, four-valve-per-cylinder head for the M117 engine, paving the way for its most iconic model: the venerable Hammer. Offered in 5.6- and 6.0-liter variants producing between 355 and 375 hp, the Hammer would go down in history as one of the fastest road-going automobiles ever built. Its unrivaled success as a performance powerhouse laid the groundwork for AMG’s eventual merger with Mercedes-Benz, captivating enthusiastic customers around the world – such as Raul Gardini, the infamous Italian industrialist who originally commissioned the pair of bespoke, manual gearbox-equipped AMG Hammers offered here: a 1989 Mercedes-Benz AMG 300 CE 6.0 ‘Hammer’ and a 1988 Mercedes-Benz AMG 300 E 6.0 ‘Hammer’. Gooding Christie’s is honored to present this exceptional pair, among the finest, pre-merger AMG machines and assuredly among the most important Hammers ever built, at Amelia Island this March.
