One of RM Sotheby’s May Sealed Bid sale lots is this rarest of rare AMG ONE. This particular example manages to sit at the pinnacle of rarity while adding a specification that makes it stand apart even among the model’s already microscopic production run.

This 2024 AMG ONE is finished in special-order “Sonderlackierung” Reingrün, a vivid deep green paint said to have cost its original owner €27,500 alone. Against a plethora of silver, black and gray AMG ONE builds referencing Mercedes-AMG Petronas Formula 1 colors, this example takes a decidedly different direction. Matte black magnesium wheels and gloss black brake calipers further darken the specification, while the cabin pairs Magma Grey Exclusive Nappa leather with contrasting Digitalgrün stitching that subtly echoes the exterior finish.

Limited to just 275 examples worldwide, the AMG ONE represents Mercedes-AMG’s attempt to adapt contemporary Formula 1 hybrid powertrain technology into a road-legal production car. At its heart is a turbocharged 1.6-liter hybrid V6 derived directly from the Mercedes-AMG F1 W07 race car piloted by Lewis Hamilton and Nico Rosberg during the team’s dominant 2016 championship season. Combined with four electric motors including MGU-H and MGU-K systems adapted from Formula 1, total output reaches 1,063 horsepower.

Performance remains staggering even several years after the car’s delayed arrival to customers. Mercedes-AMG quotes 0-100 km/h in 2.9 seconds and a 352 km/h (219 mph) top speed, while the car also currently holds the Nürburgring Nordschleife production-car lap record thanks to a 6:29.090 lap set by AMG factory driver Maro Engel in full “Strat 2” qualifying mode.

This specimen has covered just 185 km (115 miles) from new, reportedly all accumulated during factory testing. It remains effectively delivery mileage and recently received its major “Service A” from Mercedes-AMG in February 2026 — notably costing more than €37,000 and extending the factory warranty through 2028.

The AMG ONE’s development story has already become modern automotive folklore. First revealed in concept form back in 2017, Mercedes-AMG spent years wrestling with the challenge of making an F1-derived hybrid powertrain survive emissions compliance, cold starts and ordinary road use. Pandemic delays and supply-chain issues only prolonged the process before production finally began in 2022 during AMG’s 55th anniversary year.

What makes this particular car especially compelling is how far it strays from the expected specification formula. The Reingrün finish transforms the ONE from a technological showcase into something far more extroverted and almost vintage motorsport-adjacent in personality. In some lighting, the shade feels reminiscent of historic German racing greens. In others, it reads more like a modern reinterpretation of AMG’s own Green Hell Magno palette associated with Affalterbach’s Nürburgring-era road cars.

Either way, in a world where most AMG ONEs appear configured for anonymity, this one decidedly is not.
