Mercedes G-Wagen - 2016 Introduces G500 w/ a New 4.0-liter Twin-Turbo V8 (416hp-450tq)

[rfx45]

I know it looks almost identical (I actually like it unchanged) minus the new LED but it has a new V12 engine and an updated interior, finally!

Beautiful car always have loved it, too bad they're shutting down production sooner or later.
That could climb up a wall.

Is the G65 going to be limited?

 

[mplsdunk]

finally re did the interior, the g's were old school as hell.

A G55/63/65 is my dream SUV.
Coming from a current AMG owner ('05 E55 AMG) I am more impressed when I see someone driving a G55 than any of the other high-end AMGs.
Seeing a SL65 or SLS is much more common here (in San Diego/SoCal) than seeing a G-AMG.

Though I did see a brand new matte white C63 Black Series coupe the other day, that was insane.

Never was a fan of supercars like Lambos and Ferraris, but this has been my dream car for years along with the Continental GT

Lol, MB beat out Bentley for producing the first truck with a V12...


But I really dont see the point of having an SUV with THAT much power... unless its the size of an Excursion and weight is a factor

 

[D StaXX]

That new interior.

They're shutting it down? Why?
I'm not sure if it is limited but they also have a G63 AMG with 544hp and 560lb-ft torque, which might be more widely available. The 2013 G-series comes out this August in the US.

These are my exact sentiments.

Except that Enzo.

v12

i understand if you have bread to afford this type of vehicle you dont care about gas, but still

 

[mplsdunk]

i want to see UGR twin turbo one...

 

[spacerace]

gorgeous.

 

[realrubirosa]

Was underwhelmed while scrolling down... until I saw the interior picture. Rugged plush sounds oxymoronic, but I think they accomplished it well.

 

[kookcle]

All blacked out one 

although I hate the delivery van look of the rear.
RFX45 you should start a Automotive thread since you always have these new car threads and updates

 

[typerpinoy]

mercedes interiors are better than anything else out there right now

 

[jrdnsrnss]

What a waste of fuel, if you want that much power and wanna go fast just get a dedicated sports car.

ya, about time.

at the V-12.  When was the last time they used one aside from the SLS (if the SLS even has one)?

 

[ins]

I hate the G wagon since you cant really stunt on everyone. You pull up to a light with a g wagon from the 90's and one today and they look just the same

V12 SUV!?

Should've integrated the screen onto the dash a better way. Looks like an ipad mounted there.

I envision rich folks in Dubai doing tricks in them.
