More pics and information here:

Don't get me wrong, I love the G65 and it is the one I'd take over pretty much any other car in its class; but at this price there are some omissions that are hard to ignore. At the top of my list are:

Remote start / keyless go
Lack of state of art nav / command / high end audio options
Cup holder(s)
Still left with many flimsy trim pieces

The sound of the V12 would probably make all of those irrelavent but for someone that uses the G as a daily driver I don't think I could justify the price considering a tune to the G63 can get you pretty close to the power of the stock V12 and nothing else really seperates this G65 other than these new wheels, of which I'm not particularly a fan.

Oh but the sound of that V12......

At $217k it's a steal next to price in Germany which is around 260k Euro.

Hideous chrome wheels and front grill. It's missing low profile tires and it's a complete circus.

The G class is turning to a guetto-fabulous vehicle.
