It is still nice to have this forum to talk about it, there is no other way to know. There was a recent AMG event for dealers this week and they drove the G63, MB increased advertisement of the car through social media as well, the car is coming soon but this has been frustrating knowing that my car has been in VPC for 3 months.
I am still happy that I traded in my 2015 G63 1 year ago, would have lost 30k if I kept since value dropped and the car would have been 4 yrs old next year. |

No official release they blame all their delays on certification and blame transport Canada on being slow to release the holds. But in my head if they know for a fact that this is only going to be released in January why the f not just tell the customer I had to reschedule 2 trips because I was going on the word of my dealership. I’m beyond frustrated and not because I’m obnoxious and want my car now, but because when people set your expectations for something and you plan your life accordingly and it changes it just sucks |
Has anyone placed an order for the G63 with the exclusive interior package plus (418) and got the all black leather steering wheel (VL9)? My SA was configuring my build and said the all leather steering wheel wasn't an option with the exclusive interior package plus so I'm likely going to get the leather/dinamica steering wheel. Seems strange though and I'd prefer the all leather version.

I believe it can be ordered, that's a screenshot from the Canadian site.

Scroll down then select the country that you want to configure your car in and enjoy: That link for the Canadian site which is very close to the US besides the prices: https://www.mercedes-benz.ca/en/vehi...ld/g-class/suv That link for the Canadian site which is very close to the US besides the prices: https://www.mercedes-benz.ca/en/vehi...ld/g-class/suv https://cimg3.ibsrv.net/gimg/www.mbw...266e28b07d.png |

Crazy how much cheaper the G63 is in Canada then the US...They are selling in Canada for $167,000 in CDN dollars, $124,500 in US (if you purchased the truck in Canada with US dollars). I don’t believe the US pricing for G63 will be anywhere close to the $125 k US. |

A friend who does sales at a MB dealer in BC has roughly 75 people on his waitlist for G63s waiting for someone to drop their order. They sold out faster then concert tickets in Canada.

I'm not sure how many of these people on the waitlist will actually be a buyer though. Lots of things change and there's already been people at my particular dealer passing.

Is it odd you can not add the 22" wheel in black AND the AMG Night Package? If you select the AMG N. P. you can only select 21" wheels.
I'd like to order the Night package with those 22-inch AMG cross-spoke, in black. I have them on my GLE63 (non-coupe) and love them. Will this change for the US market? https://cimg9.ibsrv.net/gimg/www.mbw...431e0b898f.png |

Thanks - I might be the odd ball I do not plan on getting the stitched seats. I prefer the more simple options in black or even black with the red accents. Ill opt for the comfort package separately PA9.
Well that is if I can fit car seats in the back for my twin boys... at all. |
I ordered the night package with the 22 inch AMG cross spoke in black...for some reason the online construction won’t allow both. My dealer confirmed the two packages have been added to my build and I should be getting the truck in the next 2~4 weeks depending when CANADA customs realises the G63. Hoping to get it for Christmas... not holding my breath. |

Anyone have their G63 in hand? They were released from port within the last few days and my dealer delivered the first one today.

If you're looking for a brand new 2019 G550 that is available right now, my dealer has one for sale! Pretty sure it was a deal that didn't go through. White exterior, tan interior. Send me your phone number and I can have the Sales Director at the dealership call you. Obviously, it won't last long. This just came available this afternoon. Price is below $140K.
|
If you're like me and hate the brush guard on the G550 and would prefer the lower bar, I just found this new part that popped up on Gwagenparts.com which converts the G550 bumper to that similar of the G63. It also allows you to convert the brush guard to the same style of the G63 (for less than $2500). https://www.gwagenparts.com/product/...mercedes-g550/
