BTW, I saw a teenage girl drive a G63 to her high school field hockey practice on Friday. I’m not sure what’s worse: The G is the vehicle of choice for 16 year old girls or the fact that there’s going to be two G’s in our little one stop light town. Well, at least I still have the only M6 vert in town.

2018 G63 AMG x2, 2017 BMW M6
Maybe it’s placed higher due to the deeper fording depth of the ‘19s.

....and the wading depth of the 18 and 19 Gs, are nearly identical
We have a '17 BMW M6 convertible, and we love it!!!!

Build 2019 G-Class SUV on MBusa Website Question
Does anyone know when the build your G-Class SUV will change on the mbusa website. I don't think it you build one using the 2018 model that you receive that model year vehicle now. Why don't they have the 2019 available to build yet?
I want to build a 2019 and see what packages and options are avialable.

The G Class is non-core business for MBUSA hence the lack of proper maintainance and focus. They don’t even have a price for the G63 while Europe, Canada and basically everybody has had a price for several months.

‘13 911-4S, ‘21 CTR, '22 GT4, ‘19 G63
hmm..not sure if that’s the reason. JLR had a same issue for ‘17 range rovers. It took forever to get configurator updates while it was everywhere else in Europe etc. It didn’t get updated until we start seeing first ones getting delivered. I think it has to do with the US regulatory compliance which takes a long time..I’m just not sure why we are always behind

Haven't read through this in a while but if you're looking for an answer, base price is $124,500.
That info has been out since the end of July, not sure why there's still like 9 pages to this thread.
G63 is still showing TBD.

Because people are wondering what is MBUSA’s problem with the G63 price? Are they concerned about pricing it too low? There a lot of speculative/‘fake’ orders in the system ...

I'd also like to get a better understanding of the differences between the new G550 and G63 before deciding. In the 2018 and older versions, the main differences were availability of the better seats, the bigger engine, different suspension tuning, and different brakes. The other differences were, at least from my perspective, relatively minor.
With the redesign, it looks like all of the seat options that are available on the G63 are available on the G550, so that's one less reason (for me) to get a G63. The bigger engine is nice, but not something I feel I absolutely have to have. The suspension tuning differences were a big surprise for me when I traded my 2016 G550 in for my 2017 G63. At least for on road driving, the G63 suspension is a huge improvement IMHO. So I guess for me, it comes down to the suspension tuning differences and any other differences that may not be obvious. I'm not so concerned with the AMG exterior cosmetic styling differences (such as the different bumpers and bull bars).

'19 G63 Ed 1,'18 M5, '16 G63,'12 458 , '11 E63, Brabus SL55-K8, '10 S63, '94 E500 "Wolf", '91 560SEC
Personally, I'm more concerned about them pricing the G63 too high. I'm not going to add my name to the ordering queue until I know what the MSRP will be, fully understanding that I will most likely have to wait a while to get one as a result. But my 2017 G63 is doing just fine, so there's no big rush for me to be the first to get a new style G550 or G63.

Mine is supposed to go in production this week. I would hope Mercedes keeps the MSRP near same on the G63. It essentially is the same vehicle. Brakes, side exhaust, cosmetics are nominal costs. Power comes from increased boost. If marketing is accurate, AMG played a large in developing the new G.
