My G is Finally Here! White on Black with Silver Ash Trim

After 3 years of waiting, my G550 finally arrived. I hadn’t seen the Silver Ash trim before ordering, but I’m happy with it.

It was worth the wait! What a machine!

I intend to take it on beach off road trails so the G550 is the best option.

Why didn’t you opt for a 63? I’m curious. You’ve stated in other threads that the engine is the same as the 63 but I haven’t found info on this.

Anyway, truck looks great and enjoy it in good health.

Well the silver was $500 extra. Not sure it was worth it over the no charge trim options, but it does look nice. I thought it would be more white then grey/silvery from the online configurator.

Thank you!
I posted in another thread that I really don’t see the point of the G63, other than showing off.
The nature of the G is a luxury off-road machine that can go (almost) anywhere. There’s nothing AMG about its DNA.
The fact that the engine is basically the same is a plus for the G550.
The 550’s narrower wheel wells, proper tires, etc all add up to a spec that the inventor of the G intended.
