Dang, that is a pretty rad color I have to admit; reminds me of a Porsche color from years back! But the name Arabian just seems like an odd name LOL. How do the Arab's feel about that I wonder haha

I was lucky enough to switch my exterior color To Arabian Grey from my original choice.

I can't wait since this is the best looking grey there is, I love it on Audi's with their Nardo Grey which is basically the same thing

And we will gladly charge you an additional 25-50K as “market adjustment” even if you order one at MSRP in contract....because we are car salesmen and we have no morals or business ethics...anyone reading this do yourselves a favor and order your g wagon outside of SoCal and wait 4-6 moths and get one at MSRP.....Cheers

I have an Arabian Grey G63 on order, should deliver around March.

Also considered Platinum Magno, and while I really like the color, I didn’t want to have to deal with the maintenance and particulars for care of the paint.

if you don’t mind waiting, MB Manhattan is a corporate store, they don’t charge Mark up whatsoever, and if they have some orders that buyers backed out. People waiting in line could have it at MSRP. All other dealerships selling new G63 in the lot or showroom for mark up.

Is this an actual colour option for 2021?
I can’t see it anywhere.
It’s kind of like a Chalk from Porsche or Nardo grey from Audi.
I absolutely love it and have a Feb prob in Dark Olive Magno and would switch it to this.
Can someone confirm that it’s an option for 2021.

Wow! Need to call my dealer first thing tomorrow.
Just hope it’s available in Canada.
Do you mind telling me what the price was and if you by any chance have the colour code?
Thanks!

So I confirmed with my dealer that it’s available.
Colour code is indeed 124 though it’s not called Arabian Grey in Canada and I suspect the US as well.
It’s called Classic Grey.
Now the decision must be made.. Do I switch from Dark Olive Magno to this.
So hard to do! I’d say I’m 90% sure I’m switching but man I wish I could see both in person.

Nice!

On my build sheet it's called G manufaktor Arabian Grey. Wouldn't surprise me if it's called other colors in different countries.

I actually changed from Olive Magno Matte too, don't want to have to bother with the matte finish and if it gets a scratch, seems like a hassle.
