Goodbye 2019 G-550...Hello 2021 G-63...thoughts

Always enjoyed driving the G550 for the past 2 years.




But the new G-63 the experience is AWESOME!!!! This new G-63 is a BEAST. Anyone else out there gone from 2019 (+) G-550 to G-63 and your thoughts?

Mine is on order, coming out of a 20 G550.
Can’t wait!

And, Congratulations, she’s beautiful!

I'm getting close to the end of the 1,000 mile break-in period. Looking forward to unleashing the sport plus mode. On a side note, the new 2021 G-63 does ride much stiffer / rougher than the 2019 G-550. Anyone know if this is from the different AMG suspension or more likely the larger 22" wheels with lower profile tire vs the 20" wheels and higher profile tires on the G-550?

Probably a combination of the two. You might try running a little less tire pressure and see if it helps. Do you notice it being more stiff in comfort mode, or only when you switch to Sport+?

I’ll try reducing the tire pressure a little. Thanks for the suggestion.
