G60?!

I saw someone going down the road in a "G60." Are they even planning on making one? He had a "///AMG" strip on the left and right side of the hood and some weird license plate saying "DA <number>"

Ah well, I guess it's not as bad as what I saw 10 minutes before: a C-class badged "CLK320 Kompressor" Now that takes the cake!

AMG has dropped the V12 in there before. I think Brabus will put a bored V12 in the G and badge it G65. Could be legit - good be creative use of numbers. If I had one I would de-badge it completly.

AMG has built a handful of G63 AMG using the previous generation V12 engine (non-turbo), but no G60 that I know of. The new bi-turbo V12 is not available for the G-Class from AMG, but Brabus will sell you a GV12 bi-turbo for a cool $200k.
