Big day has finally arrived!
Picked up this beauty this evening and brought her home.
Will be keeping her stored until spring, and then wrapping her in XPel Stealth as soon as the snow melts.
Only drove her for 15 mins home, but she sounds sooooo good!
Can’t wait for spring!
Big thanks to the exceptional team at Downtown Mercedes Benz in Ottawa for an amazing first Mercedes experience.
Looks good! That's cool in Canada you can get the magno night package for the spare tire and bumper trim pieces without needing to get the black on the fender flares.
Agreed!
Picked the colour based on photos only, and I can say I was pleasantly surprised how much better the Dark Olive Magno looks in person - photos don’t accurately capture what a perfect military-esq tone the paint has.
I love it!!!
Unlike Europe Canada has the option but it’s like 1500 or so?
I go back and forth on which look I like better. Decided to leave the bar on because it would be a pain to store elsewhere and differentiates a new G63 from all other G Classes.

I thought it was against the Law in the EU and Canada?
Correct. In Canada we have the brush bar as a stand-alone $1500 option.
Likewise, I went back and forth on this option but decided while the vehicle has a certain duality (off-road capability and refined performance), the intent of the brush bar was far too juxtaposed with the 22” wheels and low profile performance tires.
Now if I’m fortunate enough to find myself in a position to order the next Gen 4x4 Squared, I’m checking all the off-road specific options.
Brush bars all around!!
congrats. grt color choice! but why wait for spring? its a truck... get her dirty! very surprised how well my 63 handled the snow here in the east coast. No need to store a G wagon, it thrives in bad weather.

Fair comment!
Combo of reasons to wait until spring;
•haven’t yet sourced a set of factory 21” wheels to wrap with dedicated snow tires.
•shopping for winter mats (OEM vs Weathertech, etc.)
•want PPF installed before vehicle is used and still shopping local installers
•have 3 other 4WD’s in the stable
•OCD

extremely valid points... maybe this helps a bit. i have oem mats and love them. feel they look better then weather tech and they are OEM with the cool G logos everywhere!!! . on rims, try trail package rims. i have them and love the design especially with your color exterior, the mat black rims would look hot.

thanks for the feedback re: mats. I also like the idea of wrapping a set of the 20” Trail rims in a tall sidewalk snow tire.
Will see if my dealer can source them for me.
also, there are two different options for the boot/trunk mat. I’ll dig up the links if you are looking to also cover the trunk area.
thanks for the link!
Deciding between OEM vs Weathertech, which essentially comes down to form vs function.
I checked the box during order for a factory rear rubber trunk liner, so ideally the floor mats would match.
Snapped a few pics this evening of the factory trunk liner/mat, including the part number stamped on the underside.
Relatively basic mat, but fits perfectly and looks factory (which I personally like).

Trunk mat was a factory ordered stand-alone option ($150).
vehicle came with carpeted floor mats in first and second row.
I’ve since purchased from a Forum member (Montreal Red) OEM all weather mats that match the trunk mat, as well WeatherTech mats for 1st and 2nd row.
Will upload pictures once installed (vehicle in storage until spring).
Consider Clearplex (or equivalent) windshield film. Seriously, you won't regret it. I'm also OCD
