Allocation Secured. Need Some Help With Options...

Hi All,

It took a lot of work but I was able to secure an allocation with an optimistic delivery time in August of this year. Hoping it might be a 2024 model but it is anyones guess.

Looking at the different options available, I have some pretty specific questions:

1. AMG Night Package Plus- What exactly is the "black underguard"?
2. AMG Trail Package- Is there a noticeable "AMG Ride Control" recalibration for this package where it rides better on road? Is the ride quality better because of the smaller diameter wheels or the actual suspension?
3. Exclusive Interior Package Plus/ G Manufaktur Interior Package Plus- If I do not get either one of these packages dependent on exterior color, do the actual shape or type of seats change? I know there is fancier stitching with these packages...

Thanks All.

Just take a look in the Order Guide

Attaching the Dealers Order Guide, where you can see and read about any available options for the car.
The under guard if I'm not wrong, is the "bull bar" at the front of the car, like a metal frame on the lower bumper in the g63 and on the grill and headlights in the 550

If you have an allocation, it's for a 23 not a 24.
The underguard is shielding for the underbody.
Ride control doesn't make it softer. The smaller wheels and bigger sidewall tires will help
No change to seat type. Different leather plus the stitching.

I know it is a 2023 allocation. I'm hoping there is some kind of delay and pushes it into a 2024 model.

If you have a PO number you are getting a 23 regardless.
