picked up new G

Just picked up my new 23 Moonlight White/Black Int G63 and i absolutely love it - so damn pretty and what can beat that MB leather smell - had to post the cheesy bow on the hood pic - goes in monday for full ppf/ceramic and tint
Wasn't diggin the wheels upon reservation (only thing on build i wasn't a fan of) but after seeing them live i like them alot as they are something different from the cross spoke -

i still can't fall in love with the new monoblock design

sadly - i've only driven the G 77 miles - just dropped off to get full paint correction, tint, and ppf applied - itll be better than new when done -

Congratulations @baldmike73 ! Looks great. I have a similar build on order. May I ask, which dealer you purchased from and where are you getting paint correction and PPF? Thank you.

i bought mine through Farmington MB in UT - John Moore was the sales guy - i met him at a AMG meet up when i first moved to UT 1.5 years ago when i just happened to be going into the dealership on a Saturday for something at the part counter.
Great guy - AMG and car enthusiast

Getting Paint Correction/PPF/Tint done at Lake City Wrap in West Valley - was referred to Ryan - he is a small indy shop who has a strong attention to detail and is a perfectionist - get the car back next week when i get back in town.

Thank you. Your location says San Jose, CA so I thought you had purchased from a Bay Area dealer. Again, congrats and enjoy the new ride.
