@eye.surgeon's preference for the lower profile G550 has its advantages.

A little more subtlety from the G550 versus the G63's "LOOK AT ME" and "LISTEN TO MY LOUD ENGINE WHETHER YOU LIKE IT OR NOT" attracts less aggression from crazies.

Nah, I doubt it. Only an actual owner of a G-class can readily distinguish the subtle exterior differences between a G550 and a G63. Most none G-owners just lump them in all together and refer to them as the "G-Wagon", all the while not understanding one is a Mercedes and another is an AMG.

There is nothing subtle about a G550 lol. Its loud and proud, even with a quiet exhaust. The stronger engine and exciting exhaust tone separates the men from the boys, not crazy vs sane.

@Risley , no offense was intended at all. G-Class is just cool and unique on its own and occupies a special niche in the SUV market, period. At a stoplight or if one drives past me, I can't even tell the difference between a G550 or G63 unless I actively search for the location of the bull bar or the exhaust. My point is that @ddatin 's comment about the "subtlety" of the G550 (along with his history of comments attempting to tear down the G63 and crying wolf about the drop of the G63 price) is baseless and untrue.

That sucks royally. I'm very sorry. I don't understand why so many people out there in the US do not comprehend or appreciate that most people who own nice things have made a lot of sacrifices and worked hard to obtain those nice things in life...

Now that Mercedes is working with Nvidia, maybe we'll get an AI security update where the G will hit back when attacked unprovoked???
I would update my app so quickly if that feature became available.
