2006 G55 on eBay?

It's not really a 2006, there are no 2006 G's in the US. It looks like a 2003. A scam, perhaps?

Well, the 06 should be supercharged, and I do not see a Kompressor badge.

However, they claim to be an MB dealer (although does not necessarily indicate they know what they are talking about. )

I'd venture to say it's NOT a 2006

Ok, it's def. not a 2006! In fact, they say so in between the pictures.

Contact Mark Holmberg on kmhmotor@hotmail.com ***Pics are of another G55 and NOT the '06****
Something is definitely foul over there. MBUSA should be made aware

Pictures are not of actual vehicle which will arrive in Virginia in the next two days! However, do not wait to contact me as these tend to go quickly and most of our auctions end EARLY!!

...........the one they pictured is also fishy. It is an 04 G55 with only 11 miles. You will expect more miles than that even if the owner is a snail.

...............what he has pictured is definitely not an 05. Many knowledgeable people on this forum so the bar is set very high here for factual information.

Well, either way, I'm looking forward to seeing pictures of the 06 if it does exist. This will be big news to me, as MBUSA hasn't yet announced the availability of 06 G-class.

..........you are right, it doesn't say it is an 05..........seller now claims that the picture is indeed the picture of an 06!!!!!!!!!

............Here is his/her quote.

On May-18-06 at 10:42:51 PDT, seller added the following information:
+++++Also available 2006 G500 in Obsidian Black+++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ TO END SOME CONFUSION... THIS IS A 2006. THEY ARE BEING PRODUCED ON A LIMITED BASIS AFTER THE CANADIAN MILITARY ORDERED THOUSANDS MORE. THE 2006 IS ABSENT THE GRAND EDITION MEDALLION AND KOMPRESSOR BADGING.
............the seller forgets to look at the angine bay that shows the engine of the NA V8. perharps the 06 G55's are going to have the same engines as the 03 and 04.

The vin checks out as an 06, but with a vehicle with an Iran code.
