What was the price of the G550 and why not get a G63?

Sticker but incredible trade in on my 07 SL600 which I already turned in. Didn't like ride of G55 Vs G500 so don't want to chance disappointment. I keep it in Montana so want the higher clearance

Sounds a bit odd. I ordered my G63 about 8 weeks ago and was able to choose everything through Net star. Notr sure whether or not the G63 are being produced and delivered earlier then the G550s but that might explain it.

Nope, I just got the normal 20" rims that came with the truck. Will see how it looks when it arrives then decided how to mod it out.

I have an allocation for a G63 in September, gathering details now and building tomorrow.

A couple of questions regarding the PA6 designo exclusive package:
1. I see the embossed headrest for the G65, I just want to confirm that the G63 headrest with this option will be plain (I'd rather not have the extra flair). EDIT: confirmed from selection sheet that this is the v12 only.

2. Are the "AMG Sport Seats" fundamentally different than the standard G63 seats? i.e. are the "AMG Sport Seats" more like what I have in my 2011 S63?

I love my S63 seats, but the G seats seem a bit leaner, so I was hoping for something similar to my S63 in this new revision of the G.

Thanks in advance.

I was under the impression that no real allocations have been made yet. Who is your dealer? My dealer says no allocations yet...

The dealer is in Nashville, we put down our deposit. We saw the allocation on the monitor for the startup allocation when I was there in May. I don't know if they traded the allocation that was for July or what happened, but it seems this may be the only one they are getting this year.

Any thoughts on my questions about the seats?

Some updates from our build today:
1. Almost all options in the US are standard, unlike the European options sheet that has floated around. Very few options were optional, if that makes sense.
2. Build date is October, 3rd decade (roughly third week). Delivery perhaps in December.

We chose:
- 041 designo graphite metallic
- PA6 designo exclusive package
- zf3 porcelain (two tone color)
- v56 High gloss brown burr walnut trim
- wood/leather wheel

"Options" that I recall were "Standard" in the U.S.:
- Distronic
- Parktronic
- Sunroof
- Privacy glass
- Bluetooth/Media interface
- Reverse camera
- Rear bottle holder

Nice, but Im not loving that chrome uprights on the grill guard. They would look better in matte black. anyone know if all the grill guards will be chrome like this one?

All AMG models get the chrome grill...if specified. Non AMG versions have something similar to what's historically been used.

So are the G65s getting the front bar as a design differentiator?

What is this?

What bar are you referring to? The chrome brush guard is standard in some markets and optional (or not available) in others.

The logos and embroidery in the picture were done custom and are not from the factory.

Any idea on pricing for the exclusive designo interior?
