Ordered a G63
Well, it's official. It's coming, dealer is estimating late August delivery 
Ordering process was easy but for some reason, system will not let me keep the stock AMG steering wheel. With carbon trim I had to pick heated or black steering wheel. Ah well, heated it is.

Right.. Only way to get heated wheel is all nappa leather. No carbon or wood/7 piano combo can take heat.
You will luv the exclusive porcelain int. I have it in my G and it's simple gorgeous. Luv the diamond stitch ala Bentley
By the way I got a set of Pirelli Scorpian ice and Snow. The G walked through all the winter crap no problem

Nice!!! I'm getting mine in the beginning of July, got mine in obsidian black with exclusive red napa leather and carbon trim. also wanted the carbon wheel but only way to go is black piano or heated(I chose heated) when you do carbon trim.

I still got time to change the exterior color, what you think about the magno paint upkeep? Have you ever had a mate color before on any of your cars? It will be a weekend and longer trips car plus two kids

Yeah I heard that and if it's scratched the panel has to be repainted
I was thinking to get the magno black but I think I just stay with obsidian. Let's see. As you see I already owned a 13' G63, had it for 7 months and dealer bought it back from me cause it had too many issues. At the end all was fixed but I just felt some type of way about that truck that I didn't want it back. Had Brabus ecu suspension and exhaust already installed on it . Will do do it all again accept for the suspension. Can't wait

what kind of issues? i have a similar experience, my 07 has zero issues since day one but the 10 omg it had so many stupid things break like leaking gas tank, door not opening, roof off track, window not operating, etc, etc. now seems like it's running fine as well, but dunno what happened with mercedes or may be i am just that lucky. but like i said, 07 is still running strong and have zero issues other than regular maintenance.

Mine had alarm going off by it self, battery could not hold power for more than two days, leak from moonroof, sometimes the tranny didn't shift from park. There was so much squeak noise from the windshield on the driver side that it was annoying to even drive the car. TC malfunction and engine light on almost all the time. So in a few months time all this just left a bad taste in my mouth and didn't want the car even if they paid me to drive it lol... Hope the new one I ordered will me problem free.

Yes I had the Brabus adjustable suspension on my 2013 G63, it only has two settings, comfortable and sport where sport just feels like AMG stock suspension and comf mode made the truck feel like a 80 cadillac witch for me felt weird and I just had it in sport all the time. I will get the exhaust and ecu but I will pass on the suspension on my next G63.
hot damn! that looks great man!!
