G55 Amg

What do you guys think of the G55 AMG?

I don't know, im still confused as to which model I should buy. S55, E55, OR G55.

Any owners in here, or people with experience?

i own the G500, but then again I live in New England and I don't commute in it. it all depends what you need it or want it for. I like the G because nothing less than a hummer h1 can take on it, i have the luxury of the S class and where I live there's at least a dozen E55's so I didn't want to get another one.

Do you compare a Defender or Hummer H1 vs S55 or E55?

I dont really see the point of having AMG performance in a terrain veichle. You dont really go fast off road anyway, if you dont consider Paris Dakar.

Get a E55, and a cheaper offroader, if you need one.

Can't lose with either one. I'd get the S55 though.

I'd go for the S55 first, or the E55 second option, and discard the ugly box with wheels called G55

2004 S 600
I think MB will come out with competitor to Range Rover using the G plant in Germany......I certainly hope so. Can't buy another Range Rover since it will now be all Jag/Ford parts instead of current BMW.

Right now.....go for an S600.....beyond your imagination, I assure you!
