Description:
Hi MB World,
We are selling a mostly stock G55 AMG Grand Edition. Back in 2005, Mercedes was planning on discontinuing the G wagon in America so they released 500 Grand Editions - fancy badges.
We are the 2nd owners, the original owner sent the G55 back to the AMG design studio in 2005 to have AMG fit the trim with Carbon Fiber. This is the only (to my knowledge) 2005 G55 Grand Edition with factory carbon fiber, this was a $14,000 upgrade.
Black on Black.
Everything works properly except the Heated Steering wheel option - I think the wheel needs to be replaced but since the wheel has the one off Carbon Fiber Trim we have opted to not fix it.
All maintenance performed by certified techs.
All service up to date. Serviced a few times a year. Always reliable.
Taken on many many road trips.
This G is ready for anything!
New Tires in Fall of 2017.
We bought this in 2013 with 18k miles.
Subwoofer in rear trunk.
Please let me know what else you want to know. Pictures to follow.
Our Friend is a dealer and has it up on his site as well. I just thought some enthusiast might want a chance at this!

From the Original Ad
" You are looking at a gorgeous one owner 2005 Mercedes-Benz G55 Grand Edition. Only 18k miles, car is beautiful. No accident or paintwork history, you will be hard pressed to find a nicer or more well maintained example. This G55 has over $14k in custom carbon fiber trim which was ordered directly from the AMG design studio in Europe. Carbon Fiber trim was not an available option on US models. "

Rides great on its newer tires. This has been regularly driven despite the low miles - Perfect combination. I would not hesitate to drive cross country. I can assist with shipping.
This G has a true charcter and nostolgia that the 2013s and newer just dont have.
Let me know what you would like to know about this G.

G Wagons hold their value better than most cars. As this is an extremely rare car, it is hard to price it.
If anyone has interest, Lets talk.

You're not far from me either. But I'm in the same boat - old G or 2013 G63 or 2019 G63 (yes, I know huge difference in $$). Character of old G, newer M157 engine (which is great in my GL), or completely new G63.
