I have a Selenite Gray Night Package G63 on order.
Also have option to buy 26 Platinum Magno Night package today.
If I wait for 27, my trade in loses value, and who knows what happens between new and then. Or I can snag the 26 and drive it tomorrow.
My dilemma is the color. Selenite is classic and I was obsessed with the magno on my E63, but they dont ofer it on the G. Plan was to wrap it satin and call it a day, but the more I look at images of Selenite on the G, I'm having second thoughts.
Platinum magno looks "mechanical" to me. Like a mean machine. Like something Tony Stark would drive. But the issue here is I've seen several of them and I've never seen a Selenite Gray irl.
Please talk me through it. Both are nice and normally I'm super decisive, but this is one super expensive decision and I'm truly torn!
**Stock images I was able to find online. Both of my options have the multispoke 22's..
I love my Selenite Grey with Night Package Plus and almost ordered it again on my incoming 2027, but I wanted something a bit different. You have seen photos of my vehicle, it definitely looks different shades of grey depending on the light. It goes from darker to almost a metallic type of Arabian Grey in some lighting. I know the Night Package Plus is a matter of preference, but it really fits the Selenite Grey nicely. You can't go wrong with either color you are trying to pick, but I feel like from an investment perspective, I'd go with the 2027 and stick to your gut feeling. Yeah, your trade in may be a little less, but overall having a model year newer adds value on the other end.
The Platinum Magno with extended night package is a sick combo... Its hard to turn down a ready to purchase vehicle vs waiting for a 27 Build. How about getting the 26 now then ordering the 27 in Selenite Grey and trade the 26 platinum when it arrives? Either way... these are good problems to have LOL
From a pure financial standpoint it doesn’t make sense to buy one of the last 26s as the G is very model year sensitive. If you are keeping for awhile it’s less of an issue but if you are getting a 28 you’d rather have a 27 to trade than a 26.
Are both deals at msrp? If so you can probably get away with driving the 26 for a few months but it’ll probably cost you maybe $3-5k? Cheaper than a lease per month but depends on timing and mileage.
If you are paying ADM of any type I’d just get the 2027.

Coming from someone who gets a new G every year, I appreciate the advice. 🤣
Both MSRP.. I’d lose $20K in taxes on the trades as far as I can see.
I love it! Wait, does that mean you are waiting on your 2027 order? Or going with the right now 2026? Sorry, I didn’t know the Graphite was in the mix?

Anyway, I'm going with Graphite and night package lol. If it aint broke, dont fix it I always say.

I’m going to wait for the 2027 order which I was able to change to graphite. We have a graphite now, and I know for sure I love the color. The other two would be taking a chance!
for sure though, 100%, my next one will be in a matte. Hopefully they bring back a true selenite magno and I can actually see irl what it looks like!

Sounds like a plan! Keep us posted on the 2027 build and process.
