For a AMG 6.3L V8 in a 3 tonne boxy 4WD does 0-100kph in 5.3 second, that fast and they wanna do a V12 version??? Have these German completely lost it???

[dimka100]

Americans love them and buy them ... you know AMGs in the USA go for the same kinda money we buy FPVs here for ...

[FPV8U]

Love those things, with the 6.3L even better!

So this heavy 4WD is quicker than Toyotas new "sports" car? Wouldn't want to buy a new 86 and line up against this soccer mum machine at the lights. How embarassing..

How old are you? Or are you just immature?


The G63 also quicker then a veyron...


And a GT-R does it in 2.8...


The point?


Who cares...

Different cars, different aims, different claims.

There is always something faster.

Lol are you for real. Of course it would and also beat my WRX as well. Would hope so with a twin turbo **** off big V8 and being much more expensive :

Wow, what's with all the hostility? He was just highlighting the point that the G63 was fast. Nothing wrong with that!

Of course a 5.5l twin turbo V8 (with awd) is going to be quick...

Not as embarrassing as driving a Fiesta

I don't pretend it's a sports car. And it's barely slower than the new FT86.

Yeah, it just pretends to be a car.

Lexus LF-A is quicker than it and it's a Toyota pretty much.

Not really.

Never seen a Toyota badged car sell for 750k.

Thats like saying an Aston Martin from a few years ago is pretty much a Ford.

[Dave_Obsession]

That looks hideous in my opinion.
Don't mind the interior though.

I agree, not very appealing at all.

[Bossxr8]

Love the concept of it but damn the G wagon is an ugly box on wheels.

[Kryton]

It may look "hideous" but its styling is keeping to its true heritage.

[InTrail]

Seem to remember the G class getting quite a sales boost (in Europe or the US) after its appearance in the "Bourne Supremacy."
Must have been some unintended marketing given it was rammed sideways into a concrete pylon.

i don`t mind the look of it, very truck like .

Agreed, I've seen them in the flesh a few times and even seen one from the mid 90s in excellent condition. They are good looking, though the one pictured probably isn't as nice to look at as standard models.

[Ben73]

I'd buy one. I think they look cool. I love a boxy 4x4.
The twin turbo v12 is a monster, but I think I'll prefer the twin turbo v8. V8 amgs always sound amazing.

[Shonky.]

got some mates who love Defenders

I reckon a bit of wee would come out if they saw this

[Mr H]

looks like something from a rap video clip.....just missing the 24s LOL

[Nikked]

Don't worry, bieber will have one soon, complete with chrome paint and jeweled 24's
