Yahoo News 2023 Mercedes-AMG G63 Grand Edition Is Glitzy or Gaudy
The 2023 Mercedes-AMG G63 Grand Edition will be limited to 1000 copies globally.
The Grand Edition features matte black paint and unique gold exterior accents
Mercedes hasn't said how much the G63 Grand Edition costs, and it's not yet saying if it'll be offered in the U.S. market.
While the Mercedes-Benz G-class is known to be seriously capable off-road, it's also known as a machine that celebrities and rich folks alike roll out to flaunt their status. The 577-hp AMG G63 variant is especially bougie, and the newly introduced Grand Edition takes that to the next level.
As the kids say, the 2023 Mercedes-AMG G63 Grand Edition has some serious drip. For those who don't know what that means, Google's search function is a useful resource. Simply put, the SUV's matte black paint (MANUFAKTUR Night Black Magno) and exclusive gold exterior accents give it a fashionable appearance.
There's nothing subtle about the G-wagen's unmistakable shape and styling that can be traced back to the 1979 original. Only a couple years earlier, the 1977 movie Smokey and the Bandit hit theaters, featuring Burt Reynolds behind the wheel of a black-and-gold Pontiac Trans Am. The G63 Grand Edition puts off those same vibes, with its gold-colored decals and multispoke wheels. The latter are forged 22-inchers painted Tech Gold, which match the color of the side graphics. Mercedes also says an Affalterbach emblem in Kalahari Gold Magno is "emblazoned" on the hood in what sounds like a German version of Pontiac's screaming chicken.
Mercedes's three-pointed star emblems, the AMG badges, and details on both bumpers as well as the rear-mounted spare tire carrier are also coated in Kalahari Gold Magno. Inside, the Grand Edition has black nappa leather with gold contrast stitching. The same color combo applies to the floor mats, and above the glovebox there's a plaque on the grab handle that says "Grand Edition" with the "G" in bold. For G-wagen, get it?
Some might say the G63 Grand Edition is glitzy, but others might call it gaudy. Either way, Mercedes says it only plans to sell 1000 copies around the globe. That company hasn't said how much the limited-production model costs, nor is it releasing any information about a potential U.S. version, which will be announced later.
