Mercedes G-Class is permanently trying to wow its customers with more interesting projects. Now it's time for the G is presenting the six-wheeled Mercedes-AMG G63. And all we can say is "Welcome to the family!"
The G63 project consists of only between 100-160 units built and this makes them truly rare. It's different from other AMG models with its custom features. Its history begins back in 2017 when South Florida Jeeps built a standard 2017 Mercedes-AMG G63. And after that begin the customer conversion into a 6x6.
Aimed to become an off-roads at full capacity, the current AMG G63 is sitting on 22-inch aluminum wheels wrapped in chunky 37-inch Baja tires. Also, the six-wheeled features a 60-inch-long bed finished in teakwood and it becomes a 6x6 pickup. Customed nine-inch differential and a middle axle that powers the rear four-wheels are forming the true spirit of a 6x6 off-road.
For an additional meaner look, the AMG G63 6x6 is combined with extra wheels, massive eight-inch carbon fiber fenders, additional modifications including a carbon fiber Brabus overhead light bar, a 4.5-inch suspension system with Fox reservoir shocks, and a custom aluminum roll cage. The lift kit raises the ride's height by five inches and this way, the off-road get more ground clearance.
Other custom features were added to the hood accents which round off the exterior enhancements. Meanwhile, the interior is fitted with luxurious plush leather seats and a starry night sky headliner inspired by the opulent Rolls-Royce cars. The AMG G63 6x6 is powered by a tuned 5.5-liter V8 and delivers 700 horsepower and 813 Newton-meters of torque. Previously, the 2017 standard G63 performed only 563 hp and 760 Nm of torque.
After seeing all the opulence and luxurious features offered by the Mercedes-AMG G63 6x6, this one-off will be solved at the Barrett Jackson Scottsdale auction house on March 27, and everyone is expecting to get over $1 million for this one. And collectors might pay more because this is a piece worth a collection. The good news is that you can pay So Flo Jeeps $175,000 to convert your current G-Class.
