Please explain what behaving 'more like a rapper' means - how exactly DO rappers behave? Do they all behave the same? Do they all buy $1 million cars and wrap them? I for one would really like to know. Take your time, I'll wait...

I'm specifically talking about his criminal violence. There you go, didn't have to wait too long I hope.

BTW why are you getting so upset about this? Are you a personal friend to all the top hip hop artists?

Totally agree...but I've always hankered after one in spite of the celebrity following they attract and I've just bought a G63 which turns up tomorrow. Will report back on just how stty it is! For the record I am not a rapper, and am in fact a middle-aged, balding white man who lives in suburbia and will never in a million years take it off-road. Oh, and this G65 squared is a whole new level of awesomeness in my opinion!

Congrats on the incoming G63. You'll love it for sure. Im on my 3rd G now and nothing compares. Nothing. I had my first for about 7 years and the 2nd for about 3/4 years. When I sold that I tried two Cayenne Turbos but was never happy so we had to get back in a G.

Love this Maybach G65. Looks absolutely awesome. Personally I wouldn't buy one but I'm sure glad they make it. Keeps us pertrolheads in awe.

Well they say its going to snow in London so finally might get to use the "offroad" ability. Bring it on!

Saw one of these truely bonkers machines in EMC Workshop Abu Dhabi last month! Utterly bonkers and therefore brilliant... A modern day Lamborghini LM002!

2/10 not enough screens

looks like a Pimp my Ride effort with a higher budget, G wagens are cool, but not that really, they need to looks utilitarian to my eyes, that just looks ridiculous.

Yes. They've ruined the G-Wagon.

Ah, that's only a 63.

Mated with a yacht.

[belleair302]

I will have mine with the Mansory Upgrade delivered to my yacht in Puerto Banus for June 1st please! On Russian plates to make it look even more gauche. Would rather have a Cadillac Escalade on steroids than one of these and a Rolls Royce!

I love it!

Madness just for the sheer hell of it, we should applaud them for building it.

Is the 'see-through' gear selector an attempt to shave some weight....

Horrendously terrible, but great.

Is this the worst car to ever grace the pages of PH?
Talk about the whole being far less than the sum of it's (quite extraordinary) parts.

Presumably complete with a 300k+ price tag for something that looks like a badly modified suzuki vitara.

Ghastly looking things, i'll pass.

If a modified Suzuki Vitara is anything like as well equipped or as luxurious as this could you please send me a link to one!?

[dvs_dave]

The team responsible for this must have had a great laugh coming up with it. It's the rear section landau roof that is the most comical part.

Aside from that crazy roof, a V12 LWB G-glass with portal axles is actually a pretty desirable package.

[Kkrussell]

Shmee went on the press release...

Looked a pretty amazing experience!

[ivantate]

I hope they release a SWB version and charge even more for it.

[blueST]

At the opposite end of the spectrum, Australia gets a nice basic chassis cab version.

[louiebaby]

I want that engine in a 6x6, and the rear bed to be enclosed, and sectioned to use as a boot for normal storage, and space for a couple of comfy dog beds.

Maybe I should be sectioned...

Lmao what on earth is going on here?! I like the normal pickup 6x6 and think it's hilarious but what the heck!

[Vocht]

I like to think somebody at Mercedes HQ accidentally brought in the wrong brownies for their charity office bake off and this is what they came up with that day

[Bahnstormer]

Argh........My Eyes !!!

I have to love it if only for the full portal hub setup. It would actually be a beast for luxury pimp overlanding, coupled with the full diff locks.
