2018 Mercedes-Benz G65 Final Edition

OVERVIEW

SBX Cars is proud to offer for sale this 2018 Mercedes-Benz G65 Final Edition showing just 601 km (373 mi) on the odometer at the time of cataloging. Finished in Obsidian Black and Matte Bronze over a Designo Black Exclusive Nappa leather cabin, this is the ultimate expression of an all-time Mercedes-Benz symbol of prestige.

The G-Class is a superlative SUV even in base form, combining world-class luxury with world-beating off-road capability. But, when Mercedes-Benz brought an end to some 40 years of G-Class production, it pulled out all the stops to create the remarkable vehicle you see here. 

Starting with a G65 AMG and its massive hand-built 6.0L twin-turbo V12, the German automaker applied an exclusive black and bronze design that is nothing short of stunning. From the Matte Bronze 21” wheels to the carbon fiber cabin trim with bronze weave, it’s immediately obvious this is no ordinary G65. 

Mercedes only built 65 of these Final Edition range-topping G-Wagens, making today’s example a particularly rare beast. With only 601 km on the clock and clear evidence of careful upkeep, it’s as ready to dominate the dunes as it is to turn heads.
