Thank you antonioledesma for fixing the links to the pics. I don't know what I did wrong there as the coding seems in accordance with the guideline.

The G55 is a 2003 so it doesn't have the supercharger that comes in the 2004 models. Should have waited one more year. The suspension is ridiculously stiff and the ride is extremely harsh. Having said that, it's a hoot to drive! The acceleration is mind-boggling quick (for such a heavy car!) These pics were taken during last summer (except for the required shot which was taken with my phone this am en route to work). It's far too cold and the car is far too dirty for photographs. Promise more when the weather warms up. Will post pics of my other cars too at a later date... Stay tuned... Enough words, TT? :wink:

NICE!

I love G-wagens! Range Rover comes a close second, IMHO, but the G-Wagen is king!

Nice car dude, thanks for following the rules but you could have at least added a couple of words about your car instead of just posting 3 pics and running away ;)

It's like some german technician had been drinking a bit much and decided to raid the AMG parts-bin and glue em to a G wagon!!!

Man, everyone is hyping about the G55s. I'm kicking myself for not taking a picture of that new 2005 AMG one at the mall the other day...

EXACTLY! If you see one of those things in your rear-view then one of 3 things will happen - it will either go around you, over your roof, or straight fucking through you!

A Cayenne would snuff that thing sooo easily on and off road... Nice car but not exactly my type.

Great car... way better than the dull ML55 AMG! Too bad there isn't a G65 version! :twisted:

No kidding they should certainly drop that Twin Turbo V-12 in the G-Wagon... so sick. I saw one just like yours in downtown Denver in silver, they look so clean. Nice car.

Too bad there isn't a G65 version! :twisted:

I think they are making a very limited run of the G65. There was a blurb in the latest EVO or CAR magazine about it. over 600bhp and the standard 1000NM of torque. Crazy, needless to say

Edit: I just realize i wrote "standard 1000NM" of torque. What has Mercedes come to?
