STUTTGART: If you can't afford the real deal, get the scale model to admire. If you are a fan of the Mercedes-AMG G-Class, the German car maker has issued a limited edition of the G 500 4x4² in eight colours.
With portal axles and a full 44cm of ground clearance, the G 500 4x4² has been the highlight in the model programme of the off-road icon since 2015. The extreme G is scaled down to 1:18, and is available in diamond white, electric beam, tektite grey, mauritius blue, sunset beam, alien green, tomato red and galactic beam. In line with the internal model code W 463, there are be exactly 463 copies of every colour - each numbered, i.e., “1 of 463”, “2 of 463”, etc., on the bottom of each car.
The resin-made miniatures were created in collaboration with the model car specialist GT Spirit, to whom Mercedes-Benz gave the original design data for the development of these unique models.
Detail is said to be high. For example, the 4x4² logo on the rim was implemented as true to the original vehicle as the perforated metal under the front apron. The eight miniature extreme G models consist of up to 100 parts and are outfitted with a number of special equipment.
These exclusive limited edition extreme G model cars can be ordered from the Mercedes-Benz dealerships as well as in the online shop http://shop.mercedes-benz.de.
