He wants tyres which allow it to reach 160 mph. As someone who owns the old G55, I cannot even begin to tell you how terrifying that sounds.

I LOVE how the looks of this car have changed so very little since 1972, and yet it still looks so badass in 2015.

"The aerodynamics of a small town" Lol

I don't understand why people calling it useless. It's not more useless than a Lambo or Ferrari in my opinion. People who buys this car barely goes to offroading, but who drives their sports car 150+ mph / 250+ kmh on regular basis anyway?. Is this car looking good? Yes. Do people want to buy it? Yes.

Saw a G Wagon on my ski trip last winter. Black, covered in snow, looks awesome.

I love the "who needs cars with a point?", so true!

my favourite SUV period.

I don't care what people say negatives about this car. Still he is the king on the road...! It doesn't matter how old it ..!

5:03 insect graveyard after 5 minutes on the autobahn makes the car look more authentic.

this is the incarnation of the fight between the devil on my left shoulder which says "it's so fckin badass, look at it, and it got sooo much power and manlyness" while the angel on the left just says "this is the most pointless vehicle of all time, it costs a shitload of money and does nothing properly, better buy an SUV AND a proper sports car with that 130 grand"

The steering is not a issue. I got S500 w220, the steering is the same.. you got "deadzone" and it's much relaxing.. it's not a BMW with his "hard" steering. I love that steering man, I hope you'll understand me someday :)

Words and phrases like "preposterous" and "aerodynamics of a small town" sum up the G63AMG perfectly. No one in their right state of mind would want one,still it's a petrolhead's choice. It's just that emotional.

the sexiest most beautiful shit car ever created

I think that he is a highly suitable candidate to be a new top gear presenter. Anyone agree?

Thank you!!! One of this car's sole purpose was offroading. Brilliant review chris....I adore this car.

The best sound of an engine! :)

Buying this car for a piece of history. Fun to drive too ...

I had over 50 cars of all brands, lambo, ferrari, bentley, aston, maserati, amg, m5, m6, porsche, and now I dry as my everyday car G63 AMG - I love it. This car is a statement, it says I have money, I have style, I don't give a damn.

A true old school off-roader, since you can still see the front diff hanging in the reviews.

HELLO CHRIS, YOU ARE A GREAT BREATH OF FRESH AIR ON TOP GEAR.... AND LOVE YOUR CAR REVIEW'S ON KZfaq.... I LIKE YOUR NON POLITICAL APPROACH TO YOUR CAR TESTING AND I WISH YOU THE VERY BEST IN YOUR COURIER.......

It's actually an excellent off roader: 3 locking diffs, massive clearance, low range ratios etc. but of course most who buy it will never try

Glad the G65 is coming to the US.

I must admit, the mercs sound from the 6.3 litre V8 is fantastic. Absolutely astonishing.

I'm a big fan of SUV"s.. Most people like sports cars, sedans, coupes, luxury cars.. I'm straight for the SUV/LuxurySUV/Super SUV's.. I appreciate this video. G63 AMG is one of my favs.. love the G wagons

If youre in FL you get an x6/X5M or Cayenne turbo/s if youre in a city up north and want to have an SUV that can be fairly quick comfortable and handle the shit roads in NYC and Jersey with god awful potholes then this is the best choice. Still love the design, classic.

Wish he would of done a little off road in it. Thats where it really shines!

I am absolutely enchanted by this car. Next to the 2007 (?) CLK DTM AMG, the only Merc I have any feelings for, but these feelings are very strong comparatively. Well, maybe the first CLS as well. A bit.

Its definitely NOT preposterous. It holds a ton of kit. It can go anywhere you have the spuds to attempt to go. Its nice and narrow for dodging around town. Its got the grunt to make a Porsche think twice, it sounds awesome, the seats are divine. Its not preposterous, its wonderful!

I've driven the G55 very often and too me one of the greatest car ever. The G63 must be an monster because the 5.5 V8 with the (noisy) blower was already incredibly fast compared with ... there is nothing to compare with, that's the beauty of the car.

Still a sexy lookin car

nicely done chris! MORE CHRIS HARRIS PLEASE

yup! the supercharger sound was just gorgeous!!!! i'm already looking for used ones..

just noticed that you've driven through my town (the scene where there was the word "argentum" on the window... it's called Horb

Calling the G63 the Most useless car Ever is stupid , a BMW X6 is the Most useless vehicel ever.

Love to see more of these around on the road...

Five years later, chris harris still rocks

so many g63 owners here :-D

To be be honest would have agreed with most saying this is an offroader until i picked one up 2 weeks ago in Germany, first impression u get is that suspension is like that of a race CAR rock hard and the sound of doors closing, like a vault shutting. This thing drives like no other jeep probably cos of that suspension, its literarily race car bopping and it handles like a car too at speed, but due to hand build nature cars are different in character... and the acceleration is something to behold, its hilarious to put mildly so understand Chris, plus start up makes me laugh like a kid seeing playboy/hustler for 1st time , it sounds insane and everyone stares even in Germany all the way, and boy is it quick what a CAR....note i said CAR not jeep could go on and on. Fuel is not fun tho, but not so bad stopped for fill ups 3 times between Berlin and London.. Lovely ride indeed...Sigh

never realized how beautiful the landscape is....

"....so let's go find some Porsche's to irritate"sploosh. If you didn't fall in love then I can't help you.

chris looks so young in this lol

I work for BMW and I want this so badly

It was madness when Hammond tested it and it still is insane. I want one.

It depends on where you live, I have to work a crappy job in St.Moritz in Switzerland and it's full of them: long wheel base G63 G55, short wheelbase, tuned ones with cool rims....I love looking out of the door during a boring day and seeing these :)

Could imagine Justin Bieber driving one of these. He wouldn't have a clue about it but his advisors would have told him it's cool so he would go and buy one. Not my cup of tea I'm afraid but that's just my opinion. Suppose it might be amusing blowing a Cayman into the weeds.

so you didn't talk about the locking diffs on g63, you didn't take it off road, and you call that a review ?

Holy crap, 9years ago and I'm still drooling over this.. I really gotta get my shit together

RS w/ black style package at 7:32 looks still the business. Love that car.

G-class has only two real generations from 1979: W460 and W463. W463 designed in 1990. 2015 G63 is on 1990 designed chassis and technologies. it only got Face lift and interior updates. The wind cancellation is the same. the finishes is worst finshes u will find. after 2-3 years u will see parts fall off, the windows are shaky if u opened little. I like G-Class airodynamic but they should double the front windshield to minimize the wind noise problem. u can hear it in the video. I hate G-class engineers they didn't work in the basic things chassis should be aluminum for that price. Second seat is useless for adults. good sunroof but should have panoramic sunroof. just learn from range rover! and make W465 or whatever

Very nice, but i would still take a Range Rover

I also own one. It just puts a smile on everyone's faces. Inside and out side of the car :)

I have always been completely fascinated by this car. It can't handle well, it's not aerodynamic, it's much slower than any other AMG, fuel consumption is very heavy, and there must be so many other downsides. But it's amazing, it looks historical but modern in details, the interior is super-luxurious, the engineering is impressive and that V8 is totally unexpected. I absolutely love it. If I were rich enough I would really consider buying it!

Wrong way to build G-wagen. It should be fitted with diesel and fat-profile tyres to go off-road. And there should be winch fitted in the front.

people that buy this i hope they know they purchase a 90k jeep and non amg

King of the Road!!! Love it!

Very very beatiful!!!

This is a man's vehicle, not those pansy ass lambos, or Lotus' or 468. This the type of vehicle you expect a fucking man to hop out of.

The most powerful Box in the world , Chris you are the best

You just love the Gwagon, don't you ? It's just on of those cars, like most AMGs lots of faults with them but if you like them, you caouldn't help but end up loving them. Proud owner of a W204 C 220 and hopefully sometime soon an AMG :)

I love the G wagon......wanna get one! Would keep it forever!

That is a serious piece of machinery.

ohhh my omfg the Mercedes g63 amg is one of the prettiest car ever made seriously! great done Mercedes I'm impresst!

G63 AMG is the first G-wagen which i really love!!

Excellent video.

this is what I call a QUALITY off roader

Sound reasoning. Finally someone on these videos who doesn't engage in circlejerks about engine displacement and whether BMW is better than Mercedes-Benz.

There is nothing better than this in the class. Period.

I am in love with this car

amazing vehicle

I just love these cars the Gelandewagen and the same car which will be a super legendary at all ages and like bro put

Love Mercedes' form-follows-function styling on the G :)

AMAZING CAR

Very nice review. You where driving on the Autobahn A8 which passes Stuttgart-Möhringen. (Close to the Kelly Barracks)

I hope they never change the body style. My favorite cars. Even though the wind pounds the windshield like a semi, step on the pedal and it cuts through like cake.

I love the RS4, I learned how to drive stick on it. I just subscribed to your page, its awesome :).

Love the background music.

Have driven, absoletely loved it, if money was not a thing would buy

This thing is basically like an old school American muscle car. Big, heavy, boxy, bad in corners, goes like hell in a straight line, sounds like a beast, and looks cool as hell! As they call them in England, "footballers" will eat this thing up! Not my cup of tea, but still very cool!

This car does have a point, to be as insane and awesome as possible. :p

i am sold on the looks alone :)

The G63 AMG 6x6 is a beast! Most capable truck around.

loooove German cars.This car is marvelous.i wish i had such a car.

I like that bug collection on the windshield

Love this car

i love this car

Great song! I like!

there are many things in life that are pointless but offer us joys, this its one of those things that its awesome just because it exists, its like a monument, its made this way to symbolize something not to have a functionality

perfect paint colour..

That is one cool car! I would never buy one...but it's cool as hell!!

as much as i like chris harris' reviews, you are so right

my dream car one day!!!

need it- want it - must have it

Mercedes G is a phenomenon! This car was released in 1979, but it is still unique. After processing in the AMG is power, and power.

The Mercedes G63 went on sale and everybody talked about it's insane engine and power. The company's announcement a few weeks later. The launch of the G65. Gotta love AMG!

I love this car.

The hoonigan shirt 👌

You had me on the whole Video until you stated "Preposterous". Really brother after riding the G and Visibly enjoying the ride at 200MPH. As a Marine, I love the look and am searching for one. I a Single and it will be helpful in my situation, because I road travel. I can take my photography gear, weapons, hiking gear, tents, and so forth and my rottweiler will love the space. Works for me.

It would be a breathtaking moment if I start up that....

Like that car very much!

I REAAALLYY want my dad to buy me this car. In love with it soooo much.
