A wealthy couple from Binh Duong province recently made headlines when they purchased a pre-owned Mercedes-AMG G63 SUV with a special license plate. The couple, who reside in Di An, acquired the luxurious SUV, which is highly sought after by car enthusiasts.
What makes this acquisition even more impressive is the special license plate attached to the Mercedes-AMG G63 SUV. The license plate, 61K-288.88, is commonly referred to as the “quad-eight” plate. Our research shows that the 61K-288.88 license plate went through two rounds of bidding.
The first auction occurred on October 13, 2023, from 09:15 to 10:15, where the license plate was initially sold for 1.18 billion VND. However, the winning bidder only paid a deposit of 40 million VND at that time. Subsequently, the license plate was put up for auction again on November 14, 2023, from 08:00 to 09:00. This time, it was sold for a final price of 745 million VND, and the winning bidder completed all necessary financial procedures to register the plate for the Mercedes-AMG G63.
According to insider information, the owners of the Mercedes-AMG G63 with the license plate 61K-288.88 are involved in the food industry, specifically in the pork supply chain. Interestingly, they conducted the car purchase transaction through text messages and only traveled to Ho Chi Minh City on the day of delivery to see the vehicle in person.
Currently, the prices of used Mercedes-AMG G63 SUVs range from 6.2 billion to 10.5 billion VND, depending on factors such as the model, dealership, and whether it’s a direct transaction or not.
The heart of the Mercedes-AMG G63 lies in its twin-turbocharged V8 petrol engine, boasting a displacement of 4.0 liters. This powerful engine generates a maximum power of 577 horsepower at 6,000 rpm and a peak torque of 850 Nm within the rpm range of 2,500 to 3,500.
Equipped with a 9-speed AMG Speedshift Plus automatic transmission, the G63, often referred to as the “king of off-road vehicles,” transfers power to all four wheels. Thanks to this setup, the G63 can sprint from 0 to 100 km/h in just 4.5 seconds and achieve a top speed of 220 km/h.
