Widely popular for almost five years in Vietnam, the Mercedes-AMG G 63 currently counts over 100 models in various versions and colors. However, the previous generation was less sought-after, despite a significantly lower price.
A luxury car dealership in Hanoi recently offered a Mercedes-AMG G 63 for sale at a price of around 5 billion VND. According to Autodaily’s research, the car was manufactured in 2014, first registered in 2015, and has driven over 70,000 km. This mileage is relatively low compared to similar models, and even lower than some newer models with 2019 models having covered over 70,000 km.
According to some opinions on social media, the price of the car is relatively high because currently, the second-hand car market has several G 63 models from 2019-2020 with prices ranging from 7.5-8 billion VND. However, before 2016, a new G 63 cost around 8 billion VND due to lower taxes. After 10 years, the car has depreciated by approximately 50%.
Currently, the Mercedes-AMG G 63 is distributed by both official and private dealers, with prices ranging from 11-12 billion VND depending on the car. At peak times, this SUV was sold for up to 13 billion VND when imported by private companies.
After 10 years of use, the car’s exterior remains intact. The paintwork is still relatively new as the owner has preserved it well by applying decals. The car’s exterior is more angular than the current version. The front end is simple, featuring a grille with two horizontal chrome bars and the three-pointed star logo in the center. The front bumper has three large air intakes.
The round headlights are a distinctive feature, but lack the circular daytime running lights of the current version. Below them is a strip of LED lights. Above them are the characteristic turn signal clusters of the G-Class.
The rear is simple and has changed little from the current version, retaining the taillights and the spare wheel carrier. There are air vents on both sides to help dissipate heat from the V8 engine compartment. Notably, after a long period of use, the car doors make a creaking sound when opened and closed.
The car is equipped with 20-inch, five-spoke, star-shaped alloy wheels, finished in silver with a gray accent on the rims. The striking red AMG brake calipers are prominent at the rear. Scratches are visible on the rims due to wear and tear.
The interior is a combination of black and brown. With 10 years of use, the details show signs of aging, particularly the leather upholstery on the seats, door panels, and dashboard. The plastic trim, door sills, and gear lever have also accumulated wear and tear. The previous owner upgraded the steering wheel to a carbon fiber model from AMG, but it is not the steering wheel from the G 63.
The center console features numerous physical buttons, with a small screen at the top. Behind the steering wheel is an instrument panel with an electronic display and two analog gauges. The car still uses a mechanical handbrake instead of an electronic parking brake like the current version. Additionally, the car starts by inserting a remote into the ignition slot rather than having a Start/Stop button.
The seats have electric adjustment, memory settings, etc., but show signs of wear. The rear seats are similar and do not have entertainment screens. Other features of the car include a 12-speaker Harman Kardon surround sound system, sunroof, and more.
