On March 10, 2023, the street festival was held as part of the Buon Ma Thuot Coffee Festival. This event attracted a large number of local residents and tourists who were amazed by Mr. Dang Le Nguyen Vu’s expensive SUV fleet. Among the fleet, three Mercedes-Benz G-Class cars stood out as they transported three beauties: Vu Thi Hoang My (Runner-up Miss Vietnam 2010), Tran Tieu Vy (Miss Vietnam 2018), and Le Nguyen Bao Ngoc (Continental Queen 2022).
Unlike Miss Le Nguyen Bao Ngoc and Runner-up Vu Thi Hoang My, who arrived in new generation luxury SUVs Mercedes-AMG G63, Miss Tran Tieu Vy made her entrance in a special and luxurious Mercedes-Benz G-Class SUV, the 500 Edition 35, which is the only one of its kind in Vietnam.

This event showcased the most recent appearance of the unique Mercedes-Benz G500 Edition 35 owned by Mr. Dang Le Nguyen Vu. Previously, the car made an appearance at a supercar event in Buon Ma Thuot in November 2022. Compared to that event, the Mercedes-Benz G500 Edition 35 has received a new uniform that harmoniously matches the two new generation luxury SUVs, the Mercedes-AMG G63, which also participated in this Buon Ma Thuot Coffee Festival.
The exterior of the Mercedes-Benz G500 Edition 35 is painted in matte military green, with the third window at the back of the car painted white. The front part of the car has white accents, while the front bumper, wheel arches, and mirror covers maintain their original glossy black color. The rims have been repainted in gray to complete the new look.

Only 350 Mercedes-Benz G500 Edition 35 cars have been produced worldwide, and only one car has been officially imported into Vietnam. When it first arrived in the country, the car had a selling price of 6.63 billion VND and is currently owned by a tycoon from Ha Tinh province.
The Mercedes-Benz G500 Edition 35, used to transport Miss Vietnam 2018 – Tran Tieu Vy, is equipped with a V8 engine with a capacity of 5.5 liters. It generates a maximum power of 387 horsepower and a maximum torque of 530 Nm.
The powerful Mercedes-Benz G500 Edition 35 SUV, the only one in Vietnam, is equipped with a 7-speed automatic transmission. This allows the over 2.5-ton SUV to accelerate from 0 to 100 km/h in just 6.1 seconds.
