I have owned this beautiful G500 for almost 5 years, and have kept it under Mercedes Benz warranty the entire time (warranty expires 6/22/14). I wanted the vehicle to look exactly as it does, and it took some time and expense to get it there. The wheels are powder coated in textured black. The stereo/nav was replaced with a Kenwood, ipod friendly unit, with much updated nav, etc., amp and 10" sub in back. Obviously, this gives you much better navigation and a much, much better stereo. The Hannibal roof rack was not available in the US until I bought this one, and it was a couple of thousand dollars, but makes the vehicle. The rear spare tire is a BF Goodrich all-terrain like the others, and contains locking storage compartment, for that more off-road (and black) look. The four rolling tires are in great shape. It has the brush guard, light guards, etc. in black as well. The stock spare tire cover (chrome surround, etc) comes with the truck if you like that look, but it will not fit over the BFG tire, as well as the stock stereo. There are full weather tech rubber mats covering entire floor in vehicle and cargo area. The truck has 115,000 miles at this point, and we are reluctantly replacing it with something newer for a daily driver. Already have a 911 TT that just sits in the garage or this would be kept. I never get tired of looking at this car. If you are not familiar with G-wagens, you should familiarize yourself with them before bidding on this vehicle. They are amazing vehicles designed with specific purposes in mind. For example, this car will drive around on hills in the snow like there is no snow. They are amazing. However, they are not Range Rovers. They are not luxury grocery haulers. If you have not driven one, much less a 7 year old one, you should do so before buying this vehicle. It has been maintained as well as any G-wagen around, but they are noisy, rough-riding, somewhat uncivilized vehicles. Knowing that, there is not a more unique ride around. If you like attention, or you don't, you are going to get a lot of it. Email me with questions or to request more pictures at rnridout@ridoutlumber.com. I had a little trouble uploading some of the pictures for some reason so some did not make it into ad. There is one star on the windshield and one small ding that looks like it was caused by a golf ball beside the gas door. I have included a picture of each. The pockets on inside bottom of the two front doors have been removed because they creak constantly when driving. BTW, this car is not being sold b/c of the accident. After had already decided to sell, wife's foot stuck under brake because of UGG boot, and she hit car in school parking lot. Brush guard bent and hit passenger front fender crimping it slightly; nothing mechanical. All parts replaced, and repair carries lifetime warranty. You cannot tell it occurred. Car looks amazing. Happy bidding.
