And i agree with Rik, MB is goin insane with all these models, its like theres a new model every year.

No problem Emarati

,

That big thing could just be the extended ML which is what it looked like from the start anyways, though i disagree with huge model expansion, i feel this decision on keeping the G may be the turn around in marketing that MB needed. Seems like there are many big decisions and moves made since the beginning of November, let's see what will follow.

I say drop that GL, it only looks like a big ML and just improve the G.

Plus "MLG" as well according to their trademark applications. We discussed this before here:

and about what I would like to see as an improved, evolutionary design for a new G? Here:

Um...I said this many times that the Gelandewagon will remain in production for special orders. The rumors I heard were until 2010 though, was no one paying attention? This was on the MBWorld.org boards like 3 months ago.

This is the official press release, not speculation of.

I dont understand what people like about this car. Looks like it was designed back in the 70's

30 year old car but worth 30 x5's
i never liked it before i test drove my brother's freind g55 AMG
looks stunning with AMG kit ,, its really fun to drive, feels as fast as the m3 , bit lazy handling but thats not what its made for ... i even like it more than the ml

oh and yeah a true offroad car ...
