Worth knowing
- Pre-2019 models ride like trucks with cramped cabins, while 2019 and later are far more refined, and fuel economy is poor.
- It requires premium fuel.
The trim we'd park in our garage
Look for the G550: it delivers the iconic look and V8 power for far less than the G63; 2019 and later models are a redesign with a roomier, modern interior and better ride.
