Maybe we need to start off small. I mean, they don't let you fuck the glumpers at Glumpees without a level 4 FuckPass, do they?

A good friend will come bail you out of jail...BUT, a true friend will be sitting next to you saying, DAMN...that was fun!

Wimmer will have a conniption when he sees the name.

Why is that? Gretta sounds German to me.

Over the next few months I plan on giving it a 2-3" lift, refinishing the wheels, getting some bigger tires (34"), fitting wider AMG fender flares (to cover the tires), a pair of VisionX light pods and doing a paint correction.  Maybe a ceramic coat.

Eventually I'd like to do a full stainless exhaust system.  Eventually.

Waitaminute...  $100k+ vehicle and Merc doesn't fit a stainless exhaust?

Lol I actually do take it on trails believe it or not.  Not super difficult terrain mind you, but I do.

Huge fan. I love the G-wagen, but have no desire to own a G63 AMG, or any of the AMG ones. I'm all about the understated W463s (like the EU diesel G-classes, 2002 G500, etc.) and would love to own one.

The engine in mine makes 388HP and 391TQ...way more than enough for a vehicle like this.  The AMG is overkill, but I do wish mine had the wider wheel flares the AMG has.

Gretta is a big boned girl.  She weighs 5600lbs, so that really isn't a tremendous amount of power.

HOW DARE YOU!

^Swedish for, "That's so awesome and cool! Enjoy it, drive it a lot and leave the engine running overnight because it's cold and I want the planet to become a warmer place! Thanks!^
