If you want to be
seen driving a vehicle that’s brash, bold and shows off your wealth, the
Mercedes-Benz G-Class will do the job quite nicely. Are there better
alternatives on the market? Yes. After all, the G-Class has never been known
for its remarkable on-road comfort and prowess. As a status symbol, however, it
has the competition licked. Can it be made even more desirable? Just check out this example from Carlex Design.
The SUV in question
is a G63 AMG that has been outfitted with an interior so eye-catching that you
could be forgiven for thinking you were sitting in a sports car. That is, of
course, until you actually look out the windows and realize you’re towering
above most other road users.
A combination of
red and black leather is what makes the cabin stand out and is found across the
new seats and door panels. Continuing the black and red theme is an intriguing
blend of carbon fiber with red accents that can be found on the center console,
the door panels, the front passenger grab handle and the shroud around the
digital gauge cluster. Other nice touches include a commemorative embroidery
that reads ’40 Years Of Legend’ and includes an image of the G-Wagen.
Carlex Design
hasn’t said how much the interior of this unique G-Class costs, but we have a
hunch G63 owners who like it won’t have any trouble signing the cheque.
