Greetings,
I am just about to buy one of the last 2005 G's. The dealer stated that they are discontinued until further notice. Probably waiting to see how the GL does before making a decision.

Zach, Welcome to the forum, but your dealer sounds like he's under informed - which isn't really all that rare.

Why not fill out your profile so we know where you (and your dealer ) are located?

I was visiting the Brussels motor show this Sunday, and off course I went to the Mercedes stand...

.... No G...!!!!

Can you imagine???!!!

"There's one outside, but you can't see it and you can't test drive it" a friendly lady told me.

The new ML was there and the new R, the Viano, the SLR, Maybach 57S, all very nice but NO G...

Studebaker,

I know in new york city, when I
was there in December they had an 06
G-class for sale.

Also since your username is studebaker
maybe you would be interested in a
2006 Studebaker XUV ? [:I]

@Frank_be: I asked the same question. Answer: "we can have your local dealer contact you." Boring answer.

Even when I got the latest Customer Questionaire from Mercedes asking when or what car you would buy in the future, the G was not in the list. So I returned the letter which I manually corrected ;-)

Is there a reason why there is no publicity around the G at all (in general or/and in Belgium) ?
- No need to (people who want will find it)
- DaimlerChrysler don't want or can't increase the production in Graz
- DaimlerChrysler somewhat 'ashamed' of the G (design out of tune compared to newer mercedes)
- combination of all

Or is it different in the USA ?

PS: dealers knowing nothing is global apparently ...
