Glad to hear you are doing well LBJ. That's a beautiful looking machine.

While the G63 is pretty amazing, what's really amazing is I have not had any medical appointments the last 3 weeks and won't have any whatoever until December.

In the last 9 years, medical appointments happened on a weekly basis.

Incredible.

Both of those are fantastic!
Enjoy that AMG

And the 4.0L Bitturbo with 587hp will be amazing.
Except for the 14mpg.

But I'm not buying it for the fuel economy. No one does.

The sound! Oh my gosh the sound!

I've driven my buddy's wife's SL63 which has the same motor and that sound is incredible (especially with the top down).

The AMG G-Class has side pipes, so I'd bet it's a bit louder than the SL
Even the non-AMG G-class is a noisy truck.

Best goes to the SLR though. Side pipes, 5.5; V8 with a big supercharger on it. Whine plus rumble. One of the best stock cars I've heard in person.

If one wants to sneak out of the garage late at night, a G63 might not be the best choice.

Hey LBJ.....you just passed 9 years since your diagnosis with kidney cancer.....how about an update? And an update on the sweet wagon en route?

Wishing lbj a happy birthday.

Thanks for the notification, Mark!

Happy Birthday, Boss!
