If I had $60,000 to spend on a daily driver, this would make the top 10 list of contenders.

They say money doesn’t buy taste. This car not only believes it, this is its sole mission.

I’d want a warranty, and a good one but yea I love these things!

Are those tattle tales? Never noticed a G with those before.

I will also add that a more Florida car doesn’t exist. Sure there may be other great contenders, but this is the top of the pile.

With that budget I’d most likely buy... shit I guess a G Wagon.

I’d take one for that kind of money. I know there’s a certain association with them, but damn they are so cool. Something about a six figure luxury car being made with the same presses that made its ancestors 30 years ago.

Make it shoot flames and I’m 100% on board with this decision.

I was going to try disagree with you for shits and giggles, but then I found this:

Can’t get much more Florida than that... I have no idea why my wife loves these things.

I was following a beautiful G550 in traffic the other day. I couldn’t tell for sure, but it looked like bigger than stock tires on it too. While I doubt I’ll ever have one, I really like the look of the non-AMG ones.

Even better is the fact that I know it sucks to drive, but I want it just because I think it’s cool. And frankly, if i had one, I’d hope some people would hate it.

You mean the lights on top of the fenders? Every G since 1979 has those.

Id say a last-gen Rolls Corniche.

But certain you’ll need $60,000 alone a year to maintain it though. So over 5 years ownership it’ll be more like $360,000.

Because I find it extremely cool.
