Overview

Why this car matters

W463-based sport utility truck assembled by Magna Steyr in Graz, Austria; six-wheel drive with portal axles derived from the military G 6×6; the M157 5.5-litre twin-turbo V8, 544 PS / 536 hp / 400 kW, 760 Nm / 561 lb-ft; 7-speed automatic; 37-inch tyres with on-board tyre-pressure control; wading depth over 1 metre; locking differentials across the drivetrain; length 5,875 mm, width 2,110 mm.

Launch pricing ~£350,000 UK / ~€379,000. Declared sold out in early 2015 to preserve exclusivity — Mercedes sold more than originally anticipated — with the final customer delivery leaving Graz in May 2015.

The definitive factory six-wheeler. Originality and delivery-market documentation drive the top of the band.

Buyer's Guide

What to look for

Chassis and engine authentication

Authenticate stamped chassis and engine numbers against factory or club records. For the G 63 6×6 specifically, verify chassis identity and delivery-market documentation against Mercedes-Benz records, confirm the six-wheel-drive hardware, portal axles and on-board tyre-pressure control are original and functional, and check condition of the M157 twin-turbo V8 and 7-speed automatic on any car offered.

Body and originality

Confirm body originality, panel identity and restoration standard against a marque specialist.

Mechanical inspection and service history

Confirm continuous service history and any rebuild history for the engine, transmission and driveline against a marque specialist.

Provenance and ownership history

Restoration standard, originality of body and driveline, and any documented ownership record are the main value drivers.
