Not a fan. I'd rather have a CTT or ML63.

I would love one for the sole reason to **** off eco-hippies.

But as far as logic is concerned, it's a kind of dumb model because the G400 CDi is so much better at everything it's supposed to do, unless of course, the purpose IS to **** off environmentalists or scare people with the sidepipes.

a friend has a convertible G wagon that rocks. what guys don't know about these cars over the Cayenne's is they handle out of the box. i followed one through a twisty 50 mile corridor one time that held 80mph plus the entire way. 5000lbs or whatever they are it almost never showed body roll a bit. unfortunately for Porsche the Cayenne is not that calibre. the G wagons are a big box but they move out. probably the best Mercedes built for the price tag.

It looks robust plus they are built in a military factory in austria and not with the other mb's back in stuttgart. The G wagon is handmade too.
