Gold Mansory G-Wagen gets 537kW.

Gold Mansory G-Wagen gets 537kW.

  • Mansory’s latest Mercedes-AMG G 63 produces 537kW and 1000Nm.
  • The P720 build adds matte gold paint, wheels and bodywork details.
  • Interior changes include beige leather, LED lighting and a starlight headliner.

Mansory has taken another swing at the Mercedes-AMG G 63, and this one is not exactly trying to sneak past the neighbours.

The tuner’s latest G-Wagen build wears matte gold paint across almost every visible exterior surface, backed by a full body kit and a power upgrade. The result is called the P720, which gives away the headline number before anyone has even had time to process the colour.

Gold rush, G-Wagen style

The exterior changes are about as subtle as a marching band in a library.

Mansory has fitted a reworked front grille, new air intakes, a chin spoiler and a more aggressive bonnet, all finished in the same matte gold shade.

The look continues down the sides, where flared wheel arches, new side steps, distinctive tailpipes and aftermarket wheels all carry the same colour theme. At the rear, Mansory adds a roof-mounted spoiler, a new spare wheel cover and a redesigned bumper with extra LED tail-lights.

Whether that reads as luxury or excess will depend entirely on the viewer. Either way, it is hard to accuse Mansory of undercommitting.

Beige cabin, because restraint exists

Inside, things are marginally calmer.

The cabin has been retrimmed in beige leather, which gives the G-Class a softer, more traditional luxury feel than the exterior might suggest.

That said, Mansory has not gone completely quiet. There is a starlight-style headliner, illuminated and stitched door panel sections, plus LED backlighting. The engine start/stop button has also been moved to the headliner, because apparently reaching the dashboard was too conventional.

It is still a Mansory cabin, then. Just one wearing a slightly better poker face.

More power for the gold brick

The standard Mercedes-AMG G 63 is hardly short of performance, but Mansory has upgraded the 4.0-litre twin-turbocharged V8 anyway.

Output rises to 537kW and 1000Nm, giving this gold-wrapped SUV the muscle to match its visual volume. Mansory has not disclosed acceleration figures, but with that much torque and AMG’s already potent base hardware underneath, it should be properly brisk for something shaped like a bank vault.

Mansory has not disclosed pricing or production numbers for this build yet. Given the company’s usual clientele, though, the answer is unlikely to involve restraint in any measurable form.
