That's rather unusual of a California owner, they typically like G-Wagon daily drivers from what I noticed! I bet he had (or I hope) had seat time in a G63 AMG... although it is a unique and interesting combination of things going on.Hi Jeepers,
I want to return to the SUV realm as well. I mentioned in my introduction that I had the opportunity to drive my brother-in-laws 2014 GC 470HP SRT in Germany and it was absolute fun. The engine and exhaust are intoxicating and are bad for MPG's...when he wants to save gas he drives his Ferrari California.
Since it's his daily driver, he beats on it everyday and has had zero engine drive train issues to date. Although, while at the latest service, he did have to replace the rear fender extensions (Europe only option) which fell of twice because they are glued on with double stick tape.
I think for him it was price driven...he's a different type of bird and doesn't really like AMG's. I on the other hand do like AMG's especially with portal axles!That's rather unusual of a California owner, they typically like G-Wagon daily drivers from what I noticed!

What specifically doesn't he like about them?I think for him it was price driven...he's a different type of bird and doesn't really like AMG's. I on the other hand do like AMG's especially with portal axles!
He thinks they are status quo, at least in Germany. He likes to be different...although, the older he gets the less that is true :wink2:What specifically doesn't he like about them?
