2017 Mercedes-AMG G65

Offered from the final years of the hand-built W463 “Classic” era, this 2017 Mercedes-AMG G65 represents the apex of Mercedes’ original Geländewagen formula, combining the model’s famously durable ladder-frame construction and three locking differentials with AMG’s most charismatic powerplant. The G-Class traces its roots to the late-1970s military/utility program that evolved into one of the longest-running luxury 4x4 lines in production, and the G65 sits at the very top of that lineage as the rare V12 flagship built in limited numbers for a short run. This example shows 58,000 miles and, according to the selling dealer, was originally ordered as a personal vehicle for a family associated with a Mercedes-Benz dealership in the Southeastern US before later ownership beginning in 2020 (at approximately 23,000 miles), with accompanying service documentation from that most recent owner.

Power comes from AMG’s M279 6.0-liter twin-turbocharged V12 (factory-rated at 621 hp and 738 lb-ft of torque), paired with the AMG SPEEDSHIFT PLUS 7G-TRONIC automatic transmission and 4MATIC all-wheel drive. True to the G’s off-road architecture, it retains a low-range transfer case and three driver-selectable differential locks, while also offering modern road-going assistance features including DISTRONIC, PARKTRONIC with Parking Assist, Blind Spot Assist, and a rear-view camera. Additional technical highlights include a 25.4-gallon fuel tank, 21-inch AMG cross-spoke wheels (R12) with 295/40R21 tires, a power sliding/tilting sunroof, heated windshield, and the harman/kardon LOGIC7 surround-sound system with COMAND Online and smartphone integration. The seller notes the vehicle is largely stock, with the exception of a Fabspeed XperTune ECU software calibration (supported by supplied records) and a carbon-fiber spare tire cover.

Finished in striking factory designo Magno Night Black (matte) paint (056) over designo Red leather with a two-tone cabin theme (ZI2), this G65 was specified with an array of designo and AMG visual upgrades that underscore its halo-model status. Notable equipment from the window sticker includes the designo Exclusive Leather Package (PA6), designo Black DINAMICA headliner (FH2), AMG carbon-fiber interior trim (ZG6), carbon-fiber exterior protective strips (C95), stainless steel brush guard (C75), stainless steel running boards (T84), privacy glass (W72), and a multifunction steering wheel in two-tone leather (ZT2). Luxury amenities extend to the Rear Seat Entertainment System (EM7) with accessories noted by the seller as still sealed, plus comfort-focused features such as the Comfort Seat Package (PA1), all-season floor mats (PA2), and a 115V AC outlet in the cargo area (E47). Per the owner questionnaire, the most recent service was completed at a Mercedes-Benz dealership in April 2026, and the tires are reported as date-coded 4722 with approximately 7/32 tread remaining.]
