2008 Mercedes-Benz G-Class

Wow!! A 2008 Mercedes Benz G55 AMG with under 89k miles!! This SUV is very special in many ways from the rugged suspension with its multiple positions to its unique, ardcore construction. This Mercedes was designed to take on all driving conditions, o matter what. This 2008 is loaded with many factory options plus a custom matte finish professionally done here at Onyx Motorsports. This car has plenty of features including navigation and alcantara headliner. The Mercedes G500 is motivated by a 5.0-liter V8 that produces 292 horsepower and 336 pound-feet of torque. The G55 AMG has a supercharged 5.4-liter V8 capable of 493 hp and 516 lb-ft of torque, nd it's enough to propel the heavy SUV from zero to 60 mph in an estimated 5.4 seconds. The G500 comes with a seven-speed automatic transmission, hile the G55 AMG retains a five-speed auto. Both G-Class models come standard with four-wheel drive and a two-speed transfer case controlled by a console-mounted switch. With a 50/50 torque split and electromechanically locking center, ear and front differentials, he G-Class is Mercedes-Benz's most capable off-road vehicle. Properly equipped, he G is capable of towing 7,000 pounds. Both 2008 Mercedes G-Class models come standard with antilock brakes, raction and stability control, ull-length side curtain airbags and rear parking sensors. Side torso airbags are not available, nd the rear center seating position has only a lap belt. The G-Class interior received a mild refresh last year. Buttons and dials on the center console have been updated to more current Mercedes-Benz standards, lthough the often-confusing last-generation COMAND interface system remains. The lengthy standard features list bestows a luxurious environment, ut the truckish, pright driving position may be a turn-off for those used to today's more carlike SUV cabins. Rear cargo capacity falls short of full-size sport utilities at 80 cubic feet, hile the swinging cargo door is heavy because of its full-size spare tire and its stainless steel cover. The 2008 Mercedes-Benz G-Class is a truck-based SUV originally designed for military activities, nd it drives like it. Although the two modern V8 engines move the G-wagen with impressive force, n-road handling and ride leave much to be desired. With its tall, oxy body, he G exhibits significant body roll, hile its front and rear solid-axle suspension is better suited for tackling rugged off-road hills than it is for cruising through Beverly Hills. Meanwhile, he old-school recirculating-ball steering offers limited feedback at higher speeds, nd the stiff gas pedal requires too much effort, aking cruise control a frequent friend on highway journeys. On the bright side, he Mercedes-Benz G-Class is surprisingly quiet on such journeys despite having the aerodynamic attributes of a shipping crate.
