Had a G55 for a month -- Looked cool and sounded cool too -- but after a month, I realized it rode like crap (I then switched to the G500 springs, which if you buy one I would suggest) -- that is it did not handle well, steering was hard and vague -- and it was not too quick either. Oh, and when the first snow hit, it really handled like crap (No doubt it is a great truck for off roading but driving in new snow at 30 MPH -- NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO)

Traded in on a Range Rover Westminister - GREAT car -- no regrets - and you won't have any either.

Id take the base G wagon over a CT, just lemme have the AMG wheels. The AMG package is very nice to have though! Lotsa torque.

Its pimp but its still stuck in the 1970's. I remember when only one dealer somewhere in N Mex. I think had the sole distributor license for them and asked $100K for a base G.

I do see Cindy Crawford tooling around in hers quite a bit though. Not a bad sight for sure. Cindy in a tank top and a silver G woo hoo.
