The huge radiator grille has 2 chrome bars and a small brand logo. The bumper has LED daytime running lights, and there are also huge air intakes. The car is also equipped with a chrome-plated lip.

Specifications
The most important difference between this car is its power unit, it is more powerful than a regular one. The manufacturer installed here an atmospheric V-shaped engine with 8 cylinders, which, with a volume of 5.5 liters, produces 557 horsepower. This is a very good engine for a car of this size, allowing it to go from 0-62 mph in just 4.9 seconds, which is very good for a car of this size. The manufacturer has limited the maximum speed to 250 km/h, but for a fee it will remove this limitation. This engine certainly complies with Euro 5 standards.
The power unit operates like the regular version paired with a 7-speed gearbox. The engine consumes a lot; if you drive quietly, the internal combustion engine will consume 16 liters in the city, and 10 liters on the highway. The controls are generally good, but it's still big, so it's not perfect.

The second row is designed for 3 passengers, they will receive a large amount of comfort and heating. The third row is designed for 2 people, but there is not much space there anymore.
The driver will be content with a 4-spoke steering wheel with electrical adjustments and a small number of buttons for multimedia. The dashboard has large analog gauges and a huge on-board computer, which has a large amount of information about the car.
The center console has a relatively small display of the multimedia and navigation system, and below are the controls for controlling this system. Just below are the controls for various mechanisms and systems of the car. Next we can notice the control selector for separate climate control.
On the tunnel there is a washer for controlling multimedia, buttons for adjusting the air suspension, an armrest and cup holders under a wooden cover. The trunk here is simply huge, even with 3 rows of seats. The volume is 680 liters, but if you fold both rows, you can get 2300 liters, which is simply a huge figure.

Pros-Cons
Many people switched to the Mercedes GL 63 AMG from 200 cruisers and Lexus LX. The first impressions of owning a car are positive. It handles well, has fast dynamics, a chic appearance and a soft interior. But later, the Mercedes GL63 AMG, which has not reached the mileage and reaches 100 thousand, begins to break down due to small things. But little things in the w164 body at the price of 1/10 Solaris. Even such seemingly insignificant breakdowns as a flown antifreeze pipe, windshield wipers running over each other, or falling off holders in the cup holder - all this is very expensive to repair. Some spare parts for the Mercedes GL x164 cost the same as for a regular GL 350 diesel, and some are much more expensive.
The Mercedes GL 63 engine is good and will last a long time with proper maintenance. Replacing the radiator of a Mercedes-benz GL63, which can fail after 50 thousand kilometers, will cost $1,300.
On MB GL63 cars, oil starvation should not be allowed. It can occur from frequent use of the engine at full power. When developing a speed of over 200 km per hour, the fuel consumption of a Mercedes-Benz x164 can reach 25-30 liters per 100 km.
You need to add oil to an engine with the amg package and 4matic all-wheel drive every 2-3 thousand kilometers, and original Mercedes oil is not cheap. Replacing the pump will cost about $900 including work from an unofficial dealer. Once every 120 thousand you need to change the timing chain; it is combined with the replacement of vanes for a Mercedes GL 63 amg, the price reaches $3600.
It is better to change the suspension air cylinders in pairs; the official price is $1,700 each. The leather in the interior is of such quality that the armrests on the doors look very worn after 100 thousand miles. Reinforced brake pads do not last long from 10 to 40 thousand mileage, depending on operating conditions. Replacing pads along with discs costs about $1,500.
Price
You can buy a large car with a sporty character at a price from 65 to 95 thousand dollars, depending on the year of manufacture, mileage and condition of the car.
If you have the money to buy a Mercedes GL 63 AMG in the x164 body and to maintain it, then this car is definitely worth attention. Stunning dynamics, silence and the presence of a large interior volume will not leave even followers of the WAG concern indifferent.
