What's New for the 2005 Mercedes-Benz G55 AMG?
Marking its 25th anniversary this year, the 2005 Mercedes-Benz G55 AMG receives a boost in power, thanks to a 5.5-liter, supercharged V8 developing 469 horsepower and 516 lb.-ft. of torque. Free scheduled maintenance, however, has been dropped for all 2005 Mercedes models.


Advantages of the 2005 Mercedes-Benz G55 AMG:

  • Amazing off-road capability, even with standard performance tires
  • Impressive acceleration, given the vehicle's size and weight
  • Full-time four-wheel-drive with three locking diffs
  • Comfortable seats

Objections to the 2005 Mercedes-Benz G55 AMG:

  • Based on an archaic military vehicle
  • Abysmal fuel economy
  • Stratospheric price tag

Editor's Advice:
Seriously, is it a good idea to turn a 25-year-old military vehicle into an alleged performance SUV to be driven by people educated about vehicle dynamics in a country where obtaining a driver's license is about as difficult as heating up a can of Campbell's soup? We really can't think of any good reason to purchase this vehicle, except bragging rights for the most wasteful use of disposable income.
