New Mercedes-AMG G63 Cabriolet Gets Suicide Doors, $1.3-Million Price Tag

Mercedes-Benz, in its infinite knowledge, has by no means made a G-Wagen Cabriolet modified by AMG. The closest it received was the 2013 G500 Final Edition, with a 388-horsepower naturally aspirated V8. Refined Marques, a customized tuner in Germany, has determined to fill the hole available in the market with an AMG-ified convertible G-Class of its personal, full with a set of cute suicide rear doorways.

Refined Marques’ Mercedes-AMG G63 Cabriolet is a one-of-20 customized creation that makes use of the brand new G63 as a base, full with that automobile’s 577-hp twin-turbo V8 engine. While the overall type of the mushy high is similar as that two-door Final Edition truck, the corporate has added two smaller doorways for the rear bench for simpler ingress and egress.

Refined Marques CEO Ahmed Al Bakry tells Motor1 that initially, the rear doorways have been designed to open historically, such as you’d see on a standard G-Class. “Then I said no, let’s make them suicide doors, because then it’ll make access easier for big passengers,” says Al Bakry.
