Golden paint, 900 horses, and a stretched cabin, Mansory’s “World Class Grand Entrée” turns the G-Class into the ultimate rolling flex.

Mansory Golden G-Class – Key Points

900 hp and 1,200 Nm from Mansory’s re-worked 4.0-litre V8 biturbo
0–100 km/h in 3.3 s, top speed electronically limited to 250 km/h
Wheelbase stretched 20 cm; massive new trunk and limo-like rear cabin
Hundreds of LED “star-sky” lights and a roof-mounted start button inside
24-inch FD.15 wheels, 295/30R24 tyres, and an optional armoured spec
Power bump vs stock AMG G63: +323 hp, +350 Nm, 1.2 s quicker to 100 km/h

Look, the Mercedes-AMG G63 is already the automotive equivalent of a heavyweight champ rocking a tux. But Mansory clearly decided the tux needed to be 24-karat gold, and have a rocket pack strapped to the back.

Enter the “World Class Grand Entrée,” a name as subtle as the SUV itself. Straight from Mansory’s official spec sheet, this G-Class now thumps out 900 horsepower and a frankly ridiculous 1,200 Nm of torque. If you’re keeping score, that’s a 56 percent power jump over the showroom G63. Mash the throttle and the 2.6-ton cube lunges to 100 km/h in 3.3 seconds, a full 1.2 seconds quicker than Stuttgart’s own effort. Top speed? A governed 250 km/h, because apparently someone at Mansory thought restraint was cute.

Of course, numbers only tell half the story; the other half is dipped in gold. Mansory covers the Geländewagen in a gloss-gold finish so loud it probably reflects Wi-Fi. Then they stretch the wheelbase by 20 centimetres between the C- and D-pillars, carving out a lounge-like rear cabin and a trunk big enough to swallow several Rimowa suitcases plus the ego that comes with them.

Swing open the rear doors and it’s less SUV, more VIP suite. Individual rear thrones flank a fully customisable centre console, while the roof lining detonates into a “star-sky” array of hundreds of LEDs. Even the start/stop button migrates to the headliner, press it like you’re firing up a private jet. Underpinning the theatre are 24-inch FD.15 forged wheels wrapped in 295/30 rubber. Carbon-fibre aero pieces try mostly in vain to add subtlety, while an optional armoured conversion reminds us that anyone who daily-drives a gold 900-hp G-Wagon might have enemies.

Yet, for all the shock value, Mansory publishes real-world figures: combined fuel use sits at 14.7 l/100 km with 350 g/km of CO₂. Good luck with the car taxes on that… oh wait this is a gold g-glass, never mind… still efficiency was never the point with such a monster. The brief was maximum bragging rights, and on that metric the World Class Grand Entrée scores a perfect 10. So is it necessary? Absolutely not. Will it dominate every valet line from Dubai to Beverly Hills? Without breaking a sweat. And if you have the means, there’s probably no faster way to turn a G-Class into pure meme material, and still blow the doors off most super-SUVs while you’re at it.

Oh, I forgot and if all of that wasn’t enough… it also has suicide doors, because why not?
