The infamous G-Wagon is not “G” until you trick it out with some wheels, accents and maybe some “go-fast” parts. Hamann, a well-known German tuner company, has done just that.

The Mercedes Benz G55 AMG is nothing hot off of the press but it continues to be that “fly” vehicle rolling down the street that tends to turn several heads. Hamann has taken several cars, including many German makes, and turned them into likable monsters. The Hamann Typhoon G-ride or Gelandewagen, is pimped out with 600hp by means of a HM600 power kit that includes new engine electronics, new pulley sets and transmission cooler.

With a 0-60mph time of 5.1 seconds and top speed reaching 162mhp, you can justifiably say that this is one Fast G-Ride.

Other Hamann accents and customized add-ons include a 24-piece carbon fiber trim set, velour upholstery, illuminated stainless steel door sill plats, aluminum pedals, LED daytime running lights, six tailpipe exhaust system, roof-mounted spoiler, revised rear bumper /w diffuser and 24-inch wheels.
