Mercedes-Benz G63 AMG 6x6 Spotlight (Yellow) (07RN-020)

07RN-020 is a model of a Mercedes-Benz G-Class W463 1st gen, namely a G 63 AMG 6x6, painted in Solar Beam Yellow. The Era Car Model was inspired by a unique G63 6x6 in that it was a 2016 model (production run from 2013-2015), which means it is likely a converted G 63, and not an original 6x6.

The G-Class W463, 1st generation was in production from 1990 to 2018, when it was substituted by the W463, 2nd generation (some media erroneously refer to this model as the W464). The model started as G-Wagen but in 1994 the name was changed to G-Class. The vehicle is manufactured by Magna Steyr in Austria, and sold by Mercedes-Benz. The model features 3 electrically controlled locking differentials and its power output ranges from 93hp to 621hp. It was offered in a variety of body styles including 2 and 4 door cabriolets, and a 6 wheel pick up truck. Curiously there is a different G-Class also being sold (W461). While the W463 is catered to the consumers who seek more creature comforts and better driving dynamics, the W461 is built specifically for military, public authorities, and non-governmental organisations. Both the W463 and the W461, are evolutions of the older W460, which entered the market in 1979.

The G 63 AMG 6x6 was produced from 2013 to 2015 to mark the 30th anniversary of the model production. It had 6x6 portal axles, all of them receiving torque from the engine through 5 electronically controlled locking differentials. The body was stretched to accommodate the extra set of wheels, as well as the new pick-up truck style. It had the same engine of the 4 wheel G 63 AMG, producing the same 536hp. The G 63 AMG 6x6 also had a built in compressor allowing it to deflate or inflate the tires to adapt to different environments. Despite being very expensive, Mercedes-Benz, unexpectedly, sold more than 100 units.

The source of inspiration for the model is unique in that it was not an original 6x6, but instead it was converted from a 2016 G 63 AMG. The Era Car model matches the paint job off its real counterpart almost flawlessly. The body is painted in Solar Beam Yellow, with the roof, sided mirrors, front bumper, back bumper, and side trim line in black. In addition the Era Car modeled the wood finish on the bed, the chrome finishing on the piping and side sills, and the carbon fiber fender flares. And continuing with the attention to detail, the Era Car model also used the grey finishing on the authentic wheels like the real counterpart, instead of the more traditional red, and even incorporated some chrome on the steering wheel. However there are some visible differences between the model and the real vehicle. First, the chrome front bumper bar is absent from the model. Secondly, the carbon fiber pattern on the hood, and the two back bumper chrome bars are not present on the real vehicle, however they seem to exist in the version modified by Brabus, so that is the source of inspiration. And lastly the four round headlamps on the roof bar, are also not present on the real vehicle, however they do exist in the version modified by Mansory, called the Gronos, so that is the source of inspiration. As such the Era Car vehicle although closely matches the real counterpart, also draws inspiration from the tuner scene, namely Brabus and Mansory. A detailed engine bay, tinted windows, and the painted exhaust on the underside combine to further improve the look of the model.

This model is very similar to 07RF-019, with some small differences. Front and back bumpers, roof, and side mirrors are now in body color, which is white. The rims have their original red details instead of grey. And the interior now features bits of white details on the seats and steering wheel.

In the table below you can see the dimensions of the model. Consider some margin of error, given how small the units are, and the difficulty of capturing accurate measurements without damaging the model.
