Hello All, The time has come for me to part ways with my beloved 2004 Mercedes G500 SUV. I recently began driving a long distance to work, and this car no longer fits my lifestyle. I purchased this G back in 2018 and began an extensive restoration partnered with a reputable body shop in San Francisco. While at the shop, an extensive amount of work was complete to make this G look and feel like its brand new.
