Yuck!!

This abortion was some Califirnia suspension shop's way of totally screwing up a lady's G500 with a "lift" for mega-money.

This was discussed at length more than once over on the old forum. The owner's cousin, nephew or something like that posted and said how bad it handled, among other things.

I would not consider it to be safe on the road, much less off road.

Looks like I could tip it over with one finger. Huge waste of money.

Re: wow

Is this the same one that's been floating around the internet? You know, the one that the lady purchased and took to an autoshop where they took her for what's she's worth?

I would hate to imagine the possibility that there could possibly be two of these unsafe G-classes floating around the USA.

Re: wow

I can't believe that this thing is still floating around. It can always be sold for spare parts.

Well, the ad says "First reasonable offer". I wonder what they feel is reasonable.

I'll bet that a CarFax on this one is interesting reading. I think the current seller is the speed shop that aborted it.
