Ladies and gentlemen, I give you... the Mercedes-Benz G500 Suzuki Sidekick Edition.
Ha, kind of looks like it
One of my dream cars!!!!
14 hours ago and video has been uploaded now
Ladies and gentleman, the quirks and features strike again 😂😂 btw u have my dream job and u pretty much ace it Doug

Doug is the type of guy who describes a car as “very ugly” and then buys it
Ryan • same
then pays $100,000 for it*
He's a consistent man : he has shit taste in clothes AND cars
😂 😂 😂
I'm curious what his wife looks like...
Doug is the type of guy who emails himself about a cool car in Los Angeles.
I love that everyone uses the "Doug is the type of guy..."
You mean San Diego
Seriously underrated comment
"hey Doug, theres this car you should see"
"I think I'll buy it. thanks, doug."
Doug is the type of guy to rent his own car on Turo, and then register a complaint on himself...
Doug: "Mercedes G Class is the stupidest car on sale"
Also Doug: *Buys the even more stupid version of G Class*
Right??
He ABSOLUTELY ROASTED the g wagon in one of his reviews. It was basically just 25min of him talking about how poorly built and useless it is...... and now he owns one 😂
@@robertburton8055 bruh
Re-sale value maybe?? Or his wife likes i maybe? lol
He was talking about the newer g class wagons. Over priced pieces of garbage.
The car he bought came out in 1999. It was a different time and this car is unique and quirky.
What a stupid car man thats all i can say apart from dumb as a box of rocks springs to mind, !!
Doug: "I don't like showy cars."
Also Doug: *owns a Mercedes G500, a Ford GT, a Mercedes E63 AMG Wagon and a Land Rover Defender. Also formerly owned a Range Rover, an Aston Martin Vantage, a Ferrari 360, a Dodge Viper, a Porsche 911, a Hummer H1, a Nissan Escargot and more*
Edelweiss dont forget the cube and a cts v wagon lmaoo
@@mithex8414 Yep, there's more, can't remember everything lol.
And an r32 gtr
i wouldn’t call the e class wagon showy from its appearance but maybe the sound
and his first volvo ever

@@haroonmustafa5821 I say noice.

It is so ugly, I now need to destroy my laptop, burn it, and scatter its ashes to the wind.
Doug: this is absurdly overpriced
Also Doug: i bought it
Also Doug again: its ugly
he knows it's an investment, he's gonna sell it for like 150 to 200k in 10 years or more. wonder why no one talks about this.
just like his defender which skyrocketed in value recently
Lol this reveal video was a bit confusing to me. I don't know whether to say congrats or sorry for your purchase?
Looks just.like my 99 sl

He is married?
@@shrekbethiccerthanasniccer1432 yes, but he doesn't have kids.

@@snakeeyes9246 now he has
What's interesting about this car is that you can barely tell that it's 21 years old as the design has changed so minimally.
"i really dont like cars that are showy"
*has owned aston martin, ford gt, dodge viper*
And a Ferrari!
Eh the Aston wasn't really showy
Compare him to Shmee, Superspeedersrob, vehicle virgins? Doug buys a car from 99, & before that a 2005 Ford GT. Everyone else buying bright purple 2020 Lamborghinis & McLarrens
@@slightlyevolvedtard This exactly. Doug may have bought some big, expensive, stylish cars, but they've all (with the exception of the Ferrari, obviously) been on the more subtle end of things. An Aston to a non-car person just looks like another silver luxury car. A Viper is not a super uncommon sight, and at the end of the day is still just a Dodge; mostly people might just go 'oh, cool' to it and move on. The Ford GT's probably the least subtle, but even that doesn't exactly jump out at people unless they're paying attention.
As opposed to a high-end Lamborghini, which is just about the opposite of subtle. Not that I consider that a problem personally, but that's not what Doug is after.
Hummer H1 :)
First glance: where’s the rest of it?
markiangooley well...
Car: *ugly
Doug: *hates it
Doug: *ILL TAKE YOUR ENTIRE STOCK*
clearly it’s an investment and not his dream car. he knows they’ll go up in value
@@yammmit watch the Latest video

@@じょず you mean doing a lot of 69 to pay for the most ridiculous car ever designed
Clearly he was talking about the two door Cabrio look. His changes were factory parts found on later models.
As I understood it, he didn’t make those changes himself, it was like that when he bought it
Doug in 2017: "G Wagon is the dumbest car ever"
Doug in 2019: buys a cabriolet G Wagon
Cabriolet!
Doug's character development arc
He said the modern ones. This is 20 years old
I think he meant the Mercedes-AMG G65.
He said he was looking into buying one actually but the reputation that follows G Wagon owners isn't suitable for him. I believe he's finally found the G Wagon that correctly suits him !

Came here to say this 😂. I know what he means though and am just kidding-I too prefer a more stock look.
He said on Reddit that most people just think it’s a Mustang (somehow)- only car people recognize it.

“I don’t like cars that stand out”, said NO Ford GT owner ever...
One did
😂😂
GT is not ludicrous as some cars, but people talking about your car everywhere you go does get annoying and he said he doesn't like the part. The GT is still a practical fun driving experience and he uses it, so that's probably a decent trade off the the attention it gets.
I remain shocked by how many (non-car) people dismiss the GT as "just a Ford." It's unbelievable how frequently people will see the car and just move on immediately; it's just a Ford, it doesn't say Lamborghini on it, it can't be that special.
With that said, car people do notice it everywhere I go, it does get a lot of attention, and I don't drive it much.
Doug DeMuro - if it were Just a Ford you wouldn't have the immobilizer which caused those issues.
Just saw one of these in Geneva, Switzerland and I've been trying to explain to my friend just how rare these are! Couldn't believe my eyes when I saw it, the look on my face you would've thought I saw a Bugatti!😂
That headlight bean adjuster is on all cars here in the UK. Its so you can adjust the beam based on if the car is fully loaded or not as this changes the angle of the car and thus the lights
17:31 Doug you’re supposed to use your foot and slam the red piece of the lever down. Mercedes did think of that!

Agreed
nah i bet he reads the comments
@John Doe stfu
Hello Doug, wasn´t the red back part of the latch made in order to open the seat with your feet?
20:56 That's a mandatory headlight levelling toggle all cars in Europe with incandescent bulbs must have. It's to level the light beam if you're carrying a load. Xenon and LED headlight must be self levelling with mandatory headlight washers.
Headlight washers are only mandatory on xenon headlights because of the heat they generate.
LED headlights don’t require mandatory washers.
And it is an ancient invention you would have tought demuro would know that. Even my '83 civic has it.
@@rolux4853 Mea culpa, I based my comment on the fact that both of my cars with LED headlights have washers.
This is going to turn into a “Hoovies Garage” purchase.

Kermit of Rivia speak for yourself
Bot stole your comment
@Kermit of Rivia doug tops Ken bruh hes the new Ken doll of mercedes
Some quirky info: I wonder if the headlight washers and headlight beam height adjustments aren't so much features of this Mercedes, as they're features of your car being built for the Swiss and European market. I believe headlight washers have been mandated by EU since forever (at least in Nordic countries), 'cause it's one of the most obvious identifying markers to differentiate Nordic, EU and US imported cars here in Norway, and I had headlight beam height adjustment on my 2001 Ford Mondeo, at least, so I imagine it's the same story here.
As much as he said hated that G65, you know he secretly LOVED IT!!! This is his FIFTH G review!
well, it is by far the coolest model family on sale. modern cars basically drive themselves, those cars are for drivers
Doug: "The Mercedes G is the stupidest car on sale."

Rob Basque let’s not forget the convertible roof lol
Also Doug 1 year ago on Doug and Hoovie: "Why would I ever buy a G wagon?"
21:01 that's mandated in Europe. Every single car with halogen headlights has it. Its not for offroading. My 93 Laguna has it and its to not blind oncoming traffic in case your car is loaded and the tail hangs down
Yep. And with HID/xenon headlights, it has to be automatic. A lot of people need to learn this, so they stop blinding the hell out of everyone.
Thomas Smith how so? It’s common sense not to blind oncoming traffic or cars in front
@@mercury6765 yeah, but people load their cars up in the back, without realising they could dip their headlights with the simple flick of a switch, so they blind oncoming traffic with their low beams that are now aimed at the stars.
@@thomassmith6027 ridiculous that headlights have to be designed not to blind oncoming traffic?
@@mercury6765 bcoz it's funny as hell to blind other drivers 😁😁😁😁😝😝😝😝
You can't adjust the lights higher. The switch only adjusts them down. It's used for when the car is heavily loaded in the rear, or if a heavy trailer is weighing down the two hook, thus raising the front of the car. To avoid blinding oncoming traffic you can adjust the lights down manually.
Doug will always be the most wholesome and entertaining car reviewer on this site

@@ultraguy8771 that thing is just atrocious, the memories ugh
Lol the very origins of the SUV is a two door cabrio so he's talking complete mince. Willys Jeep and then the Jeep CJs, Land Rovers, Toyota Land Cruiser, the list goes on...
Aaron M faxx
Aaron M ????? The original sedan was a roofless horse buggy with a motor in it, consumer tastes change. Very few people buy NEW cab or two door suvs.
“Do the roof”, and that music! I’m having a cigarette after.
The red nozzle on the lever for folding the front seat is needed for passengers at the rear, so that you can easily notice it and press it with your boot, leave the car.
Could you imagine spending $100,000+ on a used, almost 20 year old, 2 door convertible, SUV and telling your wife about it with a RUclips video?

Good God, Doug. At 43 years old, this is the most obvious & obnoxious humble brag I've ever seen.
I love how that roof is singlehandedly responsible for causing everything that's wrong with this car, but it's also the only thing that makes it so quirky and interesting.
17:33 they had a simple solution just step on the red thing on the lever and it would release the seat
Glad I’m not the only one who saw that.
Come on, Doug. It’s simple.

the red lever extension is exactly for the rear seat passengers. You are supposed to reach it with your foot
I had a buddy who loved and bought “quirky” vehicles. He was always broke...
“THIS is a midlife crisis.”

And only at 31. That's a shame
Lmao
"There's no way to get out of the back seats!"
Dude, see that little red knob thing? Put your foot on it.
oh yeah, its even easier to put the seats up from behind
Thought the same, actually
Remember this is from the guy that tries to get to the rear seats of every 2 door car he gets through the driver side where the steering wheel is.
Doug is blind...
EXACTLY ! In fact, it's a really great design !
Mercedes that aren't primarily designed for the US market all only blow cold out of the center vents. This is because of the German preference for frischluft. I forget which model it is, but one of the MB owner's manuals said this is for "warm body, cool head" as if that is a phrase we've all heard, and simply instructed you to close the middle vents if you don't like that.
And you are correct, that sticker only appears in the 463 chassis cars. That's not always what the part number matching the chassis means (it just means that's when they first used it).
The way Doug says “THIS” is iconic
*Doug:* buys a G-wagon Cabriolet
*LR Defender:* "am I a joke to you"
lol the way he was criticizing it and making it seem like this is his daily commute care makes me think he would answer "yes" to that question/meme.
LR Defender is one of the only cars that make this car look practical. It’s so practical! Compared to a Defender.
Doug: “this is literally the dumbest car I’ve ever seen. You’d have to be a total idiot to want this complete absurdity.” Also Doug: “I’ll take it.”
Unless you save money all your life to buy this one, Yes!
That 2nd switch is for levelling out your headlights while pulling a trailer or carrying heavy loads...not for illuminating boulders....
I'm pretty sure the seat-lever is intended to be activated by rear seat passengers with their foot. That's why there is a red, rubber cap to make it more visible to the rear-seat occupant. But then, I'm not a professional car-feature pointer-outer.
(At 17' 40"): Doug, to lift the front seat to get out of your G while sitting in the back seat, you can press the lever with your left foot (if you are sitting in the left rear passenger seat) or with your right foot (if you are sitting in the left rear passenger seat). The lever has a red plastic cover and it is easy to identify for this purpose!
When I first saw the lever, I thought, "Why is the other end bright red?" I figured it out before he had the seat fully retracted. Sometimes I don't know what his problem is. He could also Google stuff, e.g. what were the other door switches in the Bentley Turbo R?
Did Doug ever figure this out? Doug is always so spot on noticing every Quirk, when he not only doesn't recognize one, but points out a flaw when a quirk to solve it exists is a rare easter egg in these videos.
It looks like a car that dictators stand on and get shot during parade.
Well, I think it is..
r/oddlyspecific
LOL
You're thinking of the Popemobile.
compaq deskpro O shit, is that my subconscious tells me?
Actually the headlight adjustmenst is mandatory in germany and other european countries. For when you load your car and the headlights shine up you can adjust them to normal level again so you dont dazzle oncoming traffic.
Doug, to move the front seats forward so that you can climb out of the car from the rear seats (see 17'26") simply press the red cap at the rear end of the actuacting lever with your left foot if you are seating in the rear left seat or with your right foot if you are seating in the rear right seat... it's ver simple, that's why Mercedes put a red cap at the end of the lever, to catch your attention!
