The Only V-12-Powered Mercedes 6x6 G-Wagen Is Up for Auction

Think you’ve seen every wild Mercedes G-Class variant? Think again. A one-of-a-kind 2017 Mercedes-AMG G65 6x6—the only one in the world to pair a twin-turbo V-12 with six-wheel drive—has surfaced on Bring a Trailer. This is not a factory build. It’s a custom creation from Jeep Monsters, a Ukrainian shop known for turning already outlandish vehicles into rolling statements.
The truck’s backstory is as dramatic as its looks. The build was interrupted when Russia invaded Ukraine in 2022. With troops advancing on Zhytomyr Oblast, the team hid the partially completed G-Wagen in a shipping container, crushing a trailer in the process. S.
-market G65, this Gelandewagen got a full Brabus carbon fiber widebody kit, a snorkel (giving it a Yellow Submarine vibe), and acres of leather and carbon fiber inside. 0-liter V-12 pumps out 621 horsepower and 738 pound-feet of torque, routed through a seven-speed automatic and a dual-range transfer case.
Portal axles, underbody plating, locking differentials, and a central tire inflation system (currently non-functional) round out the hardware.
Let’s be honest: this truck isn’t about off-road capability. It’s about the statement. And that statement is loud, yellow, and chrome. With Solarbeam Yellow paint and enough Brabus parts to make a show car blush, it’s built to turn heads—and maybe even catch the attention of someone on the International Space Station.
The auction ends June 12. If you want to own the biggest, flashiest G-Wagen ever made, this is your chance.
