September 13, 2025
Rare G-Wagons are back! From the Unicorn Spec 2008 G280PUR to the only six-speed G55 Cabriolet and turbo diesel G300s, explore limited edition models and learn how to secure these collectible trucks.
The legendary 2008 G280PUR, famously known as the “Unicorn Spec,” is back for sale. This truck captured attention for its unique build and rarity. The current owner has driven it just under 1,000 miles, registered it, and reports zero issues. If you’re looking for a collectible G-Wagon that’s truly special, this is your chance to own one of Joe Gocher’s personal favorites.
The classic 1991 G300 turbo diesel is still available for a limited time before it heads to Bring a Trailer. This truck is perfect for beach cruising, mountain drives, or top-down adventures. With its rugged diesel engine, it’s fun, reliable, and ready to go. Current ballpark value: roughly $85K, but serious offers are considered.
For collectors, “Ruby” is a rare find: the only six-speed manual G55 AMG Cabriolet in existence. This cabriolet is tucked safely in inventory but available for serious buyers. Experience the thrill firsthand by test driving this unique G-Wagon with Alliance Auto Care’s personalized service.
Another standout is the Green G300 turbo diesel with the OM606 engine, featuring an incredible overland build. Though it has garnered interest, it remains available for buyers with realistic offers. This truck is also slated for Bring a Trailer, so acting now ensures you can claim it before it goes online.
All these trucks are available on-site, and Alliance Auto Care makes it easy to fly in for a test drive. From pickup at the airport to personalized inspections, they handle everything to get you behind the wheel of your dream G-Wagon.
