Norwegian skier Jon Olsson is famous not only for his sporting achievements but also for his collection of tuned cars. He even has an 800-horsepower Rolls-Royce Wraith coupe, and he also owns several Mercedes G-Class. One of the G-Wagons is up for sale for an incredible $800,000.
The Mercedes G-Class is indeed quite unusual. To start, it is a limited edition Mercedes-Benz G500 4×4². However, Jon Olsson wouldn’t be himself if he didn’t modify it. The tuning of the Mercedes G-Class is very original – its roof has been cut off, and the windshield has been lowered.
The athlete explained that he decided on this step so that the G-Wagon could enter the low underground parking lots of Monte Carlo. However, even a soft fabric roof is not provided.
Although the tuning did not stop there. The power of the 4.0-liter V8 twin-turbo was increased from 422 to 780 hp. It now features a loud exhaust, a winch, and tires from the six-wheeled Mercedes G63 AMG 6X6. Plus, the G-Wagon now has a camouflage paint job.
