by For those who courageously fight on the resorts of the Côte d’Azur, Mansory has prepared a new “front-line” vehicle — the Mercedes G-Class Speranza Cabrio. Yes, yes, this is the very same “Gelik” (G-Wagen) that had its roof mercilessly chopped off so that sun-scorched shoulders would have more room to tan.
And what else does a true warrior of the “Monaco” battalion need, who fights daily for a spot near the casino? 820 horsepower, 1150 N∙m of torque — to quickly escape from journalists who unexpectedly catch them shopping. Acceleration to 100 km/h in 4 seconds? Perfect for making it to the discounts at local boutiques.
The interior? White and red leather, carbon fiber, separate rear seats — because really, who wants to sit cramped when transporting… well, let’s say, bags from Hermes. And rear doors that open against the direction of travel, like in a Rolls-Royce? That’s for special charm, so everyone can see who’s the boss here.
The presentation, of course, is nowhere else but at the Top Marques exhibition in Monaco. Because where else should one show toys for those who believe patriotism is a photo with a flag in a story, and the main front is parties at yacht clubs.
P.S. Just in case: Mansory Speranza translates as “Hope”. One wants to believe that real hope is now being born not among oligarchic convertibles, but among those in armor, not in a cabriolet.
