The limited edition 500 GE was never officially offered to the public. MB marketing doubted that there was a market for a 200,000 Deutschmark 4×4. So, instead of printing brochures etc and offering it to a large audience MB salesmen in Germany casually told owners of S-Class and G-Class about the prospect of a V8, 240 HP luxury version of the G. Within one year they signed close to 500 contracts – without anyone ever seeing pictures or a vehicle on display. Only 446 pcs has left the factory, assambled by AMG, all in the same colour Amethyest blue. Almost 30 years later the 500 GE is sought after by collectors and extremely hard to find, especialy in excellent condition with low kilometers.

Die Limited Edition 500 GE wurde nie offiziell der Öffentlichkeit angeboten. MB-Marketing bezweifelte, dass es einen Markt für einen 200.000-DM-4×4 gab. Anstatt Broschüren etc. zu drucken und sie einem großen Publikum anzubieten, erzählten MB-Verkäufer in Deutschland den Besitzern der S-Klasse und der G-Klasse beiläufig von der Aussicht auf eine Luxusversion des G mit V8 und 240 PS. Innerhalb eines Jahres unterschrieben sie einen Abschluss bis zu 500 Verträge – ohne dass jemals jemand Bilder oder ein ausgestelltes Fahrzeug sieht. Nur 446 Stück haben das Werk verlassen, von AMG bemustert, alle in der gleichen Farbe Amethystblau. Fast 30 Jahre später ist der 500 GE bei Sammlern gesucht und äußerst schwer zu finden, insbesondere in hervorragendem Zustand mit geringen Kilometern.
