The flashy model will only have 1,000 cars produced and at first glance, the most definitive feature is the decorations. According to the automotive firm, the model is detailed with gold accents that offer tonal contrast against the signature Manufaktur Night Black Mango paint, which is a matte black. The gilded details can be seen in the Kalaharigold mango in the form of the AMG logo and Mercedes star. Other notable elements include the car's inlays at the front and at the bumpers by the back, rounded out by the optical underride protection.
