Rarity and low production numbers of the G55

A theme among knowledgeable sellers is how few W463 AMGs were built each year, with estimates of roughly 100-150 G55s per year in 2010-2011 and sub-1,000 units annually overall. The car's improbable 13-year-plus production run after a planned 2005 US finale is repeatedly likened to Porsche continuing the 964 unchanged for decades.
