Two machines, one design – and a statement that ignores the sky as the limit.
With the latest special edition, the Carlex x ScaleWings G-51, Carlex literally gives wings to his creative development.
Mercedes AMG G 63
In cooperation with ScaleWings, a company specializing in replicas of the legendary P-51 Mustang fighter aircraft, an exclusive duo was produced that will attract attention not only on the road but also in the air.
Design meets legend
The basis for the project is the current AMG G63, an off-roader that, in terms of style, luxury and Performance is already at the upper end of the scale. But Carlex goes one step further – The G-51 project is more than just a tuned G, it is a homage to aviation history and a masterpiece of craftsmanship.
The G 63 version comes in the “Emerald Racer” look: deep Racing Green, highly polished aluminum and black and white stripes run through the design of the G 63 as well as through the aircraft.
The cabin is completely in brown Vintage leather held – at the car as well as in the cockpit of the P-51 replica. Even the Air outlets in the cabin are reminiscent of aircraft construction, as well as the hand-riveted aluminum roof of the G 63.
Technically, the G 63 remains a beast
Under the hood, the 4,0-liter V8 biturbo with mild hybrid system works as usual. Performance is 585 hp (577 + 20 hp boost) and 850 NmThe sprint from 0 to 100 km/h is achieved in 4,4 seconds, the maximum speed is 240 – as long as you manage not to just admire the design the whole time.
Limited collector's items with flying sister
The P-51 Mustang replicas from ScaleWings are known for their attention to detail – Carbon constructions with rivets, air intakes and surfaces like the originalFor the project, the aircraft's design was adapted to that of the G 63. Paint, decorative stripes, side pipes with six outlets per side – everything was mirroredThe result: An identical pair that visually and emotionally complemented.
No single pieces – only pairs
The clou: Car and airplane only exist togetherThree such duos of the "Emerald Racer" are planned, with further versions such as the "Shadow Comet" and "Crimson Phantom" to follow. The price? No official announcement – but it is highly likely that it will be in the seven-digit range.
Conclusion: More than just a show car
The project shows what is possible when design is translated not only into cars, but also into airplanes. It is a work of art on wheels and wings, which deliberately goes against the mainstream of colorful bodykits and exaggerated forms. Instead: elegance, history, and genuine craftsmanship.
