A heavily customised one-off based on the Mercedes-AMG GT 4-Door Coupe, created with musician will.i.am and West Coast Customs. The rear doors were removed and replaced by scalloped rear-hinged suicide doors, and the nose was grafted with a G-Class-style face. Badging adds a bear to the three-pointed star. Premiered at the 2022 Formula 1 Miami Grand Prix to raise funds for STEAM education, and documented in the six-part 'Drive' series shown at Cannes 2022.
