Mercedes-Benz GL Grand Edition - Click above for high-res image gallery
Ain't life grand? Mercedes-Benz (http://autoblog.com/make/mercedes-benz) seems to think so, as the German automaker recently introduced its Grand Edition lineup (http://www.autoblog.com/2010/12/23/mercedes-benz-sprinter-grand-edition-is-a-private-jet-sans-the-w/), starting with the Sprinter (http://autoblog.com/tag/sprinter) van, and now including the GL-Class (http://autoblog.com/model/gl-class) crossover.
Available on the entire GL range, the Grand Edition adds unique 20-inch light-alloy wheels, newly designed two-tone leather seats and black ash wood trim inside the cabin. Other grandiose cues include dark-tinted headlamps, a black grille and a redesigned front bumper that incorporates standard LED running lamps for maximum bling effect.
Prices start at €80,206 for the GL350 CDI BlueEfficiency Grand Edition - about $112,716(!) based on current exchange rates - and reach as high as €99,127 ($139,292) for the range-topping GL500.
