Yes the 2013 has frame bracket set up for towing. 2009-2012 are not set for towing from the factory.
2013 has the updated interior.
2013+ can only use diff lockers in low range
2015 is the last year of the naturally aspirated big V8, in 2016 they went to a smaller V8 with twin turbo chargers.
I would consider the 2015 to be the best of the new G550s. Naturally aspirated and set up for towing.
I would consider 1998-2000 to be the best 463 of all time, but most are higher mileage and worse for the wear. Naturally aspirated V8, manual transfer case shifter, minimal can-bus, classic interior (down side too), about as capable as a brand new G550 (except no ESP, ETS). Nice cars if you don't mind a project.
