Anderson Germany Mercedes-Benz CL65 AMG Black Edition

A menacingly good looking creation from Anderson Germany

Anderson Germany Mercedes-Benz CL65 AMG Black Edition

A generation in advance: With the CL, ANDERSON GERMANY has created a new category of vehicles which, for the first time, has combined the elegance and dynamic of a Coupé with the performance of a sports car. The high performance Coupé with the powerful V12 motor and exquisite fittings from Düsseldorf is a synonym for exclusive performance and elite style.

The increased performance should be mentioned first: The engine performance has been improved using software optimisation, sports air filters, a sports exhaust system (plasma coated) including racing catalysors and larger pulleys and now boasts a startling 670 HP.

Rest of the press release available after the break.

Brabus Releases Mercedes-Benz SLS AMG Tuning Package

With a focus on aesthetics, Brabus has taken the already beautiful SLS AMG and made it even better

Brabus Releases Mercedes-Benz SLS AMG Tuning Package

Carbon fiber, handling and ultra lightweight! That’s the guiding principle of BRABUS (Brabus-Allee, D-46240 Bottrop, phone + 49 / (0) 2041 / 777-0, fax + 49 / (0) 2041 / 777 111, Internet www.brabus.com) for refining the Mercedes SLS AMG. The exclusive sport program comprises aerodynamic-enhancement components made from carbon fiber, ultra-lightweight forged wheels, an electronically adjustable smooth-ride suspension (Ride Control) suspension, a titanium exhaust system with bypass gate, and BRABUS leather.

Extremely light yet enormously strong carbon fiber identical to the one used in Formula 1 racing was chosen as the material for the BRABUS aerodynamic-enhancement components. The components were developed in the wind tunnel. They give the gullwing car an even more striking appearance while optimizing its aerodynamic properties. All components are available either made from clear-coated carbon fiber for a true racing flair or can be painted to match or contrast with the car’s exterior color.

Rest of the release after the break.

MEC Design Release S65 AMG Replica Kit for Mercedes-Benz W221 S-Class

A stylish option for the pre-facelifted Mercedes-Benz S-Class

MEC Design Release S65 AMG Replica Kit for Mercedes-Benz W221 S-Class

MEC Design may not be as well known as Brabus or Lorinser, but they clearly have a heart for anyone with a thick enough wallet.  A customer sporting a 2007 S550 wanted to refresh the car, reflecting the styling of a current S65 AMG.  MEC Design could only oblige, coming up with a conversion that includes their version of S65 AMG bumpers, 20-inch three-piece MEC Xtreme III wheels, a high performance exhaust system and an ELS lowering module.  In the interior is an MEC Design steering wheel and floor mats with leather edging.

We noticed the lack of the LED daytime running lights in the headlamps, but we're sure that could be retrofitted if you really wanted.  Check out more photos after the jump.

Vorsteiner V6E Aero Package for 2010 Mercedes-Benz E63 AMG

Another amazing styling package from Vorsteiner for the new E-Class

Vorsteiner V6E Aero Package for 2010 Mercedes-Benz E63 AMG

Vorsteiner has been on a rampage recently with several aero package releases for all the hot new Euros in America. Their newest release is for the 2010 Mercedes-Benz E63 AMG and consists of a front lip spoiler, rear trunk spoiler and rear diffuser all in lightweight carbon fiber goodness. Vorsteiner paired the luxury sedan with a set of V-308 3-Piece Concave Forged wheels. The overall package is clean and simple yet lending a much sportier overall look to the E63 AMG that already has the performance to back it up.

Vorsteiner felt that photos didn't do the entire package justice, so check out the really nice video after the jump.

Freshly Squeezed Mercedes-Benz E63 AMG

Lovin' this car!

Freshly Squeezed Mercedes-Benz E63 AMG

I admit it took a while for the new W212 E-Class to stick with me, but now I'm a huge fan.  Especially after seeing this one.  Orange isn't normally known to be compatible with luxury cars, but damn - it just looks fantastic on this AMG E63.  The carbon fiber accents and black highlights really set the car off and I would definitely be first on the list if I could afford one of these.  Apparently AMG Performance Studio built it for a customer; they're known to customize to whatever the customer wants with AMG quality.  Check out more pics of this beautiful ride after the break.

Mercedes SLS AMG Matte Gold

AMG Desert Gold

Mercedes SLS AMG Matte Gold

Matt gold on the aluminum body together with striking highlights in high-gloss black – an extraordinary and highly attractive combination. With its matt silk surface, "AMG Desert Gold" further accentuates the sporty appearance of the Gullwing model. All the decorative and mounted features that are in shining chrome or Silver Shadow in the standard SLS AMG have been given a deep-black paint finish by AMG's designers. Whether for the Mercedes star and the trim strip on the cross fin at the front, the fins on the bonnet and flanks, the filler cap or all the model plates: high-gloss black is used everywhere, ensuring a striking contrast with the matt silk sheen of the gold paintwork. The black-painted AMG light-alloy wheels in size 9.5 x 19 at the front and 11.0 x 20 at the rear are embellished with a golden ring on the rim flange.
