Sometime last year, a few Photoshop gurus got together and made some very funny “mini” versions of their favorite cars. The trend caught on, and soon lots of people were taking their favorite cars, and through the process of image manipulation, made them mini versions of themselves.
I probably shouldn't be telling you this (seeing as how I'll be attempting to procure one for myself), but if you're in the market for a new 2010 Mercedes GLK350, American Express will be giving away three of the new SUV's tomorrow via their My Wishlist contest.
This is a goofy game by the folks at Mercedes-Benz. Pilot your MB AMG CLS63 on a snow course, and try to throw snow up against the drift boards. What's the highest score you can get?
The AMG SPEEDSHIFT MCT 7-speed sports transmission is an innovative power transfer system that made its debut in the high-performance SL 63 AMG Roadster in 2008, and has also been in use in the E 63 AMG since summer 2009.
The new or modified driver assistance systems in the E-Class Cabriolet are based on state-of-the-art radar and sensor technology. They have been developed to help reduce the number of accidents caused by being too close to the vehicle in front, drowsiness and darkness.
With Jaguar, Volkswagen, and Audi all working on rivals to the banana-shaped Mercedes-Benz CLS, did you think BMW would stand on the sidelines? Of course not. Indeed, BMW is readying a stretched version of the next 6-series, which would feature four doors and four seats under a coupelike roof.
In Mercedes tuning news, MEC Design has just unveiled a new bodykit for the W216 Mercedes-Benz CL-Class. Entitled the 2FACE Bodykit, the CL styling package features a new front apron with driving and fog lights, side skirts with or without LED lighting, a new vented rear apron, and last but not least, a three-piece rear spoiler.
Oddly enough, the first image that came to mind when I witnessed the Urban Whip was the Power Wheels Barbie Cadillac Escalade®, which is strange considering I've never seen nor heard of a Power Wheels Barbie Cadillac Escalade®. I just figured if there was one, this is probably what it would look like. For curiosity's sake, I then went to the Toys "R" Us website, and lo-and-behold...
The Detroit auto show has come and gone, and has left the automotive industry with a little more to chew over. As a final wrap-up to quite possibly the most important auto show in America, we chose 10 cars that summed up the best of the show.
Another wicked batch of modified & exotic cars. Among these photos is Jason Spezza's (Ottawa Senators) new Black Mercedes Benz CLS 63 slammed with Lowenhart LSR wheels.
Check out this slick little video from AutoExpress’ as they pin the beastly yet beautiful Mercedes-Benz C63 AMG up against the new 2008 BMW V8 M3 Sedan and the Lexus IS-F.
As you'd expect from a wide body kit, the main highlights include new front and rear aprons, widened fenders in both the front and back, new side skirts, a roof and trunk spoiler and a new vented hood. Another notable change is the presence of the always popular 20-inch wheels with performance tires, while a new stainless exhaust system completes Vitt's CL package.
A week ago, I posted a video made by MSN Cars in the UK, where they compared the Mercedes GL, Audi Q7 and Range Rover V8. It seems that the Germans have seen the video somewhere (possibly here), and have thought to themselves, "Das kann ja wohl nicht wahr sein"
Lithuanian body man, Audronis Gestautas, has created a vehicle like no other.
Besides the bucket loads of PU foam and the insanely massive 30-inch chrome wheels up front and 40-inch in the rear, the interior is littered with Swarovski Crystals.
New spy photos have emerged showcasing the next-generation Mercedes-Benz CLS-Class undergoing a bit of fair weather testing. Unfortunately, the four door coupe is heavily masked with plenty of false panelling, so distinguishing its various design elements is still an impossible task. Parts of the front grille, headlights and tail lights, are however, a little more clear than they've been in the past, revealing a few subtle hints about what lies in store for the model.
While going through our inbox this early afternoon, we received an email from an astute reader by the name of Ken directing us to a recent review conducted by Jeremy Clarkson that provides another look as to what to expect from the newly-introduced Mercedes E63 AMG.
No more prototypes and mules. After months of anticipation, we finally have some actual images of the 2011 Mercedes-Benz SLS AMG. This car has much to live up to as it pays homage to the legendary Mercedes-Benz 300 SL.
If you're one of the first to get your hands on the new 2010 Mercedes-Benz E-Class and are now contemplating how best to tune your new model, you'll soon have another option to consider. Japanese tuning firm Wald has unveiled the first glimpse of their styling package for the new E, and as you can see above, it looks to provide a significantly more aggressive appearance to the sedan (judging from the front at least).
If the small sampling of photos we brought you yesterday highlighting the forthcoming Mercedes SLS AMG wasn't enough to satisfy your desire to see the new Gullwing, today we can do you one better. Mercedes AMG has launched a webspecial for the model displaying the SLS AMG in all its unmasked glory, in vastly higher quality than the small pictures we brought you yesterday.
You've read the reviews. You've seen the photos. By now, it's obvious that the Mercedes CL63 AMG is without question one of and quite possibly the most beautiful Mercedes in the current lineup.
Photographer Nick Knight, designer Gareth Pugh and top model Julia Stegner have teamed up to present "Fashion as Performance" for Mercedes-Benz Fashion Week 2010 Berlin. Featuring the new 2011 Mercedes-Benz SLS AMG and Stegner in a futuristic outfit, the campaign is brilliantly executed.
