The new Performance Studio special edition model successfully eliminates 2009 ML 63 AMG's one and only weak point: lack of luxury touches in its otherwise gorgeous interior.

"For roughly $300,000, the SL65 AMG Black Series is significantly different from the $198,175 SL65 AMG from which it springs—except for the interior, which is almost stock. The Black Series sheds 210 pounds of curb weight, much of which comes from ditching the power folding hardtop for a fixed roof made of carbon fiber. The rest of the weight savings, and most of the price increase, comes from using carbon-fiber-reinforced plastic on every body panel save the doors and rear fenders.

Mercedes is taking orders for the Grand Edition of its CLS four-door coupe. The one, that started it all.

Filmed in 2 states, with at least a dozen soapy girls washing, driving and wrecking cars, you’ll see Corvettes, a Saleen S7, the wreckage of a Porsche GT3 and finally girl on girl drag race between the Mercedes Benz AMG C63 and the BMW E63 M6.

You've already seen it from a number of nearly undisguised angles, and today, here's yet another look at the forthcoming Mercedes E-Class Coupe – this time, from the air. As you can clearly see, available as an option on the model will be a panoramic glass roof, a welcome feature for anyone not in the market for a cabriolet who still craves the feeling of partially open air driving.

GM plans to officially submit its new 2010 Cadillac SRX crossover SUV to public scrutiny during the upcoming international motor show in Detroit.

Capping off a horrendous past several months, Mercedes-Benz USA continued their year-end downward spiral in December, with sales at MBUSA totaling 18,507 new units – a decrease of 32.1 percent when compared to December of 2007. As a result, Mercedes-Benz USA's 2008 sales amounted to a grand total of 225,128 new units – a decrease of 11.2 percent when compared to the prior year.

Now that the official photos of the 2010 Mercedes-Benz E-Class have been leaked, it's only fitting that photos showcasing the new E-Class Coupe nearly undisguised have began appearing as well. As you'll see (and as we all expected), the similarities between the E-Class Coupe and sedan are abundant, with a notable difference up front being the sportier grille with corresponding Mercedes star.

As you may remember, last month Mercedes announced that Julia Stegner would take on the role as brand ambassador for Mercedes-Benz Fashion Week Berlin 2009. As part of her duties, Julia posed for a photo shoot alongside a Mercedes CLS 350 CGI Grand Edition, but at the time, little details regarding the four door coupe were revealed. Today, that all changes, as Mercedes has unveiled the full details of what to expect from the special edition model.

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.

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.
