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.
Bespoke Range Rover tuner Overfinch has revealed their newest performance upgrade, this time for Land Rovers new Turbo-Diesel V8 Range Rover. The new Overfinch Range Rover Vogue TDV8 GT features their very stylish performance 5-piece Aero Body Styling Pack, 22″ wheels and loads of bespoke upgrades, but what blows our mind is the phenomenal power and torque increase from the already potent TDV8. Horsepower has increased to 321 and torque is now a thundering 582 lbft.....
Posted by www.eMercedesBenz.com\r\nWe've brought you the rumors on several occasions, but today, Mercedes has confirmed they will be producing a a special edition of the SLK 55 AMG. Based on the SLK Ultimate Experience Asia, the special edition SLK 55 AMG is an automotive purists dream.
It's no secret we hear at eMercedesBenz are fans of the new Mercedes S550's spectacular design, but is it possible to improve on what has become the world's preeminently-styled luxury sedan?
German tuner G-Power has announced a 620 horsepower version of the BMW M6, called the G-Power G6. To match the added power, the car has upgraded brakes with 15.7″ rotors and 11-inch-wide Michelin tires to safely carry the car to its top speed of 208 mph. 0-62 mph is accomplished in under 4.5 seconds.

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.
During recent high speed testing, the Brabus Rocket, whose superbly-tuned V12 produces a maximum power output of 730 hp / 537 kW and an electronically limited peak torque of 1,100 Nm at 2,100 RPM, registered a maximum velocity of... are you ready for this... 225.19 miles per hour.
Although the new CL-Class hasn't hit dealerships yet, Wald International has already released the first glimpse into what their Executive tuning package for the W216 Mercedes CL will look like.
Posted by www.eMercedesbenz.com\r\n\r\nIt's been only two months since Mercedes announced the second coming of the E-Class, an updated version of the widely popular sedan that features a number of new revisions. More power, slightly enhanced styling, and a wealth of new electrical components are just a few of the changes the 2007 E can boast of.
The Audi R8 hasn’t even hit the shelves yet and German’s tuning haus Abt Sportsline has already hit the drawing board and released some images of what their tuned Audi R8 might look like.....more....
Lou Gigliotti of LG Motorsports loves to get his hands on the new stuff and there's nothing newer than the 6.2 liter LS3 V8 engine in the 2008 Corvette.

HOT OFF THE PRESS FINALLY!!! Honda has apparently started testing pre-production prototypes of its highly anticipated 2010 Acura NSX, as speculated by these recent spy photos taken in Germany.
I ran across this story yesterday but unfortunately due to limited time constraints I wasn't able to publish it. As you may remember, back in June Brabus and their 730 horsepower V12-powered Mercedes CLS Rocket set out on a mission: to become the world's fastest street-legal sedan. The result was a top speed test run that boasted an incredible maximum velocity of 225.19 mph, fast enough to make the CLS Rocket the new king among luxury supercars.
Hot Import Nights (HIN) is scheduled to officially launch in Los Angeles to kick off their 10th year! I will be in attendance (flying out to LA right after this post) and covering the event completely: from cars to babes so check back here regularly next week as I will be posting photo after photo of hot cars and North America's sexiest models!
Based on the Mercedes R-Class, the RLS is undoubtedly the most noteworthy rendition of the four wheel drive minivan to date. Highlights include 30" rear wheels (26" wheels up front), swing pivot doors with seating attached, custom leather interior and a rear Mercedes emblem that grows erect with a gentle, loving touch.
A cast member from the upcoming The Fast and The Furious 4 took part in filming over the weekend and, at great personal risk, snapped these awesome stealth pics below. They seem to be filming a nightclub scene, and these were some of the rides lined up in the parking lot. Below are also some shitty grainy cell phone videos showing some serious donut-spinning, but we totally appreciate the videos no matter how shitty they are because SPY PHOTOS and SPY VIDEOS are always AWESOME!!
Every once in a while, a tuner comes along that completely changes the perception of the vehicle they're tuning. ASMA Design is one of those tuners. First there was the ASMA CLS Shark II. Then came the ASMA ML Gladiator II. Now, to further add to their distinctive lineup of tuning products, ASMA has introduced a new tuning package for the 2007 Mercedes S-Class, aptly titled the Eagle I.
Posted by www.eMercedesBenz.com\r\nThis week, we decided to feature a vehicle that, for all intensive purposes, defines everything a finely tuned Mercedes should be - incredibly fast; incredibly sexy; and of course, incredibly drivable. That vehicle, as our title has already stated, is the Kleemann SLK 55K S8, an exquisitely-upgraded version of the already-covetable Mercedes SLK55 AMG.
There are those who can never be satisfied with near perfection. Kicherer just couldn't leave well enough alone, and just had to go and improve Audi's new supercar, the R8.

Prospective owners of the 2007 CL-Class worried that the luxury coupe may not be able to be able to match the performance of their next-door neighbor's Porsche will be pleased to hear that German super-tuner Brabus has, in their typical fare, transformed the new model into what may be the most blisteringly-fast, superbly-appointed Mercedes currently available.
I thought it best to start the day off with a little tuning action from the fine gentlemen of Wald. Titled the Wald Black Bison Sports Line, the newest offering the Japanese tuning firm was developed specifically for the W221 Mercedes S-Class, and aims to give an "aggressive atmosphere" to the car.
The third installment our Essen Motor Show coverage, again brought to you Auto-Tuning-News.com, stops by the booth of Lorinser, a company that has just introduced one of the finest Mercedes tuning packages available. And while at first glance you may think the tuning package I'm referring to is the CL kit pictured above, the real highlight of Lorinser - the tuning package that truly sets the company apart - is the one they've introduced for the GL.
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...
