Mercedes S63 and S65

Tuesday, April 14th, 2009

Mercedes have sure got us going with the first leaked shots of the 2010 S63 and S65 set to be shown off later this moth at the Shanghai Motor Show. Under the hood of the S63 will be a 6.2-liter V8 giving 518 horsepower and 465 pound-feet of torque and if that does not fill your appetite for power then the S65 gets the twin-turbo 6.0-liter V12 engine good for 604 hp and a stunning738 pound-feet of torque, probably a lot more than you wished for!
But the real highlights come in the form of distinct LED light strips, a more aggressive front fascia with an enlarged air gulper and bespoke grilles which vary for both cars. While we do not yet know what kind of a whole they would burn through our pockets, expect the prices to be similar close to $131,350 and respectively $198,950.

Mercedes-Benz CLS-Class

MEC Design has brought out its latest aero kit for the Mercedes Benz CLS Class. The entire gear comes with an extended front skirt, a chin spoiler with a choice of fog lights or mesh inserts, flared fenders, special MEC designed wheels and a choice between a sports diffuser or a rear bumper at the back. For most parts, the new aerodynamic additions add very little other than extra bulk on the CLR and with beyond a 40-70mm lowered suspension and a few tweaks to the exhaust; this is unlikely to set the pulse racing for the Mercedes fans. Is it just another muscle-up job for an amazing coupe sedan?
