Mercedes-Benz's flagship SLS AMG has been rather hesitant to enter motor sport events until the recently ended 24 hours of Dubai. This is mostly because the paint on the Mercedes-Benz SLS AMG GT3 racer has barely had time to dry. At this point you may be wondering how it stacked up against the opposition at the aforementioned endurance massacre and...
It's not like BMW has all the fans with design capabilities good enough to make a Z5. The Bavarian's rivals are sitting on quite the fan base. Perhaps the most notable one of them all will be Mercedes. Mercedes has quite the reputation for luxury cruising and sometimes for important image statements. The design study we have at our disposal...

Usually a model is introduced few months after its official debut at an auto show.

It's only been a couple of days since we last heard about how the Germans are thinking about killing off the Mercedes-Benz ML63 AMG. Alongside the AMG performance tuned SUV, Mercedes was said to drop the biggest diesel engine available on it, the 450 CDI. It was all somewhat sad, but it wasn't impossible to understand. After all, you don't...

We received the first serious signals from the new German supercar back in October, last year, when Mercedes was testing the new model in Death Valley.

We've heard about Vilner before. They're a Bulgarian tuning company with a bit of a sense of humor. Vilner can turn cars from fun vehicles into darn right jokes. Weirdly, this time they didn't come up with a W24 engine shoved into a Ford Ka that has orange seats. They went all serious. Vilner's latest work showcases a new interior...
Of all the places the world has seen affected by the economic crisis, Germany's luxury car market is one of the leading downers. Happily, their luxury car production hasn't experienced the same fate.

Firstly, a head exam and secondly, some help from a German tuner called Piecha Design. This is because Piecha Design have come up with what they call a complete...
I for one always reckoned that Mercedes' Maybach brand is the most straight forward and no nonsense one out there. For some reason or other, most of the journalistic media would prefer to mock it and favoring creations by Bentley and Rolls Royce to it. I understand the appeal of those cars but I don't understand why Maybach is failing....
Ok, it's just me who considers this sort of car as ready for a pension plan but it did get a 2012 face along some other things. Among the "other things" you'll find a new engine, one of the small 4 cylinder sort. Since the styling changes are on the minor side, let's focus on what else the three pointed...
