Vath Tunes Mercedes-Benz CL65 AMG to 745HP
Vath is upping the performance aspect on the Mercedes-Benz CL65 AMG once again with the release of a new package that increases power and gives the luxury coupe a more aggressive look. The German tuner didn’t think the Benz’s 612-horsepower twin-turbo V12 wasn’t enough, so they added an engine kit that lifts output to 745HP and a spectacular 848 lb.-ft. of peak torque.
The tuner claims that with this package, the CL65 AMG can go from zero to 62mph in just 4.0 seconds and reach speeds of up to 211 mph. Even more impressive is the price of the kit that will cost you as much as a new C-Class at a $53,100, including installation.

Mercedes Benz - SLR McLaren Stirling Moss
A greatest of working relationship between Mercedes Benz and McLaren will come to an end after about 5 years. These two companies combined its expertise to produce the SLR (Sport/Light/Racing) models totaling in two coupes, two roadsters and the last of the release Stirling Moss version. Out of the 2000 SLRs produced, only 75 will be titled Stirling Moss making the already hard to obtain model more exclusive.
The Stirling Moss edition puts out 478kw (650hp) and speeds up from zero to one hundred in 3.5 seconds reaching up to a top speed of 350km/h. Even though this will be the last time SLR will be manufactured it is sure that fans of SLR will gather as SLR Club where members get together for regular meets to enjoy their vehicles how it should be.

Limited Edition Mercedez-Benz Carbon Fiber Bicycle
While a little outdated, still worthy of writing about on here. Back in 2006 Mercedes-Benz had a bike collection, in which their flagship model was a $3,670 ultra-lightweight carbon fiber frame.
The bike frame weighs just 18 pounds, and is targeted at both amateurs and professional cyclists. As with a Mercedes vehicle, you can expect high-end components to be used. The bike utilizes a Shimano (Dura-Ace) drive system, gears, brakes, and wheels.
Only 199 units were made, so consider yourself lucky if you’re able to find one.

Mercedes shows off Splitview display, other dashboard perks in the 2010 S-Class
One word......DOPE!
Sure, the cold metal exterior looks like a regular old car, but the 2010 S-Class from Mercedes-Benz has a fuzzy technological heart, including an abundance of readout displays and a Splitview screen. Quite like it sounds, the Splitview display offers up one view to the driver (like a map), while the passenger sees a completely different image (like a movie, or a picture of somebody looking at a map), and after hearing all about it for the past while, Mercedes is actually giving us a glimpse of it in an overly-dramatic promo video for the latest S-Class to clutter up the roads. Check it out after the break.
