[Video] Car and Driver: Tested Stages Mercedes-Benz AMG Black Series Duel

[Video] Car and Driver: Tested Stages Mercedes-Benz AMG Black Series Duel  阅读原文»

Superior performance coupled with elegant style―that's the mantra of the Mercedes-Benz AMG Black Series line of cars. These are road-legal vehicles that push the envelope in terms of performance, and that is shown in this featured video from the show Car and Driver: Tested, which pits the Mercedes-Benz CLK63 AMG Black Series from 2007 against its more contemporary successor, the 2012 C63 AMG Black Series Coupe.

What difference does being 5 years apart make? That's exactly what the reviewer discusses in the video, taking both models for a spin on the track and pushing to see how both perform. Watch the video to see the full show for yourself.

While it might be unlikely for normal people like ourselves to also have the chance to drive both vehicles, it still warrants this question: which one would you rather have? Which one do you think is better? Feel free to discuss in the comments!

A Stretch G-Class? Only In Monaco  阅读原文»

Captured recently on tape is this extended Mercedes-Benz G55. Enhanced by Brabus, it features revised headlights, bumpers and chrome trim. Done in black with black tint, it looks like a limousine that has the guts to go anywhere. And even though it's powered by a 6.3-liter V8 in this case, one cannot expect any G-Class, with its barn-like aerodynamics, to get up and go. But that large engine will be put to good use in this particular vehicle, as you'd have to be cross-eyed not to notice the extra sheetmetal (and weight) that was added after the rear doors.

As you'll notice, the rear wheel arches don't cut into the doors anymore, but the beautiful side exhausts still manifest themselves just in front of the rear wheels. Being a Brabus product, it's safe to assume that the interior has added luxury appointments that we don't get to see.

There have been DIY stretch jobs of the rugged G-Class before, but Brabus has taken this job to another level, looking very much like a factory effort. Which is what we have come to expect from this premier Mercedes-Benz tuner.
