nicu — Sun, 06 May 2012 17:38:13 +0000

I found the perfect doctor for all those who believe that after enrichment, there are indeed only SUV classes. The Mercedes-Benz E 250 CDI 4MATIC has created a recipe that seems ideal.
There is already a very big and important core that consists of people with real financial power. Obviously, most of us believe that an SUV is a perfect solution as a Status Indicator or any travel through the country with four seasons and portions of the road with real problems that you will meet while you go on a trip. Automaticity or already formed, the expensive SUV’s are expensive premium that will always be sold well because the financial core of possibilities will never disappear. But even if so, these people, are very potent and security and will try more and more to maintain their wealth and will not spend as much as they did before. This is already happening for more than three years and the automakers have come somehow with further support those who want to show-off, with ultimate luxury again and again, but want cars that will no longer consume ferocious resources. Therefore, Porsche Cayenne Diesel is sold excellent despite its exorbitant price. Therefore, the X5 and X6 M 50D will break the selling barrier and therefore the premium SUV with four-cylinder engine, the ML 250 Blue EFFICIENCY will write history. But coming with less than the premium SUV classic pattern, there are many solutions for the luxury cars that meet all modern requirements of a man’s money without making him to buy an SUV.

nicu — Sun, 06 May 2012 17:30:04 +0000

The Mercedes-benz CL63 AMG received a facelift and a new V8 turbo engine from AMG. The stylistic changes are small but noticeable and the engine is brilliant. CL 63 AMG is incredibly close to perfection.

The largest Mercedes-Benz coupe product has a modern history. It is a first class coupe based on a long story and was only launched in 1998 under the already famous names CL, which means, Comfort Leicht. Comfort easy? Yes, I know, this sounds very strange. I believe the term Leicht is used more metaphorically than its true meaning, as the current generation CL is even more difficult than the S Class, because of the reinforcements that had to compensate for the lack of the central pillar. True is that, the first generation of CL was built onto the S platform which is lighter, with shorter wheelbases but with the idea of super-luxury that has changed until today. And so, now, Comfort Leicht think it relates more to the ease with which this car can provide the greatest comfort in the world. CL’s crown jewels are the AMG versions. Very expensive, very fast, exclusive equipped, these beautiful creations of Mercedes sports division has evolved enormously over the years. From 55 version drawn from 2001, the AMG had 360 hp and 530 Nm, reached in 2003 to the same 55 version now turbocharged and supercharged with 500 hp and 700 Nm. It was meant to be launched the pre-crisis version 65 and then the 63 biturbo V12 and the aspirated V8 with the 6.2 liter engine. . If the first version which has survived because it had a price level where the crisis does not really matter, the 63 version was amended this year in new economic spirit adopted by AMG.

For those from BRABUS, this means that they are promoting a lately start with “The most powerful” or ”The fastest”. This time both of the statements are valid in the case of Brabus 800 Coupe which is a different version of Mercedes-Benz CL 600.

The new model which is presented by the German tuner at the Dubai International Motor Show is based on the version of the Brabus Mercedes-Benz CL 600. The CL 600 V12 comes with a modification: the previous 5.5 liter engine is now 6.3 liter. The twin-turbo series was replaced with a charge made by Brabus. It was redesigned and has two escape routes, where they integrate the turbines and the 4 intercoolers, thus Brabus V12 Biturbo 800 Coupe delivers 800 hp at 5,500 rpm and a torque of 1420 Nm at 2,100 rpm. Obviously, it will only provide around 1,100 Nm, so that the value will limitated. Impresionant for this engine is that it complies with Euro 5 emission standards. The power is sent to the rear axle via a 5 speed automatic gearbox. Obviously is that there is a rear axle, which has a limited slip differential. Those from Brabus have thought that there is no point stressing for the client, because Brabus 800 Coupe is decoupling algorithms from the electronic systems.

For this is sufficient a touch of a button. This model is, as the Brabus, the fastest and most powerful luxury coupe on the market. It goes from 0 to 100 km / h in 3.9 seconds and from 0 to 200 km / h in 10.3 seconds, so it has a top speed electronically limited to 350 km / h.
