Mercedes-Benz revealed the 2012 SLS AMG soft-top Roadster a few days ago, and this 563-hp sportscar demands a high price. Available later this year, the $183,000 Merc may be missing the signature gullwing doors, but it certainly does retain the coupe’s power and sex appeal. The SLS AMG will be powered by a 6.2-liter V8...

Debuting today at the Essen Motor Show in Germany, famed Mercedes tuner Brabus took the wraps off the modified SLS we’ve been waiting for. We’ve seen several modified SLS models already, but they’ve either been minor tweaks or massively overdone monstrosities. Brabus, however, has managed to go all-out while still remaining true to the SLS....

Now this is how you build a luxury sports coupe. You take what Mercedes-Benz has already done oh-so-well with their AMG Black Series vehicles – this one being a CLK63 – play on the black theme some more by making the entire car matte black, outfit it with a perfectly measured set of ADV1 wheels...

When Mercedes-Benz first released its SLS AMG flgaship sports car, we found it hard to believe that an aftermarket tuner would have the audacity to alter its fine lines in a negative way. Instead of keeping it subtle and clean, FAB Design outfitted this SLS AMG with an all new front bumper that sports additional...

Even though Anderson Germany is labeling its Mercedes-Benz CL65 AMG project the “Black Edition,” it’s not exactly what we were hoping for. Given how nice the SL65 AMG Black Series is, we were expecting perhaps a nice and aggressive widebody setup on the CL65. But alas, it’s just a clever marketing scheme as the Black...

Not to be outdone by Hamann and their SLS AMG tuning kit, famed Mercedes-Benz tuner Brabus has unleashed their rendition and we’re picking our favorite: Brabus.

Last month we drooled over the matte blue Porsche Panamera that Platinum Motorsports had built, but this matte-purple Mercedes-Benz SLS AMG just isn’t doing it for us. That’s not to say we hate it. We definitely give it points for being original – especially on such a unique car. The video appears to have been...

We could hardly believe our eyes when we saw Helvetic Motor Company’s (HMC) Hidalgo. What started with a Mercedes-Benz SLK55 AMG has been converted to what you’re seeing now. An interesting blend of old school styling with new school technology. We’re not huge fans of the odd paint scheme, but the overall aesthetics of the...

Now that Mercedes-Benz has released full details on the 2011 CL63 and CL65 AMG, we aren’t surprised that companies are quick to announce products for the pre-facelifted version. Expression Motorsport has conjured up a very clean widebody kit for the CL65 AMG, one that surprisingly flows with the stock body without being too gaudy. One...

Instead of adorning Mercedes-Benz‘s lovely SLS AMG with a traditional body kit full of lip spoilers, Hamann decided not to mess with the SLS AMG’s natural good looks, but rather bolt-on some larger components to make it stand out.
