Awesome Mercedes Benz

Mercedes’ iconic three-pointed star is now available as an LED-illuminated option on the 2014 E, 2013+ GL, 2012+ M and 2006+ CLS-Class. While aftermarket options might look tacky, Mercedes makes it classy and high-tech.

The new S-Class will be launched this fall with a twin-turbo 4.7L V-8 with 455 hp and 516 lb/ft of torque. The deluxe interior includes massaging seats, fragrance system, heated steering wheel, a pair of 12.3″ screens, and LED lighting.

What happens when you let AMG have their way with a Mercedes-Benz G63 4×4? This. An 8300lb., 6-wheeled beast, with 37-inch wheels, and a 5.5L twin-turbo V8 with 536hp and 560 lb-ft of torque.

The 2014 Mercedes-Benz SLS AMG Black series has a 6.3L V8 that pumps out 631hp. It weighs only 3,417lbs, thanks the use of carbon fiber parts and a Li-ion battery in place of the standard battery.

A greener alternative to the V8 model, the all-electric SLS AMG Coupe is driven by four powerful motors, cranking out 740hp and 737 pound-feet of torque. Too bad it’s $300k more than the gas one.

If you think it looks like a coupe combined with a station wagon, that’s exactly what Mercedes-Benz was going for. The five-door sedan will be available in four cylinder, V6 and V8 variants.

Brabus’ brutish mod of the C63 AMG Coupe has the guts to match its menacing matte black finish. It has a 12-cylinder 800hp 6.3L engine, goes from 0 to 60 in just 3.7s and tops out at 230mph.

The new AMG drops almost 300 pounds, driven by a 5.5L twin-turbo V8 with 530hp and 590 lb-ft of torque. Add the performance package for 557hp and 664 lb-ft of torque and a top speed of 186mph.

MB celebrates its 125th year with the F125. Its emission-free hydrogen-powered electric motor gets up to 650mi in one charge. Good thing there’s still time to rethink the somewhat sterile look.
