Are you the facelifted 2012 Mercedes Benz C63 AMG

Now that we’ve seen the facelifted 2012 Mercedes-Benz C-Class in its bread-and-butter C250, C300 and C350 forms, it’s time to start thinking about the holier-than-thou, unabashedly hardcore C63 AMG. The folks at Germany’s EvoCars have stumbled upon what appear to be production-spec images of the AMG-laden 2012 C-Class, and while the brash bulginess of the current car has been toned down somewhat, there’s certainly nothing sedate about this new menacing Merc.

The biggest question about the next-generation C63 is whether or not Mercedes-Benz will ditch the current car’s glorious naturally aspirated 6.2-liter V8 in favor of the new twin-turbocharged 5.5-liter mill that will be used in the CL63, S63 and CLS63. EvoCars states that only the new C63 AMG Coupe will receive the 5.5-liter heart, and that power of the 6.2 will be bumped up for use in the sedan. Still, with either engine, we’re sure the C63 will be as lively as ever out on the road.

2014 Mercedes Benz SLC AMG SpyShot

Mercedes-Benz SLC AMG: First spy shots of the coupe. Immediately after the official confirmation about making Mercedes Mercedes-Benz model SLC AMG, we get the first spy photos of prototype rolling road test in their routine testing Germanic. The aesthetic similarity between the SLC and SLS is tricky. This is because the test robot body panels used some of his older brother on camouflage to mislead journalists and others understood the world of motoring. Entering the market is scheduled for mid 2014. Much time. Alone we can tell you that you have patience, because what good is worth waiting ...

As recently as two months, from Mercedes-Benz finally ratified officially, it was just a rumor: The Making of medium-scale sports, based on the SL platform. Well, it seems more than just a rumor. With the SLC name and with the intention of proposing as the younger brother sales of sporting flagship of the entire history of the German mark, the SLS AMG alias Gullwing.

Does that model looks?
After this confirmation, spy photographers have captured some snapshots of the prototype tests. At first glance, the model sports the same design as the SLS AMG, we saw a few days here, but of a size that seems much smaller.

This does not translate in the future coupe will be released with the same lines as its upscale sibling, but its aesthetic similarity may be because the prototype has used some body panels of the SLS in its testing period, to confuse the staff. The new model will have its own design; you all know the conclusion of the last tests of the prototype.

For now, know the technical details of the SLC AMG most relevant, since by far not been made public, but surely that will compete with other sports with similar characteristics as the Porsche 911, Bentley Continental GT or the Aston Martin V8 Vantage, presented at the Geneva Motor Show 2012.

Some more details ...
To achieve optimum weight reduction, aluminum panels used Mercedes and, perhaps, carbon fiber, reducing significantly the weight of the model.

As for its engine, rumored to carry a 5.5-liter V8 engine specially prepared by the sports division of Mercedes house. The power could range between 350 and 420 hp, enough to meet even the legendary 911 Carrera.

Although there may also be a more frugal V6, economic and notorious. We do not know is that as you look at the SLS AMG, but were pretty sure Mercedes SLC will leave the door without Gull Wing to maintain the quality of SLS AMG and its doors as most features.

In the coming weeks, well know more of the model. Insurance with the emergence of new images soon new Mercedes coupe, and at least something more than its price. The wait for another two years we will do forever. But, we will inform you in detail...

2012 Mercedes Benz SLK 350 Reviews

2012 Mercedes-Benz SLK 350

2012 Mercedes-Benz SLK350, all about appearances. Now, its not to say that the SLK 350 has nothing to offer behind the wheel or in a tent, but it is most definitely a car design that was originally captured your attention and have over it. The 2012 Mercedes-Benz SLK350 comes up with an aggressive display on the front and the exhaust note which sends a small forest animals running for the hills.

Mercedes-Benz SLK350  has a very futuristic look and from behind, with absolutely no cohesive style with the front end. From the rear, this car looks like a space pod, which will be floating around the International Space Station within 10 years or more. Control panel is dominated by the aircraft-style chrome air vents, giving the feel of an open cabin with the roof up or down. Boot space is 335 liters with the roof up or 225 when it goes down, enough for the couple suitcases are packed on their sides.

As a retractable hard top, the roof Mercedes-Benz SLK350 is a fun little technology. Like modern-moving peak of this type, it is the power-run, do a little origami to her by pushing a button. This pile-on luggage or the show itself, protect the cabin against wind and rain. Sunroofs in the conversion makes sense because many solar panels in the basement but the SLK350 has two versions, regular and panoramic model of control Sky Magic version. Miracle system by using a crystal attached to the sunroof that reacts with an electric current to change the amount of light entering the cabin.

A new direct-injection V-6 on the 2012 Mercedes-Benz SLK350 provides plenty of power and good fuel economy. Retractable hard top in 20 seconds. Stereo interface that displays album art and Harman Kardon audio system produces a detailed sound.

What I found most surprising about the SLK 350 is a comfortable and handling driving ability. I expect the SLK is quite rough. Low-to-the-ground seating position and sporty attitude, I really hope to compress the bone Im so every bump. But I do not, even in mode S. However, when I bring twisters of speed (which I tend to do), the Mercedes-Benz SLK350 and the back end is not rolled out only when provoked (just the way I like it).

SLK350 did not have the serenity to adjust the speed, but is not designed for. If you need a place like Michael Schumacher, buy C63. If you want to look good, can see and enjoy a cruise without setting a record pace, sitting on top, Mercedes-Benz SLK Suite 2012 SLK350 cabin that will bring a very good technology and provide an aggressive performance, but they are looking for cruise ships may find Mercedes-Benz SLK350 so many animals.

Buying guide E55 AMG by Mercedes Benz

The E55 AMG of Mercedes-Benz is a game changer. Under £20k, a used E55 AMG is of great value. With this post we list down tips on what to look for when buying one.

Brakes

The pads and discs are reasonably priced at around £450 per set. Fitting the brakes will add a bit to the tag especially when the brake fluid will be changed. This generation of Benz requires you to plug it to a computer when you change the fluid.

Cabin

When you get an E55 with high specs you can expect that the cabin will have a ton of gadgets. You have to take note that these systems will be expensive to fix.

Chassis

The brand speaks for itself through the years and it has been known to produce tough chassis with no weak joints or bushes.

Engine

The powerplant of the E55 is hand-built and you will be able to see the names of the persons who assembled it.

Bodystyle

You only have an option between a saloon or an estate. The wagon is easier to put again onto the market later, and still you can give it a good price.

Wheels and tires

Every corner will cost you about £200. We advise that you avoid the aftermarket rims since an original wheel set on the car that is chip-free will give a hint of a careful owner who is careful with parking or spent some sum to take care of the car.

Are you the 2012 Mercedes Benz C Class Coupe

We’ve been told to expect to get our first glimpse of the next-generation Mercedes-Benz C-Class Coupe at the 2011 Geneva Motor Show in March, but a few photos of the German two-door may have leaked out ahead of time. The images you see above were sourced up by the team at GMotors. From what we can tell, the vehicle in the stylized photos lines up pretty well with the spy photos we’ve seen of the 2012 C-Class Coupe so far, which leads us to believe that this may actually be the real deal. If so, the new coupe will wear the new beak of its updated four-door compatriots.

That includes the new slightly restyled front fascia. Interestingly enough, this particular set of photos ditches the quad fog lights we saw in the spy photos in favor of LED units. we’d say that seems like a fairly reasonable change given the popularity of the diodes in automotive design at the moment. Word is that this particular machine will get the same rash of engines as the sedan, meaning that buyers can expect to get their hands on either a 3.0-liter V6 with 228 horsepower or a 3.5-liter six-pot with 268 ponies. The question is, will we get an entry-level four-cylinder model like the 2012 C-Class sedan? Something tells us we’ll know a little more as we get closer to Geneva.
