Feast Your Eyes on the Mercedes-Benz E-Class Coupe

mercedes-benz-e-class-coupeAs many of you are probably aware, a while ago Mercedes-Benz decided to replace the aging but iconic CLK coupe. They did so at last year’s motor show in Geneva. The replacement car? The stunning Mercedes-Benz E-Class Coupe. It is a two door car with a very distinct and sporty design aesthetic — much more so than both the CLK it is replacing and the sedan on which it is based.

The front face of the car, however, is pretty much identical to that sedan. However, the headlamps, shaped like a rhombus, are more incisive, especially where the contours are concerned.

The car’s silhouette is wonderfully rakish and the inside is no less luxurious. The seats are trimmed in leather, the back rests are high, and the car has an “easy entry” type of function, making it much easier to get in and out.

$400,000 Brabus G V12 S Biturbo

Looking for the kind of SUV that will really set you apart from the rest of the pack? Not too worried about aerodynamics? Have about half a million dollars to spend? Consider this absolutely majestic Brabus G V12 S Biturbo! Found it at Luxury Cars.biz, and got slightly aroused.

“The upgraded and powerful engine, added to a five-speed automatic transmission, has an impressive 690 horsepower and 973 lb-ft of torque. The Brabus G V12 S Biturbo accelerates at 62 mph in only 4.3 seconds.”

That’s 700 horses pulling you to 100km/h in close to 4 seconds. That’s Porsche Turbo-territory, for a box-shaped SUV. I’m freaking impressed!
