Carlsson the great Mercedes-Benz tuner, announced today the debut of the Aigner CK65 RS “Eau Rouge“ Dark Edition at the Zurich Auto Show. The new vehicle based on the Mercedes-Benz CL65 AMG will be produced in small series, and will be available in tow levels of performance, developing 705 hp and 756 hp (and 1,150 Nm).

The sport exhaust system by Carlsson generates more output and a truly powerful roar. Dominating the rear of the Carlsson Aigner CK65 are four Carlsson designed end pipes which electrify through their raw sound. Compared to the serial exhaust system, the exhaust back pressure and pipe guide are maximized for efficiency. With that, Carlsson attains a high improvement in torque and performance. The latest Carlsson aerodynamic accessories and components emphasize the stylish profile of the model. However, the Carlsson Aigner CK65 “Eau Rouge” Dark Edition has its own distinctiveness and profile in both the inside and outside. More details and photo gallery after the jump!

After we saw the Kicherer CL60 we were impressed and thought that that was the best tuning kit for the Mercedes CL-Class…until today, when we saw the VITT W216 Super Wide Edition.

The new customization programme from the Japanese tuning house, includes a re-designed front bumper with integrated fog lights and new air inlets, an aggressive bonnet with new air inlets, widened front and rear fenders, new side sills, a re-designed rear bumper and a new rear trunk spoiler. The kit is completed by the big 5-spoke alloy wheels which not only improve the looks but also the handling of the vehicle. Price of the kit: $19,520 or €15,000. The only bad news is that the kit is available for the moment only in Japan… More photos after the jump!

Mercedes-Benz has made an extraordinary statement in the medium class series with the release of its C-Class top-of-the-line model C63 AMG.

The relatively small C63 AMG houses an engine bigger than the 6-liter V8. However, since the power yield is comparably low, Carlsson set in motion its hidden potential. With a power ceiling of 565hp, the CK63 speeds far ahead of its competitors leaving them all behind its stainless steel exhaust end pipes. Equipped with new wheels and more athletic aerodynamics, the C-Class series clearly demonstrates some top features.
