Mercedes News

Mercedes-Benz has a rich history of building powerful but smooth powertrains.  The German company’s in-house tuning outfit, AMG, has a rich history of building insane powertrains:  monstrous engines that produce both numbers and noises that rival 1960′s Detroit iron. In the 40 some years that the gearhead engineers have been working, muscle car Mercs have come and gone but today, the AMG philosophy remains the same.  Each model is truly unique and in order to fully experience what these vehicles can do, Mercedes-Benz has opened another round of their AMG Driving Academy.
The event got its original start in 2007 and has taken place each year since.  Traveling from race track to race track, the 2012 edition will take place at five facilities around the United States.  Starting on Apirl 12 at the Palm Beach International Raceway in Jupiter, Florida, the first five-day event will ensure that each AMG model on hand gets a proper testing.  Both owners and fans are invited to attend the instructional event and will be offered the opportunity to drive some truly amazing cars.  Professional drivers will guide attendees behind the wheel of such AMGs like the C63 Coupe, E63 Sedan, SL63, SLK55 and even the SLS.  Three levels of training will be available – Basic, Advanced and Pro – with the top tier costing $3,695.  But with that, drivers are given three days worth of intense training and the ability to experience fully what a 600 plus horsepower, naturally aspirated V8 can do the Mercedes rear wheels.
Luxurious, stylish, shiny, custom wheels are not simple accessories. As alchemists could transform one form of matter into another, so the proper rims can modify the vehicle's look. They are powerful enough to turn a daily driver into an opulent car, and to underline the inherent elegance of any luxury vehicle. We store the whole selection of custom wheels, delivered by the most prominent brands in the industry. Whether you want to boost the style of your vehicle or need a reliable setup for a harsh off-roading, we have the right wheels for you.
