X-tomi Design & Photo Studio, best known for its cool and extreme auto renderings, just released its take on the Mercedes-Benz SLC Shooting Brake.

What the studio did was it took the design of the AMG version of the new SLC and mated it with a revised rear of the CLS Shooting Brake. Some traces of the BMW Z3 M Coupe and the GLA 45 AMG could also be found on the SLC Shooting Brake rendering.

The end product was an all-new concept car that almost looked too real and not just an obvious product of a simple Photoshop work.

One of the changes in the concept car is its roof too. Instead of the signature retractable roof of the SLC, X-tomi seemed to have fixed it in place and positioned a B-pillar to hold it permanently.
