Giancarlo Perlas November 17, 2016

New spy shots reveal that Mercedes-Benz is working on the next generation of the CLS. The images of the car were snapped while it was undergoing testing. Here are the things we learned about the next Mercedes-Benz CLS based from reports, insider info, and predictions: 1. CLS or CLE While there are speculations that the car sitting between the E-Class and the S-Class will be reintroduced as the CLE, we strongly believe that Mercedes will stick in its latest nomenclature system keeping the CLS name. 2.

Mercedes-Benz CLS Gets a Stealth Wrap

Giancarlo Perlas July 5, 2016

M&D Exclusive Car Design recently pimped up a 2016 Mercedes-Benz CLS 500. The firm gave the car what it called the “Stealth” wrap and rechristened it as the CLS 500 PD550 Black Edition Stealth. The wrap was probably intended to let the CLS blend in the concrete jungle as M&D wrapped it in a combination of Matte charcoal or Matte black over Matte white complete with orange accents. However, one might argue that the wrap does not make the car stealthy at all. Well, we might have to agree with that as the CLS already commands a lot of attention because it belongs in the top hierarchy of Mercedes. Then the wrap in… Continue Reading »

Giancarlo Perlas May 17, 2016

One Mercedes CLS 63 AMG was spotted driving along Monaco last month. But what made the car special is its set up. Outside, the CLS was given an desert camouflage wrap.

Mercedes-Benz CLS Tweaked By MEC Design

Peter Parcon April 25, 2016

While many of the things made these days are considered better compared to those made in the past, there are a few exceptions to this rule. These exceptions include music as well as vehicle design.
