It’s fitting that the man in the clip below is called Shmee. That’s probably the sound he made when he first put the hammer down in the Gemballa-modified Mercedes-Benz SLR McLaren. The legendary tuner of Porsches tweaked the hypercar’s ECU, bumping the 5.4-liter supercharged V8’s output up to 666 horsepower. Of course, it also customized […] More »
There are certain aftermarket companies that are known for their lack of restraint. After all, if you’re going to completely tear down a vehicle to customize it, why be subtle? Go big or go home. ICON, a Los-Angeles-based builder, did neither when it got its hands on a new Mercedes-Benz G55 AMG. It went to its fabrication shop, and then it tastefully dressed up the right-angled rig.

Farah, Rob Ferretti and some other gun-toting fellows absolutely UNLOAD on the big-bodied business barge.

So, the C63 AMG is fast right? By normal car standards, absolutely. It’s got more power than the average, Corolla-loving motorist has any idea what to do with. In the hands of someone who knows that they’re doing, it’s absolutely formidable. All that speed—and the skill required to go that speed—pales in comparison to the […] More »
