Thumbs up Brabus & Carlsson CL in Essen

I completely agree with the complaints of the W216 CL being too dull and too Korean in standard outfit. Thankfully people are hard at work to correct that problem

Carlsson CK60 basis CL600


Brabus T13 basis CL600

Carlsson version looks mad VIP.
I like it a LOT.
Look at the rear mami, that's just too sexi.

I hate you, sprins!

I was supposed to be there, again, this year....

I do thank you for the pics, though.

Did you see the Gumpert Apollo, the Caparo T1, or the Leblanc Mirabeau there - or was it just the Big Boys?

I didn't see any of those. Could be that I missed them, though I was there during the press day, so I would have had all the opportunity...

Did see some nice things though. Also from Abt and Oettinger for the Audi TT. We have an entire Essen category if you are interested (still filling up, A_R_T and Lorinser a.o. are pending): http://www.autoblog.nl/archive/categ...ws/essen_2006/

Very. They also have a mad as hell CLS GTR on display (and I'm not kidding about the mad or the hell).

I'll PM you the CL picture. Please don't redistribute as I want to publish it first myself.

I can't decide which one I like more.... ART or Carlsson... I guess it's like comparing apples and oranges.

Regardless, can't wait to start selling some of the Carlsson stuff for the new CL
