Vorbild Benz CLS

I am far from an expert on high end European cars (mainly because I am a poor sap), but I found this interesting take on on the Mercedes C219 CLS by Elite Sports/Vorbild in Japan. This car is fully tuned using all Vorbild parts and was originally displayed at the Tokyo Special Import Car Show last year.

Exterior-wise, the car is set up with a full Vorbild aero package including a carbon front spoiler, side skirts, rear panel, and fender extensions. A low-rise GT-wing has also been thrown into the mix adding to the cars race-inspired looks. Just the aero parts alone run about $7500 US but if you are rolling in a CLS I don't think that's much of a worry.

Under the hood, the normal CLS500 V8 is outfitted with an intercooled supercharger as well as high performance camshafts. The wheels are forged Vorbild UL5 wheels in a mean-looking flat back. The brakes are by  Endless/Ewig built to special Vorbild specs.

In the end, it comes out as an an aggressive package even if it is a little over the top. This car would get a ton of attention even Roppongi Hills or Shinjuku, where exotic, high-dollar machines are the norm. Whatever you think of it, it's still a nice break from the luxury cars that look like they just rolled out of a typical rap video.
