2012 Mercedes-Benz C63 AMG

The Benz marque stay innovative


Thanks to the new photos, we are able to see the more aggressive front fascia and updated grille as well as LED fog lights and new headlights. With a clear view of the back end, we are able to see that very few updates have been made other than updated tail lights and a restyled bumper.

As for the engine, the power will continue to be provided by a naturally-aspirated 6.3-liter (6208cc) V8 engine with 451 hp (336 kW / 457 PS) and 443 lb-ft (600 Nm) of torque. To improve fuel efficiency and performance, there is a seven-speed ‘SpeedShift’ MCT transmission. The sporty sedan will accelerate from 0-100 km/h in 4.5 seconds and average 12.0 L/100km or 19.6 mpg. The C63 AMG Estate goes from 0-100 km/h in 4.6 seconds and consumes an average of 12.3 L/100km or 19.1 mpg US

Mercedes Benz SLS Gullwing- Past & Present

The original 1956 300 SL Gullwing next to a 2010 SLS 63 AMG. A six-cilinder with direct injection delivering 215bhp next to a 6.2 liter V8 engine delivering 563bhp. Arguably one of the most beautiful Mercedes-Benz created, its great to see the craftsmanship and heritage is still transcending despite the 45 years difference between both models.

We Can See This BMW With Our Eyes Closed….

A cool new campaign from BMW uses an optical illusion called an afterimage effect to cause viewers to see the BMW logo when they closed their eyes after seeing the commercial.  Check out the video and see how they did it….but we have to get flashed ourselves to believe it.

BMW has figured out a way to burn itself into perspective customers' heads – or at least their eyes.

Lighting manufacturer Profoto worked with BMW on a commercial in which light effects let viewers temporarily see "BMW" when they close their eyes, according to theHuffington Post .

The company used an optical illusion called an "afterimage" effect.

Wired.com reported it was created by hiding a Profoto Pro 7B studio flash unit behind the screen at a German movie theater. A card with the letters "BMW" cut into it was placed in front of the light.

The flash fired during the advertisement and burned the letters into the viewers' retinas. As a motorcyclist in the commercial told people to close their eyes, they did so and saw "BMW" projected onto the backs of their eyelids.

An afterimage is also known as a ghost image, according to Wikipedia . The most common is the bright light that seems to float before someone's eyes if the person looks into a light source for a few seconds then looks away

This sounds and looks very innovative, hopefully when I go to see the movie ,Tron this commercial will pop up and then I can co-sign what sounds impossible right now...science and technology just keeps on evolving into realms we could not have foreseen decades ago.
