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.

City Sports Cars Challenge (A review) AUDI S5 x BMW M3 x LEXUS IS-F x MERCEDES-BENZ C63 AMG

Lexus IS-F

Audi S5

BMW M3

Mercedes-Benz C63 AMG

The BMW M and Mercedes AMG have always been dominant in the market when it comes to balancing luxury and high performance, however it would be naive to ignore the vast progression of Audi in the last decade especially with the S Line and also we should not count out the Japanese giant Lexus either. Thus a comprehensive review will be done on the following cars, with expert opinions based on facts and also my candid comprehension of this exciting competition....

Throwback of the Week: Jay-Z Feat Mary J Blige - Can't knock the Hustle

A classic song with an amazing video...the cinematic feel is incredible...

BMW M3 Vs Audi RS5 video review

One of the most popular reviews in the sport luxury segment is the the one between the BMW M3 and its top competitor, Audi RS5.
The M3 is powered by the S65B40 engine, a naturally aspirated, high revving 4-liter V8 (based on the S85B50 5-liter V10 that powers the E60/E61 M5 and the E63/E64 M6 to date) delivering 414 horsepower (309 kW; 420 PS) at 8,300 rpm and peak torque of 400 Nm (300 lb-ft) at 3,900 rpm.
Based on the A5 coupe, RS5’s 4.2-liter V-8 makes 450 hp at 8250 rpm – coincidentally, about 30 horsepower over the 4.0L V8 of the M3 – and maximum torque is 317 lb-ft, available between 4000 and 6000 rpm. The hand-built engine is direct-injected and closely related to the 420-hp V-8 which powers the R8 supercar.
Top speed is electronically governed at 155 mph or 174 mph, spec’d to your order. Zero to 62 mph is accomplished in a claimed 4.6 seconds.
And as always, the following question arise: is the RS5 as good as the M3? The usual question that almost always received the same answer: M3. The UK fellows at AutoExpress decided to put the two cars in a head-to-head comparison on camera.



A nice short review...BMW is still the top dog!!!

Jay-Z & Warren Buffet Discuss Success At The 400 Forbes Summit

There are very few people from my neighborhood that make it out. Forget about being successful, I mean making it out alive or just incarcerated. I have a great friend who just came home, one of the most beautiful people you’d ever meet; he just came home from doing 13 years. And we were together every single day. Back then there was a guy by the name of Jazz who I started out with. He had a deal with EMI. He had the opportunity to go to London to record his album. I went along with him for two months. In those two months there was a sting operation and they took my friend I’m talking about, for 13 years. The only reason I wasn’t there was because I was away doing this music stuff. Had it not been for music, and music taking me out at the right time, my life could very easily have been his, very easily. - Jay-Z
