2011 Mercedes-Benz SLS AMG by MEC Design


 
  Review 
 
   

There have been plenty of aftermarket companies that have released program options for the Mercedes SLS AMG. And with the car’s popularity continuing to soar, you can expect that more and more companies are ready to take a stab at the German supercar. Some of them even have already done so more than once.

MEC Design is no stranger to working on the SLS AMG, so much so in fact that their first design for the car was introduced 18 months ago. Fast forward to this week and the aftermarket company has prepared a new program for the SLS 63 AMG, one that includes an aerodynamic package for a customer from Florida.

MEC Design’s exterior package for the SLS 63 AMG includes a two-piece front spoiler, a spoiler lip finished in carbon, optional LED headlights, new side sills with four optional LED lights per side, a rear trunk-lid lip, a two-piece rear roof spoiler, a roof air scoop, a custom built, stainless steel sport exhaust system, three different diffuser options (Extreme, Formula, or GT3), and a set of mecxtreme3 allow wheels that are available in either 20" or 21".

Inside the car, MEC Design gave the SLS AMG a sports steering wheel dressed in carbon and Alcantara with leather/Alcantara and carbon/leather combinations coming as added options for customers. Speaking of carbon fiber, there’s plenty of the high-end material placed inside to make it look like its swimming in the posh item. Carbon inserts have been applied on the middle console, door guards, entry guard, the seat casings, and just behind the rear seats.

There’s plenty to see if you have the photos to look at. Fortunately, we have a mega gallery that you can consume at your heart’s desire.

UPDATE 05/22/2012: MEC Design may not have one of the most impressive tuning packages for the Mercedes SLS AMG, but their promo package for the sports coupe is definitely one of the most impressive videos we have seen in the past few months. The video was directed by Daniel Michaelis, filmed by Daniel Michaelis and Willi Fast, and narrated by Claudia Black. Hit the jump to check it out!

I think I like it a lot better when it’s not static.

It’s all thanks to MEC Design that the already charismatic SLS is even more appealing now.

That video surely changed my view upon this car a bit. It’s gotten more appealing in motion than in a still picture.

I love the body paint that they use on it. It looks very decent and classy on that. Moreover, I’m so impressed on its high-tech door even on the fact that it has a very efficient and awesome engine.

Well, its kind of disappointing that this tuning company didn’t offer any engine upgrade! Aside on the modified exterior I would love to see a boost in the power output.

The gullwing of the car has made it more sporty and aggressive. However, I think those heavy doors have increase the weight of the car. I bet this vehicle has a less powerful engine.

Well, Talking about the performance of this car I think no other car tuning company that give this car an impressive performance but elegance.

Come to think of it, the SLS AMG will always look good no matter what package you put on it. But still, I couldn’t help but be amazed by the looks of this baby.
