The Japanese tuner Wald International has prepared a new tuning package for the Mercedes S-Class. In the tuner’s tradition the new package is called the Black Bison Edition and includes new front and rear bumpers, sportier fender ducts, refreshed sidesteps, two new rear spoilers (one on the decklid and one above the glass), and 22-inch matte Renovatio wheels.
All of the cars will be painted in an exclusive Wald color and will get a new exhaust system with dual tailpipes.
The same treatment has also been recently applied to the E-Class. For that package the tuner added a new front bumper with a protruding lower lip, four large projector style driving lights, and vents on either side. The difference between the tuning kit for the E-Class and the S-Class is that the latest one comes painted in white, while the E-Class featured a black exterior color.
Prices for the new package have not been announced yet.
MEC Design has unveiled a new look for the old S-Class. The styling package will go with the W221 pre-facelift Mercedes luxury sedan.
Created for a customer in Germany, the 2007 S550 looks nearly identical to the S65 AMG. The only thing that might give the car away are it’s lack of LED turn signals in the headlamps and LED daytime running lights in the front bumper.
The MEC team installed AMG bumpers, 20-inch wheels, an ELS lowering module and a high performance exhaust system.
Inside the Mercedes, the cabin has a MEC designed steering wheel and floor mats with leather edging.
We have no idea how much it cost the owner, but we can only guess it sure wasn’t cheap.
We have high expectations when we get behind the wheel of a car that costs $100,000. If a sedan costs as much as a house, or at least a good down payment, then it has to be a cut above. In fact, if a sedan costs four or five times more than a regular sedan shouldn’t we expect it to be at least four or five times greater in every way?
At this price point we expect no compromises. We want to be pampered in luxury while not losing any feel of the road. We want to look smart arriving at social occasions, but not be so flashy that we get nervous parking on the street. Mercedes has specialized in this type of car for over fifty years. Our expectations are high.
