It’s been a long time since we lastly talked about a tuning package created for a model bearing Jaguar’s badge but today we have the opportunity to present a new styling kit, this time developed by the Japanese specialists from Wald International. The tuning house decided that it is the right time to revise the Jaguar XJ X350 and this is how the Black Bison Edition has been created.
As you observe from the photos, this tuning package is dedicated to the previous Jaguar XJ generation but this is only an insignificant information because they did a good job and managed to refresh the British model even the new generation is already out.
In terms of performance tweaks, the Japanese specialists operated no modifications therefore, you get no extra power from the previous generation Jaguar XJ. However, this is not an issue, the main preoccupation of the tuners being to make the model attractive again with some fine improvements.
In this purpose, they added a new front bumper along a rear spoiler, boot lid and roof spoiler, new side mirrors with LED lights and a new set of side skirts. The Jaguar XJ X350 Black Bison Edition also benefits from 21-inch Renovatio R12 wheels fitted with 255/30R21 (front) and 295/25R21 (rear) tires. Wald International included a DTM TW240 sports muffler to this package for a better sound of the engine.
At the interior, the Japanese tuning house prepared a leather upholstery for the seats, Wald International logos, custom floor mats and some aluminum trim. Pricing for this tuning kit is still a mystery but if you own one of these you can surely contact the Japanese tuner for further information.
Rikk 30 Jul, 2011The German tuning house decided to create a tuning kit for the current Maserati Gran Turismo S, a package called Superior Black Edition which brings both aesthetic and performance upgrades for the Italian supercar. The performance tweaks are not very impressive but the styling improvements significantly increase the car’s appearance and make it more attractive if it hasn’t been yet.
According to the official details, Anderson Germany revised the 4.7-liter V8 unit which fits the Italian model in order to deliver 492 horsepower. This means that you get 52 horses in addition over the standard model, extra power which will slightly improve the acceleration time, official figures being not available yet.
Other features of the new Superior Black Edition package include a stainless-steel exhaust system for a special engine sound along a high performance suspension able to lower the ground clearance of the model. On the other hand, the styling tweaks are more visible and they manage to bring a fresh air along with a more aggressive look.
The main feature of the aesthetic improvements is the matt black exterior finish along the 21-inch alloy wheels fitted with 265 (front) and 295 (rear) tires.
The exterior also benefits from some glossy black trim, a new bonnet with air intake, front and rear aprons, side air inlets and a tailgate. All of these components are made of lightweight carbon fiber and match perfectly the black body finish and the wheels.
The interior of the Maserati Gran Turismo S could not be ignored, therefore, Anderson Germany prepared some refinements including new black leather and alcantara upholstery, a new infotainment system, red stitching and also carbon fiber trim.
“To choose a Maserati GranTurismo, a coupĂ© manufactured by the world famous Italian premium car workshop, as a base for possible gentle corrections of this near to perfection driving machine, it demands a lot of mastership and workmanship. But ANDERSON Germany, at home at Dusseldorf and other places in Germany, has rendered several spectacular examples of its efficient inventiveness,” adds the tuner.
Rikk 30 Jul, 2011Exceptions to MPVs being boring exist, most of them happen when instead of getting a daily chore of ferrying loud kids, they act as a bus for more or less loud business executives.
That’s where stuff gets really interesting as the interior fittings and equipment becomes impressive and they actually get used instead of destroyed.
One of the finest of this relatively rare breed is Mercedes B Class and, for the 2012 model year the interior of it got to a point where it’s nearly incredible.
The Germans edited the released photos of the interior of the 2012 Mercedes B Class but to be honest, it wasn’t necessary.
Everything inside this soon to be launched 2012 Mercedes B Class is so refined and well made (at least in appearance) that i reckon a few shots snapped with a phone would still have done justice to the release.
The appearance and the quality seems to be there to a point where it’s similar to what you find on the new 2012 CLS as opposed to the older versions of the B Class which cost a lot of money in relevance to what they were worth.
Incredibly, despite the very well done interior of the 2012 B Class Mercedes say you don’t have to have it one way or another.
As a premiere for the world of MPVs you can customize anything from the dashboard to most of the materials used on the interiors on cars from a much more impressive range of cars.
You can even have the dashboard of the 2012 Mercedes B Class covered in hand-stitched ARTICO man-made leather.
Another fine detail of the 2012 Mercedes B Class is to be found in the shared air vents with the three pointed star’s flagship, the SLS AMG.
It seems that the people behind this new update and design aren’t really the Germans at Mercedes but the Italians which work for their new design center.
At this Mercedes-Benz approved Advanced Design Studio in Como, Italy is where the people working for it decided to take the small MPV market forward by a few classes.
If you’re interested in seeing this interior for yourself as well as the rest of the 2012 Mercedes B Class you may want to look up tickets for the Frankfurt Motor Show.
At the September scheduled event, Mercedes will unveil the car which will go on sale only weeks later in November, throughout Europe.
