Blacked Out Mercedes S550 On Vossen Wheels by Exclusive Motoring

 

Miami's Own, Exclusive Motoring, released photos of a gorgeous Mercedes Benz S550. However, this isn't just any S550, it's my favorite kind of S550. Exclusive Motoring blacked out the exterior of the car, painted blue brake calipers, and is now lowered, while wearing color matched Vossen VFS2 Wheels in 22 inches. 

Have I mentioned that I love a blacked out vehicle lately?

Bernie's Cargram Feed: February 8-9th

I decided to do another Instagram Feed, where I share my favorite photos (well, the automotive related ones) of the ones that I follow from a particular day. Well, this time I decided to compile the best photos from this weekend that just ended.

To kick things off, I decided to include a photo that was taken the previous weekend at Atlanta's Caffeine and Octane. Now, I'm not a person who poses in photos, and you can see that with my Instagram page (@CarShowBernie).

And I decided to pose, thanks to @teamlmp.

Topo of TS Designs (@wide_body_king) released another picture of one of his most successful projects. Remember how TS Designs, JC Kustomz, and Forgiato created the widebodied Corvette Stingray??? Well, now aside from the hardtop, you can get the same widebodied goodness in a convertible. If it ain't broke, don't fix it...

MC Customs (@MCCustomsMiami) posted this behind the scenes shot of two cars- one's wearing Savini Wheels, the other is wearing Vossen Wheels. Side note: I'm extremely happy that the photographer is shooting with a Canon.

Vossen Wheels Shows off a Mercedes C63 AMG Black Series

At 2012s SEMA Show, Vossen Wheels unveiled their new Precision Forged Wheels. To fully show off the beauty behind their new one piece, lightweight forged creation, Vossen installed the wheels on a Mercedes Benz C63 AMG Black Series (20x9 in the front, 20x11 in the rear). As time wore on, the C63 became more and more popular, traveling from Vegas and Tokyo and returning back home to Miami, but it didn't get the full Vossen treatment, until now.

After teasing their fans for a few weeks, Vossen Wheels released photos and a video of the world's famous Mercedes Benz C63 AMG Black Series on their Precision Forged Wheels.  

Vossen Wheels Shows off a 2014 C7 Corvette Stingray

Vossen Wheels does it again. The car of the moment right now is the 2014 C7 Corvette Stingray, and I have a feeling that it'll be the most popular car at SEMA. Chevrolet redesigned the Corvette and it was unveiled at this years' New York International Auto Show. Those who preordered it are finally getting their vehicles- including many aftermarket part companies.

Some companies are waiting to unveil their Corvettes at SEMA, but Vossen decided to be ahead of the curve and unveil theirs now. This Stingray is now wearing Vossen's new Precision Series wheels, the CVT (20 inches in the front, 21 inches in the back)- which happens to work GREAT on high performance vehicles such as the Nissan GT-R, the Mercedes SL, and everyone's favorite... the Ford Mustang. Check out the video below...

For Sale: Vossen Wheels Sells Custom Ferrari 458 Italia Coupe

One of my favorite wheel companies, Vossen Wheels, decided to part ways with their company car. This particular 2011 Ferrari 458 Italia is subtlety fully customized. The 458 is equipped with $20,000 Novitec and Capristo carbon fiber body kit and 21x9 and 22x12 Vossen Precision Series Forged Wheels wrapped in Pirelli tires. Might I add that the car is kept in perfect mint condition and clean title. The 2 year service was just done in January, so you have a year and a half until you have to go back again, and the Ferrari factory warrenty is still valid until July 29th 2014. And since Vossen Wheels was in the generous spirit, they're also including the 20 inch factory wheels and tires. 

FYI: The MSRP of the Novitec and Capristo carbon fiber body kit ALONE is $19,620.

Oh and I failed to tell you that Vossen Wheels wants $1,290,000.00. If you're interested, check out the Ebay ad for this Ferrari 458 Italia. But remember: company car = tax write off.
