Mercedes-Benz S Class Coupé AMG S63 Black Edition
Six examples of the Mercedes AMG S63 Coupé have
been further refined by the luxury manufacturer Mansory to become a Super Benz
going by the name Black Edition. In particular, the bodywork, which is made
completely of carbon fibre, has been given another makeover by the Mansory
designers.
This makes it clearly different to the version
presented at the start of the year at the Geneva Motor Show. Additional air
control blades on the front and rear axle deliver even more downforce and
optimise cooling of the drive train and brakes. A vigorous 1,000 hp, striking
alloy wheels and tasteful, hand-crafted interior modifications complete this
special limited edition model.
Extensive modifications transform the standard
design into an athletic package, full of muscle. The redesigned front with its
LED day driving lights and the powerful cooling air inlets ensures an
awe-inspiring appearance. A lightweight bonnet with integrated NACA inlets
completes the Mansory air-cooling system. The new carbon fender at the front
and the seamlessly integrated spacers on rear fenders widen the sides by 50
millimetres and give the S-Coupé its distinctive, dynamic appearance.
In
addition, perfect harmony is maintained with the new side skirts as well as the
carbon housing of the mirrors. The roof spoiler and rear lip made of carbon
fibre as well as the diffuser-look rear bumper, complete the aggressive, sporty
look. But not only do the Mansory components look good, thanks to the in-house
autoclave manufacturing using carbon fibre, they are also extremely durable and
particularly light.
No other company in the market is as closely
linked to the use of carbon fibre as Mansory. These specialists process this
ultra-light, extremely strong material in their own in-house autoclaves, which
means they don’t have to rely on external suppliers. This gives them complete
freedom in the scope, fit and design of components.
The Mansory sports exhaust for the BLACK EDITION
delivers a throaty, imposing sound. The rear silencer, which is made of
stainless steel with angular twin tailpipes, integrates perfectly into the
newly designed rear section. But Mansory is much more than just a powerful sound.
The performance potential of the eight-cylinder bi-turbo is also fully
exploited by the engine developers at Mansory.
Mansory has completely revised the aggregate of
the S 63 AMG and installed genuine high-performance components with the M1000
performance kit: With this power-upgrade, connecting rods, big end bearings,
crankshaft, bearing bushings, turbocharger, suction and compressor system, as
well as many other parts replace the standard parts. Along with the newly
designed pipe fan manifolds, this results in superb performance figures.
Instead of 576 hp (430 kW), the heavily modified S Class now achieves an
impressive 985 hp (735 kW) while the maximum torque rises to an electronically
limited 1,400 Nm at 1,500 - 3,500 rpm. So when fired up, the MANSORY BLACK
EDITION rockets to 100 km/h in 3.2 seconds and only stops at an electronically
regulated 300 km/h.
It takes a special wheel / tyre combination to
convert this mighty power into forward momentum: The latest development is the
one-piece 22 inch alloy wheel “SPIDER”. As the perfect tyres, Mansory
recommends ULTRAC SESSANTA tyres from Vredestein in size 255/30/ZR22 on the
front axle and 295/25/ZR22 on the rear axle.
Mansory offers exclusive interior features,
totally in keeping with the traditional brand Mercedes, which values comfort
and elegance, but also sportiness when it comes to interiors. Therefore
aluminium pedals as well as the newly designed steering wheel give a sporty
accent. The set of foot mats, which are framed in leather with embroidered
MANSORY emblem, as well as the illuminated door sill trims, underline the
elegant effect.
The elaborately hand-shirred and expertly stitched leather and
carbon fibre seats are a highlight of the interior refinement.
