Brabus Mercedes-Benz has redefined the idea of luxury by featuring the Viano Lounge Concept. The Brabus Mercedes-Benz Viano Lounge Concept features a 32-inc LCD, two Sony VAIO laptops, a PlayStation 3, Nespresso machine, and even a Vertu Constellation Phone, along with speakers all throughout the vehicle, to play your favorite tunes.

The housing is made from an elaborate combination of stainless steel, scratch-proff sapphire glass and leather interior covers. The concept also provides on-board refreshments, a dimensioned refrigerator, and reclinable seats.

Watch movies, play games, surf the net, maybe some coffee? It’s all a hand-reach away! Welcome to the future. Make this your home away from home!

New Addition to the Autobots!

Friday, February 13th, 2009

That’s right Transformers fans, the Autobots have a new addition! Chevrolet is proud to announce that “Sideswipe” will be played by the new Corvette Stingray Concept. Announced and unveiled yesterday at the Chicago Auto Show, Sideswipe rolled out all crouched and silver, muscular and menacing, ready to pounce. Across his haunches is written “Stingray,” and indeed, a ray glides gently down his voluptuous flanks. The resemblance is unmistakable. The stiff, arching creases over the fenders standing proud over a bulging, muscular hood; the angular split windows curving down over a tapered tail scream “I’m a Corvette – from the future!”

It has been more than a decade since a new Corvette concept has appeared, and it will now be taking the world by storm.

Autobots Roll Out!!!

SEMA 2008 Recap

Monday, November 10th, 2008

Each year the SEMA show provides an opportunity for the specialty automotive industry folks to come together, network, display and promote their products. It also provides a showcase for all sorts of new products to be presented for the first time.  Due to the economy and the Green movement the SEMA show was a little different this year.

As always customization is king, not only in the looks department but also in the speed and performance areas. Companies in the auto industry have had to go back to the drawing board to create new items that make you “look cool” and stand out from everyone else that has the same car as you… This is easy when it comes to the lookin’ fly aspect, but it isn’t a quick process when enhancing the performance of a hybrid. Many companies introduced  green performance alternatives for those thinking about souping up their Smart Car while staying eco friendly. Others stuck to the traditional foundations of speed… true horsepower. Their green alternative is replacing horsepower with man power, and switching out 4 wheels for 2. You want to go green? simple solution… ride a bike.

Overall this year’s show was a good one, expect to see a lot more color in the world of rides and rims… Check out some of my faves from the show.
