In addition to the Mercedes W221 S-Class, there was hardly a more elegant vehicle in the Mercedes repertoire from 2009-2015 than the W212 series of the Mercedes E-Class. Although the E-Class looked significantly more angular and bulky compared to the previous model W211, the upper class Limo with its angular headlights was more the typical vehicle for people aged 50+. Today, however, we found a specimen that turns the complete understatement of the E-Class on its head and is hard to beat in terms of aggressiveness and brutality. With so many changes, you can't even decide where to start. We try it with the body! In elaborate manual work, the E-Class was a widebody kit missed that was not about set but painstakingly seamlessly integrated into the body. In particular, the front fenders were extremely wide and also equipped with side gills made of carbon. And the wheel arches behind are significantly beefier and go into a perfectly adapted bumper.
Of course, the front AMG Style bumper was adapted to the wide fenders and the whole looks as natural as it would come directly from the Mercedes production. To add some aggressiveness to the front, a carbon front spoiler lip was fitted around the entire bumper. Next to the Bodykit approaches for the side skirts, an aggressive rear diffuser of a sports exhaust system in E63 AMG optics houses, a discreet spoiler lip on the boot lid and a roof spoiler. Incidentally, all aerodynamic parts are made of classy carbon fiber and are therefore color-coded. Of course, the extreme wheel arch extensions also have their reason because an OZ Futura wheelset with Radinox rim base should be fitted with 20 × 10,5 inch bulky at the front axle and completely crazy 20 × 12,5 inches at the rear.
The multi-part aluminum rims are fitted with 235 tires on the front axle and 295 slippers at the rear. Through the rims you can also see a new brake system and a system from Brembo was installed on the front axle with yellow-painted 6-piston calipers and 380 mm brake discs and on the rear axle with a 4-piston system and also 380 mm large brake discs. And what would such a complex conversion be without an extreme lowering? Of course, nothing else could come into question here than an Airride air suspension including Airlift 3P system + 2 compressors of the ViAir 480c type. From now on it is possible to move the E-Class down to the last millimeter in the direction of the road or to put it in a "normally drivable" state at the push of a button. And there have also been a lot of changes in the interior and of course the two-tone leather in Dakota Red Wine & Beige that was used from the steering wheel to the headliner to the floor mats is particularly impressive. But the front seats on the E-Coupe cannot be overlooked either and appear much sportier than the standard seating on the E-Class Limo.
And you can see a new sound system, as far as we know it consists of a Consonance 10 inch subwoofer and a 2-channel power amplifier. So far, unfortunately, we have no information as to whether an increase in performance has been made, but it is known that the catalysts have been removed and that alone should provide some additional horsepower. As the last highlight, the E-Class was completely repainted in maroon candy red, which with its high-gloss effect rounds off the extremely elaborate project in a mega-impressive manner and is partly reminiscent of chrome foil. Incidentally, the vehicle was built in remote Indonesia and from the magazine Hawk'n'Poke captured with these beautiful pictures. If we get further information about the modifications, there is of course, as always, an update for this report.
