Attractive bodywork design in optimal harmony of forms: FAB - DESIGN makes the new Mercedes CL-class even more exciting.

Enough is never enough: This is the motto behind FAB DESIGN's extensive refinement treatment of the grand Mercedes coupe. The new wide body aerodynamic programm fits in harmony into the entire picture and gives the vehicle a more sporty appearance. The FAB DESIGN wide body front bumper forms a unit with the new wide front fenders and takes up the line guidance at the new CL. A big opening placed in the middle provides a lot of fresh air for the coolers. The left and right side intakes serve a lot of cooling for the brakes. Despite the enlargement of the fender the harmony and elegance of the basic CL is fully preserved. The front fender sideopenings behind the salient enlargements act as an additional cooling element. The lightly overstanding sideskirts at the door bottom edge, make the CL look not only sporty but also dynamical and stylish. The sporty and dynamic looking rear fender with the intakes provides a lot of ventilation for a sufficient cooling of the rear brake system.

The sophisticated and unique design of the rear bumper convert the CL next to the efficient aerodynamic also a breath taking optic. The shape of the lower section of the rear bumper produces an excellent downforce value.

The new shape of the four integrated slightly horizontal placed exhaust endpipes, is just another way to reflect the unique way of FAB DESIGN inspiration.

FAB DESIGN goes own ways also for the light alloy wheel. The 3-pces forged FAB DESIGN type 6 EVOLINE wheel fascinates through its own and athletically optic. The aluminium wheels look through the low bed particularly big, the wheels are completely painted in the car color (titanium brilliant grey). The visible chromed screws look technical and give a sporty finish. The front axle is fitted with wheels in dimensions of 10J x 20, the rear axle even with 12J x 20 inch. Dunlop Sportmax tires in the dimensions of 255/30 ZR 20 for the front axle and 305/25 ZR 20 for the rear axle, providing sufficient "Grip" by all speeds. Combined with the modificated suspension results in an indescribable curvening pleasure without influencing negatively the straight run. The interior is another new way from FAB DESIGN. The complete interior is in light beige FAB DESIGN leather/alcantara and the middle sections of the seats in FAB DESIGN crocolook light brown. This crocolook imitation is made of genuine car leather and respects all the required norms. The new developed FAB DESIGN sport seats in the front give to the interior a very luxury and sporty touch.

The performance: the engineers from FAB DESIGN have developed a costly conversion that upgrades the performance of the V12 Biturbo to 650 PS and the torque to fabulous 1120 Newtonmeter. In the FAB DESIGN S60 BT performance kit only strengthen or new constructed parts are used, which in spite of high strain guarantee a long life duration, as they are usualy in the (OEM) set. The mechanic and electronic of the gear unit belongs also to the extend of the upgraded performance package as well as the power of the adaptation of the brakesystem.

Values:

performance: 650 PS /478 KW by 5400 rpm.
torque: 1120 Nm by 1800-3600 rpm.
top speed: 320 km/h
acceleration 0-100: 4.2 Sec.
