The new Mercedes S-Class is widely regarded, by people who know what they’re talking about, as the best car in the world. Still, there are tuners who think they are capable of improving on perfection. The way they go about doing this though, is rather peculiar.

They believe the S-Class is too dignified and luxurious. What it needs is a hit of sportiness. Check out this 2014 Mercedes S-Class by German Special Customs. In this car the sportiness is brought on by a unique styling kit and an engine treatment that promises tons of power.

There is a new front bumper featuring a lip spoiler, larger air intakes, and LED lights. The front grille is fully-blacked-out, and so are the headlights. The hood has holes in it, and there is a pair of side skirts making the car look more muscular. Round at the back, you get a boot lip spoiler and a revised bumper with air vents, a diffuser and new tailpipes. A set of 21-inch wheels, naturally in black, wraps things up.

Engine-wise, Mercedes S-Class by German Special Customs doesn’t even bother with the normal powertrains, and goes straight to the 5.5 liter bi-turbo V8 of the S63 AMG. They say that with a bit of work they can extract up to 850 horsepower out of it. That is going to make a difference in the way the car feels.
