Mobile Office | Brabus iBusiness SV12 R for MBenz S 600 [iPads Included]

Mobile Office | Brabus iBusiness SV12 R for MBenz S 600 [iPads Included]

At last year’s Frankfurth Motor Show, German car tuner Brabus unveiled their SV12 R, a wondrous beauty which took the stock Mercedes-Benz S 600 and gave it 750 horsepower, a whopping 240 pony add-on. This year, never to be outdone, Brabus has taken the S 600 and kitted with the best Apple products money can buy, essentially turning the top-of-the-line model in the elite mobile office.

Included in the package are two Apple iPads, a 64GB iPod Touch and a beautiful 15.2-inch Mac display to ensure the driver can’t see anything through the rear-view. Not only can you use the iPads for their natural uses like watching a movie or browsing the web but they will give you all the functions of the S-Class COMMAND system. The setup is powered by the Mac Mini, Apple’s small and most affordable computer.

So all this coupled with the ability to go from 0-62 mph in 4 seconds seems unreal but folks it’s as real as it gets.

Elite Aston Martin LMV/R

The 2010 Aston Martin Vantage has gotten some much-welcomed enhancements courtesy of U.S. based tuner Elite. They’ve released the final concept images of their new 2010 Aston Martin LMV/R (Le Mans Vantage Racer), which is lighter and more aggressive than the stock Vantage. The carbon fiber body kit consists of a new front bumper, visible carbon canards, a carbon front splitter, hood, 2-inch wider fenders, side skirts, rear quarter panel extensions – also 2-inches wider, a carbon trunk lid with visible carbon rear wing and a rear bumper with carbon diffuser.

Elite says the car takes much influence from the Ferrari Scuderia and Stradale and Lamborghini Superleggera. Like these beauties, the LMV/R will be very rare as well, with only 30 examples being produced and sold on the international market. All will be produced in Florida with a price tag of $173,000 plus the cost of the Vantage.
