The all new exclusive power off-roader from Brabus is based on the latest Mercedes-Benz G63 AMG. Powered by a 5.5-liter V8 Biturbo engine that produces 456.3 kW / 620 hp (611 bhp) of power, the all-wheel-drive car accelerates from rest to 100 km/h (62 mph) in just 5.1 seconds and reaches a top speed of 230 km/h (143 mph).

For the new Mercedes-Benz G63 AMG the Brabus engine specialists developed the B63 – 620 performance kit, which is also available in custom versions for all other AMG 63 models powered by a Biturbo eight-cylinder engine. It comes with a Widestar wide-body kit and 23-inch “Platinum Edition” Monoblock forged wheels.

The looks of the new Brabus B63 – 620 Widestar are far from ordinary as well. The Brabus designers have styled a thrilling Widestar wide-body version specifically for the facelift generation of the G-Class.

The Brabus interior can be custom-tailored to each owner’s individual preferences with especially soft and breathable Brabus Mastik leather or Alcantara in a multitude of colors. Customers have equally unlimited choices in the upholstery design and the wood inlays. Upon request the latter can be ordered in any desired color, even including an especially exclusive yachting-design finish.

1969 Ford Mustang Made Out Of Paper

Jonathan Brand build every single part of the 1969 Ford Mustang made -compliantly- out of paper. He is very skilled when it comes to handling paper. Using 3D software he’s able to flatten out a model of the car into printable sections that can then be carefully folded and glued together.

Jonathan has completed the engine, the seats, a steer wheel and tire, and one of the doors, all in perfect details. Too bad the final work will not be assembled into an entire vehicle, but rather displayed as loose miniature sculptures. If you want to know more about Jonathan cool project, you can always visit his website.
