Carlex Rose Vintage based on Mercedes G-Class

Since its introduction in the early 1970s, the G-Class has attracted the attention of many, even those who were not fans of this type of vehicle. The latest generations are increasingly attractive and tuners often use them in their projects. One such model was presented by Carlex Design, Rose Vintage.

Carlex Design is one of the few companies that creatively makes cars better than factory ones. Rose Vintage is just a continuation of the Vintage project that started in 2024 with the Carlex G-Vintage model. This example is painted in Pink and may not appeal to everyone.

The car is equipped with a unique body kit that includes a chrome bumper, a new radiator grille, wider wheel arches, a new rear bumper, and the Carlex logo instead of the Mercedes logo. The lower part of the body is painted in a delicate pink shade, while the upper part is white. It is mounted on a set of chrome rims with pink covers and tires with white side stripes in a retro style.

The interior is upholstered in pink leather, which perfectly matches the exterior. The leather covers the seats, steering wheel, dashboard, door panels and even the trunk. The ceiling is the same color but made of Alcantara, while the armrest has two white lines.

When it comes to the powertrain, it is not known if there have been any changes. As a reminder, the Carlex G-Vintage is powered by a 4.0-L V8 twin-turbo engine with 805 hp (600 kW) and 752 lb-ft (1,020 Nm) of torque, mated to a 9-speed automatic transmission that sends power to all wheels.

G3M Bi-Turbo is the BMW M3 Touring but with more power

In 2022, BMW presented the M3 Touring, which attracted a lot of attention from customers, so a year later the Bavarian company had to increase production. This model was the basis for a new project from Bavarian tuner G-Power called the G3M Bi-Turbo.

The G3M Bi-Turbo looks more aggressive than the M3 Touring thanks to a carbon package that includes a new hood with a large central air vent for cooling the engine compartment, a new splitter, side mirror housings, a rear diffuser, and new Hurricane RR wheels with an orange finish, which matches the orange exterior details.

The interior has also been refreshed with new M carbon bucket seats upholstered in bright orange leather that also covers the dashboard and door panels.

Under the bonnet is an upgraded 3.0-litre twin-turbo 6-cylinder engine with 800 hp and 900 Nm of torque, which is a significant increase in power compared to the Competition version with 510 hp and 660 Nm of torque. The increase in power is achieved by installing new turbochargers, an exhaust system with 200-cell high-flow catalytic converters, and remapping the ECU unit. Top speed has also been increased from 280 km/h to 300 km/h.

G-Power did not say how much the upgrade package costs.
