Put your hands up and give us all your attention! As you can see, we are holding a heavy-weight tuning weapon. We're not afraid to use it so prepare to be shot with information.

We are talking about a Mercedes CL500 tuning kit, which was released by Vath and covers the vehicle's tech, exterior and interior sides.

We'll start with the engine compartment: the 5.5-liter powerplant has been gifted with performance an engine oil cooler, as well as with a fuel cooler, air filters, stainless steel sport catalysts and rear silencer, stainless steel manifolds, sport camshafts, as well as an ECU remap. The engine now delivers 460 hp and 600 Nm of torque. Unfortunately, the company hasn't released the new performance specs.

The tuning company has made sure that the extra power is handled just fine, installing a sports suspensions, as well as a beefier braking system.

The exterior of the luxury coupe has been fitted with multiple carbon fiber components, such as a front spoiler lip, a boot lid spoiler, as well as a rear diffuser. The car now rides on forged wheels that come in a 20-inch size and use a multi-spoke design, being wrapped in performance tires.

The aftermarket developer hasn't neglected the interior, installing a black suede finish, carbon fiber trimming, as well as a sports steering wheel.

What can we say? We're glad the exterior comes with subtle changes and that the development has infested all the tech areas of the German two-door creation.
