VW, BMW, Mercedes, Porsche profits at serious risk
Analysts believe Trump's proposed tariffs could cost German brands more than 10% of operating profits go through Chris Chilton 3 hours ago If President-elect Trump imposes new import tariffs, profits for Germany's big automakers could be significantly eroded. Analysts told Handelsblatt that Volkswagen, BMW and Mercedes could lose more than 10% of operating profits.

Experts warn that German carmakers should be prepared to lose more than 10% of current operating profits. Although Trump has not yet taken office, let alone imposed any tariffs, he has seriously talked about doing so, and foreign automakers cannot afford to view this as an idle threat. According to Marklines, German brands alone export 583,000 vehicles from Europe to the United…

Widebody Mercedes SLR McLaren Speedster Out-Crazies Mansory
This range-topping SLR McLaren appears to draw inspiration from the AMG GT-based Speedlegend go through Brad Anderson November 8, 2024 14:10 The wild Speedster version of the SLR McLaren is 10 inches wider than the regular version. Some of the car's crazy aero parts are ripped straight from the early 2000s. A few years ago, John Sarkisyan from the little-known tuning brand S Klub launched a custom widebody Mercedes-Benz 300SL Roadster. He has since overhauled several other classic Mercedes, Ferrari and Porsche models, and unveiled the Là SLR at this year's SEMA show. It's a wild take on the iconic Mercedes-Benz SLR McLaren, which makes Mansory's SLR "Renovatio" look conservative in comparison. A 30-piece body kit was developed for the German supercar. The kit includes flared front and rear wheel arches, widening them by 10 inches, and while we don't mind the new arches, some of the other changes are more questionable.
