(from Art Tuning
Press Release) The super sports car from ART on the basis
of a Mercedes CLS55/63 AMG will be available in April 2006. He
covers all wishes concerning a hotblooded sports car of formidable
performance and subtle, elegant design in coupé manner. Unique
stars that leave nothing to be desired.
The developers from ART
in Nuremberg, Germany succeeded in launching the GTR into the
segment of top-class sports cars. Comprehensive, tightly focussed
upgrades transformed the basis CLS55/63 AMG into a meaty sports tool
with brilliant performance. At the same time its appearance displays
an air of diplomatic elegance, without drifting into the harsh
design lines of its class competitors.
A shift into a higher
level for the 4-door CLS coupé from Mercedes-Benz concerning
performance, exterior and interior. During the “Middle East Motor
Show” Dubai in December 2005 the refined sports vehicle had its
first introduction to the public. Next official introduction step
will be the “Special Import Car Show” in Tokyo April 2006. Customers
