This bad ass one of a kind Mercedes CLS 55 is the work of the NY tuning company, AI-Design who built this stealth-machine for the co-founder of DC-Shoes, Ken Block. Finished in matte black from tip to tail, this custom CLS is accented by a vented hood and gleaming orange Brembo racing brake calipers at all four wheels (20"). 
Tail and side marker lamps have all been tinted, and a bronze-cast DC Shoes logo, hand-sculpted by a jeweler commissioned by Ai Design, has also been finished in piano black and affixed to the trunk alongside the factory emblem. You can also fin the DC Shoes logo interior as it was embroidered into each of the car's four interior headrests
But its not only about design as the CLS 55's heart has been upgraded by using Brabus K8 engine tuning components yielding 575Hp. Guess it pays off selling shoes...Via: Autoblog.nl
