PT KONTAK PERKASA - If you want to make
your hot wheels hotter, you need to take your ride to the gang at
Vilner. Since 1996, the Bulgarian custom shop/art studio has been
crafting dream machines for fastidious owners around the world.
Case in point, the company’s latest project: formally just another stock 2015 Mercedes-Benz S63 AMG.
The
owner of the top shelf, $160,000-plus S-Class wanted something more
than the paltry Designo interior options offered by Mercedes, so he
turned to the experts at Vilner for help.
The customer, who wishes to remain anonymous, received the full treatment and the car’s interior received a complete makeover. Vilmer refers to him as “The King.”
It seems His Highness wanted more Maybach and less Mercedes for the look and feel of his 585-horsepower black beauty.
Now,
the royal driver and his subjects are smothered in a cocoon of jet
black Alcantara and quilted leather with white stitching. Vilner’s
stitching weaves a fine, silky web throughout the entire cabin including
the swanky S63’s floor mats and even inside the transformed trunk. The
project took 25 days to complete and the cost we are told via email is
confidential.
It looks so good, we’d never let anyone eat, smoke,
or even wear shoes while riding in it — ever. The steering wheel, rear
view mirror, and basically anything you might touch are wrapped in
Alcantara. No bare plastic bits have been left behind here. Also, all
the wood trim is now finished in Piano Gloss Black.
“The result is a black kingdom of luxury, in the exact state that ‘The King’ wanted to be,” Vilner informs us on its website.
It’s good to be the king.
