VATH modifies 2010 Mercedes E500 Coupe

For their latest project VATH technicians pick the new Mercedes E-Coupe 500 and do naughty things to it! It’s not as crazy as their other jobs we’ve seen so far, but still, pretty impressive and expensive.

The 388 hp V8 engine of the Coupe is modified with optimizing the engine’s software, including raising the maximum speed limit, sport air filter and complete sport exhaust device with sport catalysts.

Those changes increase the power to 435 hp and 575 nm of torque, and that, in great harmony, increases the top speed to 280 km/h! Of course this engine package alone will set you back as near as makes no difference 9,000 Euros!

Other improvements include fitting an adjustable suspension which can drop the car between 20 and 60 mm, bigger brakes with 6-piston caliper, and 20-inch wheels wrapped in high performance tires.

The car also gets a few carbon aero parts on the bumpers and also a bootlid spoiler, while the interior package is bespoke to the owner and includes carbon fiber trims and new toys.
