A while ago we brough you a story about a modified 6-series BMW that had 26 inch rims. The car was built by Audronis Gestautas in Lithuania.
In addition to that 6-series BMW Audronis has built another custom car called AG Excalibur.
This fully custom car is based on Mercedes-Benz CL Class and is mainly constructed from PU foam.
It has 30 inch rims in the rear and 24-inch on the front.
Below is a short interview with Audronis:
Tell us more about the Excalibur: Based on Mercedes-Benz CL, complete new body, my design front grill and exhaust, new rear and rear side windows, new roof. The car length is 5.4m, the car is widened 12 cm each side, front 295/30/30 and rear 315/30/30 tires
Any changes on the engine? Engine is the same 5 liter one.
Changes in the interior?
8 cameras + 2 monitors for parking. 2 cameras positioned in the front grill, 2 cameras in outside mirrors ( one filming front wheel, another rear wheel), 2 cameras in the rear bumper.
You can notice 2 huge 25 cm Swarovski crystals. Left one is gear shift leveler, right one is to move cameras. You push it front and see front cameras, push it to the righ you see right front and so on…
Completely new interior. New front and rear seats (Swarovski buttons and creases), new steering wheel, new console, new roof (about 600 Swarovski buttons and Alcantara), new press-buttons. Buttons, press-buttons, gearshift leveler, black material in central console and around monitors- everything Swarovsky.
Could you specify how long did it take to create AG Excalibur?
8 months, 12hours a day including Sundays, no holidays.
Two men : me and the worker.
What were the costs?
No comments on costs. just to give you an idea - rims and spinners are made according to special order from USA. Wheels set including tires cost is same as the new middle size car.
What if someone wanted something similar?
Not decided yet. Could tell only in Autumn.
Any more projects coming?
No projects coming in the near future.
Stumble it!
Cool car
It is MB CL500. Not so bad.
It is made of foam, so it can’t sink in a lake
