This here folks is the AMG-Mercedes showcase S63 AMG Concept car. Why they still call it a 63 is beyond me as the new engine is a twin turbo 5.5-litre V8. But the Gurus of All Mighty Grunt, AMG has done it again. It has plastered an S-Class with racing livery, added a full roll cage and race seats to it. Imagine a 50 year old CEO of some large multi-national company driving a car decked out like this.

 

The supposedly stripped out racer like concept for the car together with all the stickers is because Mercedes wants to gather some nostalgic moments in which the car pays homage to the 1971 300SEL AMG racing car. That was the one of the first AMG powered Mercedes

  • Space: Large and Empty

    Over the weekend I fell into a bit of a science-fiction/science rabbithole.

    Singapore is known to be a melting pot of different cultures, races, people and of course, cuisines from all over the world. You can probably find food from most places here in Singapore, but we also have some dishes that we like to think of as our national dish - okay, google says there isn't an officially declared national dish, but Chicken Rice is one of those that's often mentioned. Yes, we all love Chicken Rice, but it isn't really unique to Singapore.... Nasi Lem

    Why cross-border road trips are now easier with Singtel Dash

    As your all-in-one mobile e-wallet, having Dash on hand makes topping up your TNG eWallet more secure and seamless - with competitive rates to boot too! Within the short span of a few years, road trips up into Malaysia have taken on a more tech-centric guise. We're talking, of course, about the rise and the omnipresence of the all-powerful Touch 'n Go eWallet (TNG eWallet). With most merchants in Malaysia now accepting cashless payments via the TNG eWallet, you could effectively g

    Challenging myself to a week without coffee or sweetened drinks

    Sometimes, the key to spicing up your life can take a very simple and mundane form. Or in the case of a challenge I embarked on in early-July, a bland and literally tasteless one. Feeling sometime in mid-June that I had been swept up too mindlessly by the push-and-pull of the everyday, and seeing that I *had* to reclaim some sense of agency with the way I lived, I eventually decided: I would allow myself only water as a drink. I'm pretty sure Yakun and Toast Box lost a fair bit o
