 Project Kahn and Lorinser unite in tuning partnership
Kahn Lorinser S-Class

German tuner Lorinser and UK-based Project Kahn partner on a tuning package for the Mercedes S Class

What do you get when a German tuner hooks up with a British designer? Sounds risky, doesn't it?

What you get first is a Kahn set of wheels. Specifically, Kahn RSL 9 X 21 matte black in the front and 10.5 X 21 at the rear. Project Kahn also provides some interior design on this Mercedes S Class, with a full bespoke leather package and other unspecified cabin detailing.

Lorinser provides the rest of the restyling through added body paneling, which from the photos we can see are side air vents and subtle new skirting all around that give the design a softer, more grounded look.

"This project is without a doubt the perfect blend of British and German styling and it will certainly ensure a great deal of customer satisfaction," says Marcus Lorinser, head of German tuner Lorinser, who has partnered with Project Kahn on this Mercedes S Class.

Well, you can view the results right here and judge for yourself.

New Kahn RSL Wheel

The stunning Kahn RSL 9 X 21 matte black (front) and 10.5 X 21 (rear) wheels - tempered with a delicate red stripe; bestows an air of serene detachment toward the Mercedes S Class.

As part of a unique agreement with German tuning legends Lorinser; Project Kahn will also provide the intricate detail and full bespoke leather interior for the Mercedes S Class. The German based company will provide body styling parts.

Marcus Lorinser believes Afzal Kahn has surpassed his company's expectations by bestowing upon the Mercedes S Class; a unique blend of individuality and some truly immaculate characteristics.

He said: "We are positive about our cooperation, not least because of the combination of our good image, know-how as well as the long term experience in business of Kahn Design.

"The unique philosophy and life style expressed in the Kahn RSL wheel is truly sensational. This project is without a doubt the perfect blend of British and German styling and it will certainly ensure a great deal of customer satisfaction."

According to Afzal Kahn, the new Kahn RSL is the first in a set of wheels that will be released in the coming weeks and months ahead.

The principal British designer said: "This innovative partnership will ensure Individuals with exquisite taste will find exactly what they are looking for.

"The Kahn RSL wheel enhances the sophistication of the Mercedes S Class and embraces the vehicle's distinct style.

"However, in the coming weeks and months ahead we will be releasing numerous products that live up to my high standards and unique philosophy."

When perfect design unites with breathtaking performance: You have arrived in the world of Project Kahn and Lorinser!

It looks horrible , such a classy car , the amg 63/65 is GORGEOUS comparing to this , if i had money to afford a benz like that i would never do something like that it's shamefull to look at , i mean maybe the rims aint that bad but they have nothing to do on that silver benz , if it was even a stock black s550 with a carlsson lip , a drop , and these rims maybe it would be a different story but this is a joke plus tinted tails on a $100000 car

yeah you're right about that. i don't like lorinser style on the S class, not only the S class but on all merc cars exept the new SL which is very nice. if have money i'll go for carlsson or brabus or even kleeman also. and to be honest these rims are realy nice i like them

i reckon Kahn have swapped because they couldn't sell all the BRABUS S-Classes they ordered... i think this is just as ill-advised to be honest

I'd never want to buy a car by Project Kahn. I'd much rather have my luxury car...remain a luxury car not some "boy's" ideas of making it look classy.
