Anderson’s Black Beauty

Posted on 06 April 2011 by SACarFan

German tuning specialist Anderson has released yet another program. This time it is the Aston Martin DBS, which the tuner has given a thorough going over and a suitable name to boot – the ‘Superior Black Edition’. The Aston Martin DBS Superior Black Edition is the type of car James Bond would drive if he was more badass and less proper.

Achieving the dramatic exterior look took a simple matte black paint job and a set of bright red brake calipers, set behind the new 21-inch wheels. The interior is spruced up with carbon fibre elements, black leather and Alcantara mixed in with some red trim and cross stitching on the seats.

The power upgrade for the DBS Superior Black Edition isn’t astronomical, but it gets the job done. A standard DBS is good for 380 kW at 6 500 r/min from its hand-built V12 engine, but with the addition of a new exhaust system, Anderson has managed to increased that figure to 417 kW. No information has been released on the increased power’s effect on the performance figures, but honestly, when you look this cool, does the 0 – 100 km/h sprint time and top speed even matter?!

Audi R8 V10 Racing Edition

Posted on 09 November 2010 by Scott Hayes

Anderson Germany has unveiled a tuning program for the Audi R8 V10. Dubbed the ‘Racing Edition’, the car features carbon fibre components (front apron, rear spoiler, rear diffuser, and mirror housings) and 19-inch alloy wheels. Inside, the cabin boasts custom upholstery and carbon fibre trim.

The engine is outfitted with a new ECU, a high-flow air filter, and a sport exhaust system, which sheds 17 kgs from the standard exhaust. Thanks to these modifications, the 5.2-litre V10 produces 430 kW, instead of the standard 386 kW. While the company declined to release detailed performance figures, they stated the top speed increases by 12 km/h to 328 km/h.
