In the 1970, Carrera offered 1:24, 1:32 and 1:60 scales for slot cars, and the slot-free "Servo" systems which allowed cars to switch lanes, guided by the guard rails on the outside. Due to the many systems offered, and fewer customers (Generation), Neuhierl had to sell his company in 1985, and took his own life. The new owners sold rather cheap products.

2011 Carlsson CK63 RS based on Mercedes-Benz CLS 63 AMG


The Mercedes Benz CLS has a strange vibe into it. With its swooping shape, it has managed to combine the defining characteristics of a sedan and a coupe all at the same time. AMG, Mercedes Benz’s tuning arm, has created the CLS63 AMG mainly to satisfy those people that have an incessant craving for speed. But still, Carlsson has managed to bring out something more out of the already monstrous CLS63 with the 2011 Carlsson CK63 RS.

Power & Performance

A comprehensive aerodynamic package has been equipped with Carlsson in order to further accentuate the attractive lines of the CLS and also to improve its aerodynamic efficiency. A more aggressive presence is done using a front spoiler lip and black accents on the grille inserts. Additional aerodynamic equipment includes a discreetly shaped rear spoiler and a rear diffuser. This equips the car in preparation for its more powerful engine. The same 6.3 liter Mercedes Benz engine is upgraded with 2 turbochargers to increase output to 649 horsepower and 900 Nm of torque.

Body & Interior

Forged wheels are installed in this car, allowing for weight savings of up to 40 percent compared to a same sized wheel. However, the interior leaves nothing to chance, with the finest materials such as wood, leather, and Alcantara combining to create a homey experience. Mercedes Benz’s elite construction combined with Carlsson’s superb attention to detail make the interior as spectacular as the car’s style and performance.
Among super sedans, the Carlsson CK63 RS has only few peers. Combining stylish swagger, a lovingly constructed cockpit, and earthshaking performance, it is a beast in a CLS’s clothing.
