Mercedes-Benz E-Class Convertible to appear in ‘Sex and the City 2′

sex and the city 2 mercedes benz e class coupe cabriolet 540x359 Mercedes Benz E Class Convertible to appear in Sex and the City 2
It was only a matter of time before Hollywood gave us the sequel, so this is definitely not a surprise. What might be surprising is that Mercedes-Benz has chosen the E-Class Convertible (Cabrio) as the official car this time. It seems that they are going after the right audience, as most of the former CLK convertible drivers were in fact women (no offense to any male drivers). Men, if you do get dragged in to watch the movie with your wife/girlfriend, go with it, at least you’ll enjoy looking at the latest Mercedes-Benz creation.

The movies scheduled release date is on May 28th 2010, which means that we can expect the cabrio to hit showrooms during summer of 2010.

The M156 is used in many Mercedes-Benz AMG models, such as the S63, SL63 and E63 AMG. It’s only down 45 bhp from its gullwing sibling, putting out 518 hp rather than the SLS’ 563 hp

mercedes benz michael schumacher formula 1 Official: Michael Schumacher to race for Mercedes GP in 2010
After weeks and even months of rumors and speculation, it has finally drawn to a close. Michael Schumacher will join the Mercedes GP in 2010 as Nico Rosberg’s team mate. He has signed a 1 year contract, and weill earn approximately 7 million euros while there. Schumacher recently underwent medical checks and is confident he is back to full fitness.

“Mercedes Grand Prix Petronas represents a new challenge for me both in a sporting and a personal context,” Schumacher commented. “It is a new chapter in my racing career and I am really looking forward to working with my old friend Ross Brawn and my companions from my days with the Mercedes Junior Programme.”

“I am convinced that together we will be involved in the fight for the Formula 1 World Championship next year and I am already looking forward to getting back onto the race track. For me, this partnership closes the circle. Mercedes supported me for so many years when I began my Formula 1 career and now I can hopefully give something back to the brand with the star.”

Good to have you back Schumi. What’s even better is that you are now with the right team.
