bb - Rainer Buchmann - Innovation - Design - Emotion

Car modifier b+b Auto, founded 1973 in Frankfurt by Rainer Buchmann and his brother Dieter, caused a stir in the 1980's European and international car scene by their technical innovations as well as their spectacular design. Initially focussed on Porsche cars b+b became established through their Porsche Turbo Targa with prismatic colours varnish presented at the Polaroid stand on Fotokina 1976 Cologne.
At IAA Frankfurt 1979 they launched b+b CW 311, a contemporary modification of the legendary Mercedes 300 SL. Mercedes-Benz was so enthusiastic about the car that they allowed Buchmann to continue using the Mercedes star as a brand logo.
During the 1980s, b+b was one of the most successful modifiers of production cars into individual luxury vehicles for those who could afford it - customers from the Arab world as well as celebrities from the Jet-Set...

However Buchmann's real passion belonged to the area of electronic innovations, and the money he earned with his tuning activities was invested into research in this field. He was the first to think about centralised door locking by means of remote control as well as park distance control and he invented the first car computers. In 1983 his multi-function steering wheel was protected by patent.

This comprehensive book, produced in close cooperation with Merck Group, one of the world's leading chemical companies for whom Buchmann popularized a new and special kind of bright enamel varnish, presents the complete history of Rainer Buchmann's technical and entrepreneurial achievements.

Mercedes-AMG GT - A Star is Born

The Mercedes-AMG GT is not just any AMG. As the Porsche 911 competitor and successor of the famous gullwing SLS it is going to be the brand's new showpiece. This special meaning of the car has to be captured in an illustrated book that goes beyond conveying the driving experience and beauty of the Mercedes-AMG GT.

Like the car, the book has to be the brand's showpiece. Therefore it covers all the milestones of AMG history that belong to the brand's heritage - right up to the GT. The AMG GT was officially presented in early October 2014 at the Paris Motor Show.

AMG - Les Mercedes hautes performances (3ème édition)

"A" comme Aufrecht, "M" comme Melcher, "G" comme... Grossaspach. Derrière ces trois lettres se cachent Hans-Werner Aufrecht et Erhard Melcher, le G symbolisant la ville d'origine du premier cité.
En 1967, ces pionniers créent AMG, une officine - la première - dédiée aux préparations de moteurs et à la personnalisation sur base Mercedes. Un nouveau concept est né : hautes performances, exclusivité, le tout marié à la qualité et au confort légendaires de la marque à l'étoile.

Réputé pour ses transformations routières et sportives, AMG finit, au bout de vingt ans, par attirer l'attention de son voisin de Stuttgart. La quasi-totalité de la vaste gamme.

Mercedes a depuis reçu la "piqûre" AMG. Ce livre, préfacé par Jacques Laffite, raconte en détail cette success story. Des 300 SEL 6.3 de 320 ch des sixties à la toute nouvelle GT et aux derniers modèles frappés d'un "45", "55" ou d'un "63 AMG", en passant par les versions compétition, les 300 E "Hammer" et les transformations spéciales, toutes les époques sont revisitées.
