Auto:(Video) How Did Mercedes Help Police Catch The Boston Bombing Suspects

Information regarding the Boston marathon bombings continues to come in, even after the death of one suspect and the arrest of the other. By now we all know what happened. Two brothers Tamerlan and Dzhokhar Tsarnaev set the bombs off during the race. They had the city of Boston on edge for 72 hours during which point they killed a campus police officer, car jacked someone, had a shootout with police which led to a massive manhunt that ended with the arrest of the younger brother. Turns out Mercedes-Benz had a big part in helping police locate the suspects that night. They car jacked the wrong dude! His Mercedes M class was equipped with MBrace, which is a feature that can call for help in the event of an accident or track the vehicle in the event of a theft. When the man was able to escape the suspects, he ran to a gas station and called police. With his permission, they contacted Mercedes and activated the system and were able to track the suspects exact location, which is what led to them being found and a huge shootout that killed one of them. This was a big break for residents of Boston and also New York, because they had planned to drive that stolen car to the Times Square area and set off more bombs. Read more after the jump.

Auto:(Photo) Looks Like Tyga Is Spending That “Young Money”

Young money, old money, new money. Doesn’t matter what type of money you got when you are always making trips to the dealership. They gonna take any kind of money you got. Tyga looks like is he living good off his work if you go by his Instagram pictures. He posted this pic recently showing his driveway full of luxury whips. His mini-fleet consists of a Mercedes SLS AMG, Merdeces G-wagon, Rolls Royce Ghost, and the same Lamborghini Aventador that he crashed a few months back looks good as new. Does he own all these cars? Not necessarily, they could be leased, they could even belong to a friend. But in an industry where perception is sometimes reality, if it looks like your doing big things, chances are people will believe in it. Check out the pic after the jump.


Auto:(Video) Why?? New Diehard Movie Wrecked $11 Million Worth Of Cars For Chase Scene

Whyyyyyy did they have to do this? So disrespectful! They could of called me and I would of taken a Mercedes off their hands for free. The new Diehard movie ” A Good Day To Diehard ” wrecked 132 cars in the main chase scene, with a price tag of $11 million for those cars wrecked. It would of cost even more if Mercedes didn’t donate a bunch of G-wagon’s to the scene for free. They even crushed a new Lamborghini, smh! So basically a 5 minute scene cost $11 million just in the cars that were damaged. That means the pricetag on this movie overall was skyhigh. Check the scene in question after the jump and see if you can pick out how many luxury cars were destroyed. I am still mad though, lol.
