MUNICH — When the German television network ProSieben wanted special transportation for the 2007 Academy Awards ceremony in Hollywood, it turned to local tuner Geiger Cars, which specializes in crafting special high-performance editions of big Detroit vehicles.
So Geiger went to work on a Cadillac Escalade ESV. First, Geiger fitted a stainless-steel high-performance exhaust system, which boosted output to 423 horsepower. Then it added oversize 24-inch chrome wheels shod with Z-rated Pirelli Scorpion tires. Ride height was lowered by 3.9 inches.
Geiger painted the exterior in an exclusive ProSieben Star Force scheme and installed a chrome grille. Atop the hood is an Oscarlike ornament, said to be modeled after ProSieben TV hostess Annemarie Warnkross. A giant folding sunroof was installed over the rear seats.
Inside, the Star Force Escalade features red and black leather seats, a rear partition with retractable glass, a Toshiba LCD projector and a custom audio system with a 1,000-watt amplifier.
