Well, here it is. . . .as if the twin turbo V12 mercedes wasn't fast enough. . .a guy in my area sent his car to Brabus.
I don't know that much about the car, but my friend who works at the dealership was telling me a little bit about it. First, the car costs over 100 grand before you even send it to brabus. Then its another 100 grand for the modifacations. But you get a really nice car once its done. And thats an understatement.
They put in a new motor (still a turbo V12) new brakes, suspension, and much more. I really don't know all of the details. But the car is supposed to have at least 640hp, but I heard its more.
The owner said 0-60mph in 3.1 sec. The car is governed at 212mph. The car will go faster, but the tires are the limiting factor.
They said the serial number on the car is 0001. So this should be the first one in the country. The guy who owns it used to race professionally and said its the fastest car he has ever driven.
This car is beautiful. . . the interior has white carbon fiber inserts, its absolutely beautiful. And get this. . . .the front brakes are 12 piston!!!
