    Talking Brabus V12 Bi-turbo (DROOL)

    Taken from another site..

    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!!!

    Nice car!

    but you'd think that they could put some nicer lettering on the engine cowl for $200K US...

    Arial font "6.3 biturbo" printed with my inject printer on to a sticker! hahhaha

    Can't imagine how much faster that would be, I've rode in an SL55, and thought that was crazy fast, I'd be scared to open that thing up on a public road.

    One thing though what kind of transmission is that? It looks kinda automatic-ish, does it come in stick. Like real stick not with a clutch?

    edit: with a clutch sorry

    Only availible in auto. The button on the top of it, starts the car, providing you have the little "card" with you.

    that car is out of this world!! holy Sh$t. Ive also been in a SL55AMG and i can't imagine adding another 100hp and 150ft/lbs. I think the 630hp is right... but rember this engine is a trq monster.... 715-730ft/lbs or so. Must be nice to be a millionare. And the White carbon fibre is very different. I didn't even know there was such a thing
