Hey everybody!!!

Brabus is one of the most extreme tuners around... They have got a lot of world records for fastest sedan for example. But now, they went extreme.

New Brabus Mercedes Benz S class:

6.3 litre V12 Biturbo
730bhp
1350Nm (limited on 1100Nm I believe)
0-100 : 4sec
0-200: 10.5 sec

TOP SPEED LIMITED ON 350km/h (the car could go a lot faster, but because of the tires they stopped at 350km/h)

You find these numbers on a Porsche Carrera GT, Mercedes Benz SLR Mclaren ... But they don't get 350km/h!!

Remember, we're not talking about a low-weight sportcar, but on a very very big and heavy limousine...

You can take the whole family with you, and still beat every car...


I think it's extreme...Where will it end...

Greetings,

Postel
