MB 4 door coupe CLS is the base for the Rocket.

6.3L 12 cylinder Biturbo engine with 730 HP.

1320 Nm, theoreticly, but it has a limiter at 1100 Nm.



0-100 Km/h = 4 seconds
0-200 Km/h = 10 seconds
0-300 Km/h = 29.5 seconds

350 Km/h top speed (speed limiter)

You can get better than that for under $8K. You'll only get two wheels tho.

Cheaper still: jump off your roof.

Ugly Ugly car. Did I mention UGLY?

NOPE!




It's more likely:

REAL GOD DAMN FREAKIN' BUTT UGLY!


And on top of it it's a MB.




But it's fast...

Actually I've seen it myself at the IAA, and it wasn't as bad IRL. But it was still BUT UGLY.
