BRABUS SV12 S Biturbo engine
720 horses
974 lb-ft of torque
0-62 in 3.9 seconds
top speed of 224 mph
?348,000

dont like the looks too much. :thumbsdown:
Dont like the intee too much leather :thumbsdown:
needs more CF
and why it only has 19" wheels and not 20"
The only thing I like is the 720 horses, I just wish some 1 will mod the M5 to get 1000 horses or put a Biturbo in it. That will be Fun

looks alright to me, except the front doesnt really "flow" in my opinion and neither does that rear diffuser. some serious power though...

That thing's a beast! I do agree that bigger wheels would better compliment the styling.

Holy crap that thing is insane. I love it.

My guess about it not having 20's is it would slow it down. They put all that work into making it so fast, why kill it with bigger wheels. I can't see them rolling to the track with big 20's on it.

I think with all that power it can put 22" on if it fits

That car is quite INSANE, however how many do we REALLY think there will be on the roads, very few in fact none on the UK roads, i havnt seen one Brabus yet, i know of people that have some, like extreme richers, but never seen one in my 11 years of driving.

Maybe in the US there will be a few, the chances of seeing one with your M5?

Just stay well back,

Nice brabus, but the price tag is quite revolting to the Normal man.

DREAMS OF A BRABUS C CLASS

Have to sell your home to buy such a thing.

With such a powerful and expensive engine ($450,000 UDS) it deserves a more dramatic body. At the end of the day its still a MBZ. Id rather buy an F430 and murcielago instead of one Brabus . ( did I convert my currency right?)

If someone would to actually buy this car, wouldn't you think they have a couple Ferrari's sit'in the the garage already. I don't think it would be a question of one or the other.
