This came up on my saved auto trader search.

To me it is a dogs breakfast , very expensive , nil warrenty and nil resale value.

They of course claim enhanced resale !

It is also pre registered so you are not even the first owner

In the USA they seem to love modifying cars but the U.K. seem to have a more refined pallet !

Any views ?

Yep, you’d most likely bankrupt them with your demands for compensation in the event you have issues with the car.

I don’t hate it - 820hp sounds good and it is not like the base car is all that pretty. it is not like (some) factory Porsches are exactly restrained in looks.
I would not buy it, but neither do I find it offensive.

Brabus seems to be expanding their product offering quite a lot.

I am surprised you don't think the turbo s is an attractive vehicle. I got it as I'm my view is the best looking 911 with the spoiler and side air intakes.

The Brabus stuff feels like it's for the ultimate evolution of the roadman buyer. It's a bit 820 brake fam thing is flyin u get me.

Irrelevant for me as I'm unfortunately not in the market for a 300k 911.

Having said that I did used to have a massive bonk on for that Brabus Merc CLS from years back. I think they called it the Bullet or the Rocket. Always thought that was epic.

always had a soft spot for there crazy E and S classes plus the crazy G engines (on those less so the looks, I would just get the engine mods)
