And still, the styling is dull AF.
In the first picture from the back, that merc looks like a Vauxhall insignia

its nice to have a unlimited autobahn in that Country.

I would hope so, but merc’s recent design make me think it will look the same as the other cars in the line bar the suvs

If you've got this kind of money and want a ridiculous looking mega-fast car, wouldn't you just buy a hyper/super car?

But I suppose if all your oil-bro buddies have Lambo's, having one of these makes you interesting, probably.

If you have that kind of money you probably have both. This for daily practical 4 door work and a 765LT would be a nice garage for me.

800 bhp and 1000 ft/lb from 4.4ltrs of V8. Completely nuts and luckily it is not a 2.5 ton 5mtr long ego cupholder wagon too. So it míght just be able o handle all that power. Looks absurd....and brilliant.

That’s the best thing I’ve read on PH for a long time. Great stuff.

Obviously not a frequent visitor then.
Seriously though and I hope the original statement was meant as a joke, but if you think it really is great then I have genuine reservations about your morality.

I find most Brabus pretty vile but I don’t mind that. Mad max comes to mind.

Brabus used to do understated; not these tasteless monstrosities for Chavs that want to display their ‘wealth’ in as ostentatious and gaudy a way as possible.

This is what Brabus is about. Brabus 7.3 V12s in E and S classes on silver wheels. Proper motors.

Sorry, I dont get the reference

Why Bradford?

[BFleming]

I was given an AMG GT 63S by Sixt recently. It was plenty quick with 640HP. The Brabus must be timewarp fast.
