Brabus Bullit - V12 C-Class


Brabus just released the Bullit, a new Mercedes C-Class fitted with the Twin-Turbo V12 Brabus heavily tunes from the SL65, CL65, S65 stock engines. And at about 350,000 Euros, it sure isnt a cheap car, especially still being automatic, a shame there arent any companies out there which do a conversion to manual for any of the high performance Mercedes (or tuner cars), although 1100Nm isnt easy to put through a transmission.

More information can be found at Brabus Bullit

Quite an insane car!

That engine is already too powerful, torquey and heavy on a CL, even worse on a C-class.

What I wonder is, are they going to put this engine in the next A/B-class?

Don't forget the Smart... Or what if they will ever want to make a motorbike?

Yep, Brabus has really gone mad.

I definately think Brabus should put a V12 in a smart and show VW that the Golf is not the most compact car a V12 can fit in. While they're at it they should ad wings and 4 turbos and then blast it off into space.

Brabus impresses me more with every passing year.

I still love the Brabus Rocket so much.

350,000 Euros for a performance car.

350,000 euros is surely worthwhile for the specs on paper.

Not so much for laptimes thou. I'd bet M3 CSL will beat on track. (wild, bias guess)

I'd like to see the comparison.
