It's good, but Brabus did the 640 hp engine with the same torque. I heard that they are working with new engine which will have about 700 hp and 1200 nm.

The wheels are 11" wide, and they only use a 285mm tyre... That's just breaking my balls! When I get my own car I'm going to use the widest tires that will fit the rims. I didn't think a 20" wheel would ever be considered German style (you know - 11x15" with 195/35 15), but I definitely think these are too small.

Anyway why are they using the 5 speed transmission? I thought they had already made a 6 or 7 speed, so using this one seems kinda... odd/stupid.

I think that 5 gears - it's enough for the car with so great torque. I read the magazine, where was the test of Brabus 640 hp SL. They write that it spin at 200 kph (125mph). And the acceleration of this car is limited because of driving wheels spining ( 0-100kph - 4.2seconds) So, does it need close gears?(6 or 7 speed gearbox means that gears will be closer) I think no.

Yes, the Mercedes Benz 65 AMG engine is the best perfomance engine of the year.
