Any MB that Brabus touches ... turns out to be a beautiful piece of work. Not to mention the high price though.

Wow, dunno if I'd want to spend the 84 g's it would take to buy one but you can't argue with the 4.4sec 0-60!

"Gnarly" indeed.

juni, get your 80's jargon right. It's gnarly, not knarly

Nice car, but I don't really like the way the back end looks.

The BRABUS North America Inc. headquarters is blocks from my work. I LOVE driving by and seeing the cars. "How much is that puppy in the window?" 84K? No thanks... looks good, though.

too ugly for my tastes...

if it was in a different chassis then I'd love it. I just can't stand the new body style.I'd still take it though, if it was free
