So this is identical to the Brabus S V12 BiTurbo SL that they made a few years ago?

It's a different engine from the SL, the sl wasnt the new 6.3 that AMG is hand-building (yea ok my ***).

haha in that Top Gear episode Clarkson definitely used all the power in the SL...If you could affored to buy new tires everyday, then this hp is for u!

I think the kit looks appropriate for the kind of power it's putting out.

OMFG so much power for a small car, plus for the price why wouldnt someone just get like a Porsche GT2 or do they really want something that can carry 4-5 people

i always wondered how they could fit that monstrous engine under the hood even in the C63 AMG and now this beast. Why does lexus have to make that ugly hood for the 5.0 l engine to fit the IS-F? I still don't like the new C-Class interior thou.
