Re: Sheer Madness - Brabus SV12 S Biturbo Coupe: In Detail

I totally agree with the idea that AMG have upped their game so much now that there is little need for an additional tuner on top of the official tuner. I think what Brabus are going for now with their incaration of the CL600 is just a bit of marketing and the hope that lower spec models will sell due to the "pedigree" of their flagship model. I think there is something to be said for the years testing etc that goes into a production AMG car, so when they decide to limit the power to well below 730 break, its for a reason. By the sound of the "mods" on the Brabus CL it sounds like a completely new car especially in as far as the engine is concerned...just leaves wondering if this car is any better than the standard CLs in terms of driving experience and the like.
