I'm guessing with that much torque it might have grip issues :laugh:

and an even more impressive peak torque of 1,420 Nm (1,047 lb-ft), available already at a low 2,100 rpm.   :surprised: :rolleye:

i love it, but its plain ridiculous. the last one they had on top gear wasn't that fast around the track as the chassis and tyres couldn't handle that torque.  and this one has even more torque.   you would think brabus would look into a 4wd conversion to get that sort of output down.  then it would be a fast car

Wonder if you can turn off that electronic limiter to get ALL the torque  :party: :party: :party:

Would be a bit of a hand full to get the power down in the first 6 gears but once your in 7th it would flyyyyyyyyyyyyyyy   :signLOL: :signLOL:

Looks  :drool:



Remove that stupid raised bit on the bonnet though or at least re-design it.

is it boring to say im not impressed really?  :popcornsoda:

not one for hugely powerful mercs, not even a fan of the c63 to be honest!!

i hate the mentality "shuv a fook off engine in it and it will spank anything attitude"

nahh mate, not for me! haha!
