Description: Set to be introduced at the Geneva Motor Show, this is the most powerful C-Class in the world. Dubbed the Brabus Bullit Coupe, the car is based on the standard C-Class Coupe but under the hood lies th...Add Comments12
Ducati ManningMar 06, 2012 That's not entirely true Anthony. Diesel pickup frames can survive more than 2000 ft lbs of torque without modification.
Shiv ShuklaMar 06, 2012 EPA Est. Highway: 0.5 MPG, City: Unfeasible, Track: PRICELESS enjoyment, around half the track at least, 0.1MPG @ Neutral. Hehehe
Legend-wait for it....DARY
Anthony Villa-GarciaMar 05, 2012 @Nick, the frame itself can only handle so much, a new frame would essentialy make them build a whole car. As for the tranny, there are reasons why the venom, ssc, veyron, are over a million dollar. The parts are custom built.
Nick PietropaoloMar 05, 2012 how come American brands can put down that much torque without much upgrades to the trans such as a upgraded torque converter and not much else.???? r their trannys really not that strong.?? and the American cars can put it to the ground also.just take a look at some of the Hennessy tuned vehicles like the 1,000 HP camaro package u can get...
Brandon LidyMar 05, 2012 Yeah that much torque in such a small car would be killer
Jason BrownMar 05, 2012 Brad, reduction of torque can be done many ways, in this case through the ECU. Im assuming reducing fuel input in one or more cylinders. You can always web search it for exact details.
Brad HensonMar 04, 2012 I'm curious, how do they limit the torque output?
Carlton SalmonMar 04, 2012 It's easy to say build a stronger transmission which of course is entirely feasible but that wouldn't make putting 1047lb-ft through the tyres any easier - with that much torque it would simply spin in every gear. Gorgeous car though - I'm a fan.
Nick BenzMar 04, 2012 @knox you couldnt have said it any better haha
Carlton SalmonMar 04, 2012 1047lb-ft of torque is enough to kick-start a small planet!
Knox FerraroMar 04, 2012 BUILD A STRONGER TRANSMISSION.
Igor NatsioksMar 04, 2012 That's enough torque for the world to turn!!!
Description: As a consequence, it can sprint from 0-62mph in just 3.7 seconds. Putting that in perspective, that's a massive half-a-second quicker than the 6.2-liter V8 C63 AMG Black Series. It can also shift...Add Comments27
Greg LewisMar 05, 2012 I think the big three have a happy place right now for the average joe, 400-500hp. im content with my 305 ponies
Greg LewisMar 05, 2012 Yeah, at some point that much hp is stupid. Most people who can afford this car can't handle the power. I myself couldnt...
Peter FasuloMar 05, 2012 Ford fan obviously is a redneck who doesn't know a thing about cars or an amazing amg engine and look at that car.. It beautiful
Brandon LidyMar 05, 2012 Does it matter what badge is on it? They said 230 which is plenty for me regardless of the brand or make
Payne Hodges WilsonMar 05, 2012 Ford fan that would be the point. The fun of this car is trying to control the power. Just because it doesn't have a stupid ford badge on it doesn't make it pointless.
Jason BrownMar 05, 2012 The C-AMG 6.3 is a beast to handle and drive on it's own especially with the traction control off. I can't imagine how difficult it would be to handle this trying to accelerate less than 4 sec. To 100km/h.
Dan RatherMar 05, 2012 Something different there's more to cars than 0-60 times. Not many cars have this much power or torque I'm sure this thing is a rush to drive.
Dan RatherMar 05, 2012 @ ford fan also you could get a stock GTR and destroy a ford gt what's your point comparing a ford gt to this is like comparing apples to oranges. People who buy this are after s
Dan RatherMar 05, 2012 @ ford fan a c63 isn't a $40k car
Ty PiperMar 05, 2012 It's for multi millionaires who just want a tire burner... Id get one if I had millions to spend on cars
Jackson MichaelMar 04, 2012 Maybe the people buying this don't want a Ford.
Andrew McNealMar 04, 2012 I like it, looks cool and not many cars can hit 230 mph. Not sure if I'd pay 600 grand for it though, I could buy two or three cars with similar performance for that price.
Timothy HookerMar 04, 2012 Put a BMW badge on it and it might be worth that....JS
Jackson MichaelMar 04, 2012 I'd definitely pay that much for it
Hendrik ReimerMar 04, 2012 Ppl don't get the point of such a thing. It's not to buy yourself the best performance car for the least money possible. It's about exclusivity! If I buy one of these, I already own tons of other cars (at least I think so :)
Anthony SmithMar 04, 2012 For that much u could buy a c class and build it how I want
Anthony SmithMar 04, 2012 For that much I could buy and design
Ben LardnerMar 04, 2012 Insanly crazy for merc, But I would get it.
Domi BsaibesMar 04, 2012 Brabus>any other tuning firm
Johnny FrancisMar 04, 2012 This is way over the top. But I guess it's still awesome haha.
Otnay NatMar 04, 2012 To each their own I guess. I would buy a supercar and twin turbo it .. Ie lp700, Still have some extra money, more head turns and more ear to ear smile riding around town
John SerelyMar 04, 2012 @hendrik lol your totally right
Michael DouglasMar 04, 2012 Kinda expensive. For that money i could buy a v12 s class and make it go faster while getting me a massage and maybe if there is enough cash after have a blowjob machine
Trent GriffinMar 04, 2012 $600k for performance I could get for 1/3 the price 1/10 the price? I pass
Hendrik ReimerMar 04, 2012 A guy which would post a picture with his nude 'body' is a COLOSSAL IDIOT...
Igor NatsioksMar 04, 2012 Lol you are one for stating that comment. It's one of the shortest of the Mercedes, and quite agile. Lighter then it's bigger brothers. And now with amazing performance. What more do you need?. 4 doors? Reclining seats? D
Shiv ShuklaMar 06, 2012 Proper Merc? Lol, like the cute shiny ones that attract females? Hell no it isn't! This one attracts motor junkie chics that know how to lube a crankshaft =)
Ty PiperMar 05, 2012 What the hell is with the chunky ass front clip and nothing to match it in the rear? Too much contrast I think....
Payne Hodges WilsonMar 04, 2012 I would rather have this over any Bugatti just because it's not way over the top flashy. It has a few touches here and there to indicate its not just a normal c class but still could fly under the radar
Jackson MichaelMar 04, 2012 When you buy a Bugatti, everybody knows you're made. Brabus isn't as well known.
Brandon WhybrewMar 04, 2012 let Jeremy Clarkson drive this and he will have the tires gone in 3 minutes
Henz HerreroMar 04, 2012 Visit brabus website and ull think twice.. It might not be on par with bugatti but its pretty damn close..
Jackson MichaelMar 04, 2012 Owning a Brabus is nothing like owning a Bugatti, price and performance wise
Matt PiccoloMar 04, 2012 That's sweet!!!! But not 600k sweet
Sam C-hMar 04, 2012 @Danyaal yer but this will destroy a 458 and a Gallardo.
Danyaal FarooqMar 04, 2012 I would rather by a 458 and a gallardo
JGL ScuderiaMar 04, 2012 looks like a proper brabus
Sam C-hMar 04, 2012 This with the Prior Design body kit they showed yesterday would be PERFECT!
Henz HerreroMar 04, 2012 Omg this thing is sooo HOTTTT!! Branus is super expensive but they know how to tune cars.. If only i have that kind of money, still dreaming of the brabus GLK..
Zachary MaurerMar 04, 2012 GET RID OF THE GIGANTIC B WHERE THE MERCEDES LOGO IS SUPPOST TO BE!!!!!!!!!
Dan RatherMar 05, 2012 Seeing as though a cts v has a curb weight of 3600 and the c63 before it has this engine swap weighs 3900 I don't think the cadillac is the fat one. For the record I think the bullit is awesome and so is the c63 I just think your comment was ignorant
Ty PiperMar 05, 2012 Ohhhh can we guess who here bases all opinions that they have on cars off of the british top gear?
Emilio Luelmo'Mar 04, 2012 Don't compare a fat American car with a beautiful German piece of art.
Kan WesMar 04, 2012 Those wheels look too much like the cts v.
Phillip FitchewMar 05, 2012 @ Jackson: More like
Brabus = Speed
M = Overall enhanced performance
Phillip FitchewMar 05, 2012 @Al: The point isn't to make an M3 killer. Brabus makes rockets.
Henz HerreroMar 05, 2012 You guys must not have seen their brabus GLK.. Once a fastest suv or still is, not sure if the tuned cayenne is the fastest but the GLK is a fking beast
Daniel C CoțaMar 05, 2012 The brabus B looks like it was designed in ms word
Dan RatherMar 05, 2012 I kinda wish they kept the Mercedes emblem it doesn't flow well without it
Ty PiperMar 05, 2012 Why can't people realize that brabus makes no claims to good track times? I bet this thing will empty it's gas tank and eat it's tires faster than an m3 and IMO that's just as bad ass as a good lap time
Josiah Thomas ClementsMar 04, 2012 The c coupe AMG is better than the M3 IMO. It just looks mean, which is a good thing.
Max MüllerMar 04, 2012 Read the text: the transmission isn't strong enough for more torque! And it weights very much more than a m3!
Al TunguponMar 04, 2012 All Brabus does is incorporate all that power and torque for brochure purposes. You just can't put them into good use. At 800 hp, it should have a much faster 0-62 time. A 500 hp car with a good chassis can manage the feat in about the same time. Needless to say, the launch is messy and by the time you complete your first lap, the tires need to be changed already.
It's certainly no way of making...
