wikid, aren't we lucky the Aussie government can't afford shit like this. . And that the police have rules to stop a chase after it reaches a certain speed...

[allblitz]

Something like that would entice people to get into a police chase

Well they can, just means doubling speeding fines...

225mph! outrunning it is not on your list of options

[interkool]

anyone got specs on this thing ?

what the hell is it?

looks like an aston or something like that

Its a merc CLS, done by Brabus. If its the super fancy pants on its the Brabus rocket. Which is the fastest 4 door in the world clocked at 365kmh or something, its speed limited to 350kmh tho... Its got the amg twin turbo v12, but stroked out, and a few other things. I can not express how much I want one of these cars. Then you can go in to the interior and the options brabus put in.

headlights are little weird but the whole proportion looks mean, definitely one of the better looking mercedes at the moment.

when i first saw the car on top gear i thought it was nice but a little odd looking. looks quite amazing in real life though. the normal 06 cls that is.

[(B1) MR_fanny]

i absolutely love this shape. great lines

[VB-]

the little lights on top are a little homo.... like seeing a massive roid muncher with the deminished.... well yeah, you know what i mean...

take the lights off the top and integrate em somewhere else. cant be very good for aerodynamics at 225mph?

[scathing]

The front of the CLS is....OK.

What I'd like to know is how the Australian motoring press, who panned the AU Falcon for being hideously ugly and droop (it was) washes the taste of 3 pointed shit from their mouths after the felching they give the CLS about how good it looks....considering the cars look almost the same from the back.

Thanks for mentioning felching while I'm checking the forum over breakfast. God I love SAU.

Not a bad looking wagon that Brabus. Not the flashest looking thing on the road though.

Wonder what the top speed would be without the roof lights. They add about 20% to the frontal area and would have to bump the Cd well over 0.4, from a starting point of probably 0.3.

That's a rough drag increase of at least 60%, probably more.
