Brabus's ultimate C-class. V12 with 720hp!
Pegged as the ‘ultimate wolf in sheep’s clothing,’ Mercedes tuner Brabus has unveiled its new V12 Biturbo C-Class sedan that it plans to present at tomorrow’s Frankfurt Motor Show. Brabus has been transplanting high output, large displacement engines into regular sedans for the past three decades, which has led it to develop the new Bullit C-Class sedan powered by a 720hp (537kW) 6.3L V12.

This car is in a totally different league to the IS-F. This is a tuner car remember, not just a regular AMG model.

An IS-F prepped by TRD, now that could be a contender but it would be hard to top the biturbo V12.

Sounds like a modified SLR engine? Are we going to get a SLR price to with it? I hate to knock it but I don't think it's going to be able to put anywhere close to the 1100 Nm to the road.

The SLR uses a Syupercharged V8, this is the Twin turbo V12 from the CL600.

"I hate to admit it, but it looks like the IS-F just got some competition. Can't wait for the comparo!"

The standard C AMG was competition, nevermind this one.

Guys here in Dubai,there are lot of people who drive tuner cars(Mostly MB tuners like Brabus and Lorinser).
I also previosuly drove a tuner car.A 2004 Audi RS6 ABT producing 505BHP.

By dropping a Bi turbo V12 in a C Class just like they previously dropped it in S Cass,CLS,E CLass and CL Class, Brabus is just showcasing the Engine and the possiblities of the engine in MB line up.

Brabus also have another engines apart from this top of the line Bi turbo V12 engine(V6s and V8s).
So u can choose any u want.

Very nice.

LexusKing: If you are so ingnorant to think that ISF can be compared with this V12 twin Turbo monster, Then do not post again due nobody will pay atterntion to anything that you say. ..And do not tell me that I hate Lexus, Thats a great machine but you are a very bad fan that make me feel that all Lexusphiles are ignorants, Thanks God is not like that.

Amazing that Benz needs Brabus to produce an IS-F killer. I've always said that the IS-F kills the C63 AMG in performance and style. Now Brabus is trying to copy the secret Lexus formula with a direct copy of the IS-F body kit. And despite the less horsepower the IS-F will still give this thing a run for its money.

You are dreaming. Especially when you consider the fact that LEXUS HAS NEVER BUILT AN "AMG" OR BMW "M" KILLER YET.

What are you basing this "the IS-F will still give this thing a run for its money." on?

Dude, you are so much of a blind Lexus lover that you completely ignore facts and base future performance comparison results on your fan boy dreams.

Dream on kid.

Jeezes ****! That's insane! 720 hp in a C-class!!!!

Gotta love the insanity from Bottrop!

Insane isn't the word I use.

This is absurd 3700 lbs with 811 lb/ft of torque. I can't imagine any wheels smaller than the Vipers or Veyrons massive tire's even holding that much power. Hell most RUF modified Porsche's dont have that much power.

This is just a quick way for a saudi prince to kill himself and 3 other people.

Of course that wouldn't stop me from buying it if I could.

The IS-F is too boring and slow to destroy a nissan micra so how will it destroy the Brabus C? Infact how will it destroy any car?

The C-class is too small for this engine. In any event, I hope it has 4 valves per cylinder instead of the 3 that Mercedes has in its ordinary V-12. I hope it's not crammed into the engine compartment like the big old Mustang engine was back in the sixties or seventies that required the engine to be lifted out to get at the spark plugs.
