This is a very special AMG with significant RENNtech upgrades for maximum performance. The engine, a Twin-Turbocharged and inter-cooled SOHC 36 valve V12, aluminum block and heads, with port fuel injection was originally governed at 156mph. After the RENNtech upgrades, the governor was disengaged. Current top speed exceeds 200mph. Zero to 60 in 3.3 seconds. Braking, 70 to 0 mph in 160 ft. RENNtech R3 performance package upgrades include; ECU upgrade, 3pc. full carbon fiber airbox, high flow intercooler pump kit, stainless steel performance mufflers, 100% locking differential and transmission upgrade resulting in modified performance of 700 HP @5900 RPM and 900 LB-FT @2650-4500 RPM (740 HP with racing fuel). Also includes RENNtech rear wing spoiler, RENNtech toe link kit (maintains stability at high speed and ensures the vehicle tracks straight under heavy acceleration as well as properly positions the car's suspension under heavy cornering and braking loads), and RENNtech camber bushing kit (ensures proper suspension alignment to maximize performance and handling under all driving conditions). Car is owned by a fanatic driving enthusiast and has been detailed and serviced regularly. New rear ties at 54,416 (9/12); front tires at 46,530 (11/11). New ignition coil assemblies, spark plugs, fuel injectors, and voltage converter at 54,600 (9/12). Service "B" (with oil and air filters) at 55,742 (10/12). New front bumper and clear bra (11/12). The Kelly Blue Book for this car without the RENNtech upgrades is $57,326. The RENNtech upgrades should add $10k in value, but I have priced this car at $59,000 - priced to sell!

Mercedes considering GLA-based crossover coupe
Wed, 30 Apr 2014BMW opened a whole Pandora's Box when it introduced the X6 back in 2008. Sure it made little sense, sacrificing all that "utility" for a little more "sport," but it's been a solid success for BMW - especially considering the nominal expense it cost to develop the X6 on top of the X5 on which it's based. Little wonder that, while BMW has already followed up with a smaller version in the form of the X4, other automakers are starting to catch up. And that includes Mercedes-Benz.
The German automaker is preparing to launch a new MLC, based on the M-Class but with a sportier silhouette, and previewed it with the Concept Coupe SUV at the Beijing Motor Show. But that's just the start, according to the latest report from Automotive News Europe.
Mercedes is reportedly considering spinning off an entire line of crossovers more for use on the road than off it. Which may go without saying for most crossovers on the market, but considering the Geländwagen with which Mercedes got its start in SUVs, would mean an even further departure than it has undertaken already.
Brabus 800 Roadster is a power-mad aristocrat
Wed, 06 Mar 2013If we're being completely honest, we haven't exactly been in love with the aesthetics of the sixth-generation Mercedes-Benz SL-Class. It's mostly a front-end issue, with its glowering eagle-eye headlamps and upright, dinner-plate-sized Three-Pointed Star coming across to us as overwrought. That's particularly troublesome for a roadster whose history has of the most elegant designs of all time in its back catalog. Somehow, the new R231 generation's brash visuals seem more at home on this Brabus 800 Roadster to us.
That's probably because the high-dollar German tuner has turned up the wick on the SL's visuals even further, with carbon fiber bodywork, a more aggressive aero kit, matte hood scoop and complex two-finish wheels. It's all-the-way committed to its brashness, in other words - and justifiably so. Anything with 800 horsepower and 1,047 pound-feet of torque has earned the right to look however it wants, right?
Brabus started with the SL65 and its not-exactly-underpowered 6.0-liter twin-turbo V12, and went to town, fitting their own turbocharger and intercooler system, along with a less-restrictive exhaust system with driver-selectable sound levels and new engine electronics. The result is a 3.7-second 0-62 mph time, an electronically limited top whack of 217 mph... and one seriously compromised toupée.
