My new Brabus D6S Cabrio
Hi, thought Id share some pics of my brand new Brabus D6S cabrio
Its a standard 2012 E350 CDI Sport 125 with red flamenco leather and the following Brabus kit:-
Brabus D6S tuning - Euro VI compliant, 313HP in S mode, 509 lb-ft
Brabus Monoblock E 19" staggered wheels with 235/40/19 fronts +5mm spacers, 265/35/19 rear Continental Sport 5s
Brabus Lowering Springs-comfort
Still thinking about adding 5mm spacers on the rear too but not sure if the arches will need a bit of work first?
Other then that I quite fancy the Brabus rear spoiler and quad exhausts to finish the job, but they'll have to wait until my wallet recovers!
Really impressed so far, engine is still a bit tight but feels alot more punchy than the standard car and I seem to be averaging 40mpg without trying too hard
. Makes a change from the 16mpg I was getting from my previous car, an M5 touring
Here's a few pics sat next to its big brother, a Brabus D8 (ML420 cdi)....wifes car. His and hers Brabus or Brabi
?

Brabus D6S Cabrio, Hartge M5 Touring
thanks all for the positive comments!
Ive only had it a few days but Im really surprised how much of a head turner this car is.
I negotiated a really good deal on the base car...walked into the dealership a few days before the end of year and I guess they were struggling to meet their year-end targets. upshot was over 15% off list providing I took a group stock car and paid for it before year end.
Last couple of weeks have been spent in a dealer loned C-class coupe whilst they waited for parts delivery from Brabus in Germany

As for the acceleration, its what Id call relentless...any gear, any revs, it just throws itself at the horizon
