Brabus 850 6.0 Biturbo
The Brabus 850 6.0 Biturbo is the spiritual successor to the legendary Brabus 800 E V12. It features an uprated V8 enigine, now 5.9 litres rather than the serial 5.5 litres. To acheive this, Brabus uses precision-balanced billet crankshaft with a stroke of 96 mm (3.78) instead of the standard 90.5 millimeters (3.56 in.) in concert with special forged billet piston rods. The engine also receives new turbochargers with larger compressor units and a special manifold. A high-performance exhaust system and an ECU optimisation are both included in the package
Power is now 850 hp with torque limited to 1,150 Nm. The power is routed through a strengthened 7-speed sports transmission with rear-wheel drive and 4MATIC version both available. With the rear wheel drive version the sprint to 100 km/h is acheived in just 3.7 seconds whilst the 4MATIC version reaches that figure in a staggering 3.1 seconds. Brabus VMax systems limit the Brabus 850 6.0 Biturbo to speeds between 300 km/h (186 mph) and more than 350 km/h (217 mph).
In terms of visual and aerodynamic updates, the front spoiler lip attaches to the underside of the production bumper of the E 63 AMG with minimal fuss, newly styled design elements for the front fenders and a new rear spoiler lip. All parts are crafted from carbon fibre.

I thought those would catch on for sure.Trending Topics

The other thing to note is it's not the displacement thats the limiting factor here, its the trans which makes brabus put a cap on torque output. That figure is easily hit and suprassed by both ams and weistec if not others.

Hold on.. so you're suggesting that there is, in fact, a replacement for displacement? 6.0L vs. 5.5L is not insignificant, especially considering the increased stroke. This "stroker" creates almost enough torque to alter the Earth's rotation, and the fact that it's limited from a maximum 1400+ NM to a 'mere' 1,150NM means that you have Veyron-esque grunt through all four wheels across the entire rev band. Brabus DOES upgrade the transmission and the drivetrain to cope with twisting forces other tuners couldn't ever dream of producing.
This thing is built to be a supercar, not a tuned car. We mortals will have to stick with conventional tuners because these amazing creations are prohibitively expensive and exceedingly limited.

Cheers to that, couldn't have been better put. I just wanted to point out, and possibly you can correct me if I am wrong, that on the Brabus website (German one) there are posted prices in Euros of the available cars for sale by Brabus. They show export prices in Euros and this Brabus E 850 is said to be around 275,000 Euros. For some reason also they show the E V12 still available for sale by them (which I thought only 10 were produced) at 295,000 Euros. As shocked as I was to see that, I wanted to come here to verify if this is true and maybe somebody here knows. Is the Brabus E 850 for sale upon customer request? Is the Brabus E V12 also available to those who request it?

Your right most people don't purchase these cars but that's what makes them so rare and unique. I think the fact that you can get more power from this Brabus sedan than most supercars that are available on the market or in existence, is what is most appealing to the customer.
