I'm sorry but as much as I will love my C63, I would NEVER pay $500k for one. I wouldn't even pay $100k for one. I think its priced and built fine just the way it is.

BTW-Thanks for the article!

It’s not about how fine the car is. It’s about owning one of the kind, the most ridiculous C-Class in the world. You buy the car not because of its quality, but to show the world that you have that kind of cash to burn. $500k to them is probably like $50 to most of us.. so, why not.

I still would not do it no matter how much money I had, its not $500k appealing to me. Actually I would show the world what an idiot I was spending $500k on a C Series.

All I could see were the pics, and it looks gorgeous!!!!!!! And this is coming from someone who isnt a fan of the C... but 500k for that? Brabus is on some really messed up drugs, the same ones that the lease planners over at Audi are on.

I do not agree that the car is over priced! for the fact that this is a complete custom built car not to forget the quality of work that has been put into it is huge, plus you get a car that is very quick daily use and extremely unique. How many Brabus Rocket did anyone see running on the roads? not one i bet but i also bet if you ran into one you would say WoooW and wouldnt race him even if you where playing around with your SLR cuz you know he would smoke you big time.
If i had the money i wouldnt think twise in buying a Bullit! just cuz it would be a hell of a ride, and well smoke 99.9% of the cars running on the local roads! and if you think this price tag is crazy go check out what Mansory 599 Ferona (how ever it spells) cost! was sold two weeks ago in UAE for $1.3M. hmmmm would rather buy the bullit and go smoke that horse!

First of all, thank you for taking the time to post this article. I find it very interesting.

Secondly, consider the CURRENCY and difficulty to read anything on this article. Despite the fact that the carbon fiber rear diffuser is hideous and the front bumper looks whack, THIS IS A FLAT BLACK V12 C Class with 720 bhp!

Pretty ill na na.

If I had the money I would buy one for sure. People who say "I wouldn't pay $500K for a c-class need to do some reading on Brabus.

This is not a c-class, it isn't really even a Mercedes anymore.

It's not flat black its plastic film

And that carbon fiber rear looks hideous? That's what good woven carbon fiber is supposed to look like, not that cheap **** you have on order from Korea

whoever pays that price for a C class tricked out is out of his mind. Who cares how fast it is, just who buys it would know how expensive and fast it is, for the rest of the people (almost 98% of the population worldwide) is simply a C class with custom paint and wheels. With that money I'll rather buy a Phamthom and a Murcielago and those would really make me stand up of the crow. Think smart people!!!!!!!!!!
