have you had anyone ask you what the 'hell' brabus is yet?
I'll have to look into those!

LOL... no, but Brabus and Lorinser are fairly common here in SoCal. Once in a while I get asked what it is in one of my other Brabus cars (G63, S550, previous CLS55 and C63) but we will see about this one haha. Those who know/care about cars know what it is, and those who don't usually just don't care.

The first couple days I got this CLS it was one of the first in California (Edition 1) and I had someone ask me if it was "that new Volkswagen CC"
