Cls600?!
I thought you guys would be most knowledgeable about this. I was driving through a parking lot at a local restaurant and I stopped because a car caught my eye. It was badged "CLS600". It this car being made? Is it possible that it was custom made?

SEPT 2005 CLS 320CDI,
The following modified models I know are available:-
CLS
BRABUS 5.8 increased-capacity engine. 400 hp / 294 kW, 579 Nm.
BRABUS 6.1 increased-capacity engine. 426 hp / 313 kW, 621 Nm.
BRABUS 6.1 S increased-capacity engine. 445 hp / 327 kW, 635 Nm.
I see today that a 6.3 AMG ML is Launched using new 6.3 V8, 510hp / 375kw, 630Nm, maybe this will find a home in the CLS in the future.......

I can't see why people do that. When I was living in Japan, people would remove the badges to hide what they had.
Is it only in America that we do stuff like this?
