W211 Brabus 6.1 spotted
....but no pics! 
. Out of all the times I didn't have my digital, it had to be today lol.
I was right behind it. A nice clean white with an awesome kit and monoblock VI rims. It was some older lady driving it. Still had the dealer tags on. Fletcher Jones I believe. Here are the specs:

I was going to follow her to get a better look but I was late for work. Hopefully I'll get another chance to see it again

'03 W211 aka E-500
Sucks
June Gloom sucks. Especially along the coast. Sun came out last two days for 5 minutes, went away after 5 minutes, out again for 5 minutes, etc. etc. for about an hour, but only between 1600-1700 hours.
Combined with morning fog/drizzle, it is NOT a nice time to be living at the beach in So. Cal

I guess we shouldn't be complaining all that much. It's better than the East coast humidity. 100F with rain. Always muggy. Rains for 10 min...stops...starts up again...stops...so on and so forth. And when the rain does actually stop for more than a day, you notice more and more mosquitos
. You gotta carry around bug repellant all the time or hope the bugs don't like the taste of your skin :p.

. Hrmmm...wonder if there will be a market for an E600. I really love the W211 chassis. Slap a V-12TT on there!

"Slap a V12 tt on there" There is......!
from Brabus! They are now introducing a tuned version of the Mercedes 5.5 V12 in Germany as featured in the 600 models. The Brabus version will have 6.3 Liters, 640 hp and over 1000 NM of torque( I think that is something like between 600 and 700 pound feet.) This engine will be offered in the S-class, sl and e-class. The e-class with this engine has the following performance:
0-100km/h (62mph) : 4.2 sec.
0-200km/h (125mph): 12.9 sec.
top speed: 340 km/h (210 mph) governed due to tires and weight.
Price: around 300.000 Euros
