BRABUS G V12 S Biturbo launched at $500k

http://benzinsider.com/2009/02/the-w...s-from-brabus/



In the G-Class the BRABUS S V12 S displacement engine produces 700 hp (690 bhp) / 515 kW at 5,100 rpm. The turbocharged twelve-cylinder engine delivers its peak torque of 1,320 Nm (973 lb-ft) at 2,100 rpm. In the car, the peak torque is electronically limited to 1,100 Nm (811 lb-ft).

The BRABUS G V12 S Biturbo offers acceleration performance almost unimaginable for a true off-roader: Combined with a special five-speed automatic transmission and permanent four-wheel drive the exclusive SUV catapults itself from rest to 100 km/h (62 mph) in just 4.3 seconds. Top speed is limited electronically to 240 km/h (150 mph). Without the self-imposed limit the high-tech G-Class model could reach 260 km/h (163 mph).

G55, E63
1 second faster to 60 and almost the same top speed, but $380k more?! Are they serious?

No thanks, I'll keep my 09 G55 and pick up an SL65 Black Series if I want speed. Better yet, keep the G55, pick up a 2010 S63, and maybe a GT2 to play around with on weekends, and I'll still have some money left over for a nice watch

$500k ? even with global economic crisis ?

wouldn't it be cheaper to have AMG build you a G65 with a V12TT ?
