Brabus GLK V12 claims title of ‘World’s fastest street-legal SUV’

Insane German tuner Brabus stuffed their 750 HP 6.3-liter Biturbo V12 into a GLK and raced it around the Nardo high-speed track. The result? At 200.3 MP Brabus GLK V12, making it the fastest street-legal SUV in the world.

While I love where Brabus is going with their latest mods perfomance wise. I can't help but think they hired two 12 year old boys to design these things. They used to have understated, stealth like treatment for their cars, I wish they would go back to those designs.
