Who owns this Brabus ML?

Also posted in the AMG section. Just saw this while we were at Fashion Island in Newport Beach yesterday. Not familiar with the ML AMG lineup, but noticed that it had AMG seats so I am assuming it is a ML63. Hot vehicle. If the owner is on this board, what mods are done other than cosmetic ones?

I'm probably going against the grain, but I'm not feelin it... Front wheel arches are too exagerated, I don't care for the rocker panels plus just too many other bumps and bolt ons. The wheels are OK but not nearly as good as the 2009 OEM wheels.

Looks too Frankensteinish...

That car actually did start life as a Regular ML63. It was built by Brabus NA themselves and sold as a fully built car from Fletcher-Jones MB.

It includes the full Brabus WIDESTAR package consisting of:
-front bumper WIDESTAR incl. a set of foglights and highbeams
-rear bumper WIDESTAR with integrated illumination
-side skirts WIDESTAR with integrated illumination
-fender flares incl. door add-ons (40mm Wider)
-23" Brabus E Wheels
-Brabus ML63 Sport Exhaust

The Aero Kit itself without the wheels or installation Retails for $24,000.

Here is the car before it was sold in the showroom...


If anyone is interested in building a WIDESTAR, or are interested in any other Brabus Producing, please feel free to contact me for Special MBWORLD pricing

They must have just bought it. When I snapped the pics, it did not have plates (temp tags) and still had the Fletcher Jones lic frames.

It looks like, I dunno, 1998ish Japanese.
I don't think MB could pay me 24K to drive it.
It's like a victim of pimp my ride or something.
I feel bad for it.
