Looking to buy 7.3 Brabus

Does anyone know where I can buy that car? how much does it cost to upgrade? I want to stay with the w140 but I don't want to spend over 120,000 on the upgrade. If its more I'm going to go with cl600

well if you're looking to update the car, new engine from brabus along with exhuast and int from them, well the brabus g65 has the v12 bi turbo in it along with there own int and exhuast and that was 200k, brabus is going to be costly, well so would have a cl600 engine in there as well, but brabus is going to be the only people who will do the swap, if you are not getting their body kit a biturbo v12 and an exhaust should not be more than 120k, I don't know for sure but post some pics if you get that done, my god that would be so sweet

There is two 7.3 V12 engine from Brabus: normal and S version. Normal produces 530 HP and S 582 HP. Both can be mounted on a W140 and R129. The price must be around 50000-60000$ for the engine upgrade + fitting. Call Brabus to know where to get your engine upgraded.

The 7.3S engine is much better (more revvy and sportier) IMHO than the actual 5.5 V12 biturbo, if you can live with the dated look of the W140.

whao whao whao that old school look is still very nice, well imo, don't get me wrong the round lights and other stuff are nice but the old school look is very nice, and the biturbo v12 will get you much more whp don't quote me on this but i think it was something over 600whp 608 612 not too sure but something like that, and they should be same price right?

I love the "out dated look" No car fits me better then my benz. The only thing I don't like about updating my car is, I will still have my 115,000 mile internals. If its 50-60k I'll be sending you pics in the next month or so.

I'm starting to update my car with new car parts. I need to know prices for a new oil gasket, motor mounts , rear right wheel stabilzer , steering fluid pipes or what ever they are called.
