Saw a black/black SL55 K8 Brabus car on I-5 in the LA area

Hey wassup everyone.

I was on I-5 driving through(unfortunately) the world series traffic on my way to disneyland when I saw the SICKEST new SL I've ever seen.

I've seen about 15 SL500s around and 2 sl55s but NEVER one like this.

The one I saw had 20 inch Brabus 6 spoke rims, newer more aggressive body panels on the car, and brabus badging all over it.

IF it's the K8 version of this car..it must have 550 plus horses.
That car was GORGEOUS.

I saw a new CL55 and CL600 drive on the same highway and this SL55 kompressor made those cars look like VERY FAT cousins.

Whoever owns that car is one lucky person!

Enjoy

Did it say SL55 on it too?

I know someone with a heavily modded blk/blk SL500 with a supercharger, body kit, etc.
I don't think they have Brabus badging on it though.

1M, F550M, F550B, F40, S600, 365GTC, DBSx2, etc.
So the brabus body kits looked really good?

That's good to hear. I *really* like their front spoiler and wheels, not sure about the side / rear panels. It all depends, I guess.

Nice find!
