Two questions :

In USA , Is brabus considered as a Carmaker (like in europe)

Can you order a brand new SL SV12S 730hp whithout any homologation issues ?

DCMETRO:

Brabus is not a carmaker in the USA, only a tuning company.

You would have to purchase an SL from Mercedes which would then be sent to Brabus for modications to SL SV12S to avoid homologation issues, and still in states like California there can be issues with governing bodies such as CARB.
