I kinda like it like that. It's the next batmobile. Just needs a hidden gatling gun and flame thrower. But in all seriousness. I'd drive it.

Looks like an $875k modern lowrider with the wheel well covers and quilted interior. All it's missing to finish it off is a driver and passenger side spotlight.

Hmmmm not worth it!

I'm just basing this on numbers 230mph???? Who's gonna go that fast? Think about this it takes Alan's car 11.06 to hit 130mph and it takes 9.9 sec for Brabus to hit 124. So the question is how long would it take it to hit 130? 10.5?? So atleast to 130mph it's not that much faster than Alan's car.

Well here it is... out of the studio and out in the real world. Still scary looking... as someone on VWvortex put it "Okay looks like the guys at Brabus finally lost it..."

LOL, I thought the same thing. Looks like the design team consisted of Brabus's engine crew, the Insight's aero team, and Darth Vader for styling pointers.

The new facelifted S Class Brabus looks much better than this E:

Funny thing is, that is a very accurate description of the '78 Grand Marquis that I had to drive at 16 (with the obvious exception of the $875k sticker).

Interesting, the S class version above doesn't have the seperate (4) Intercoolers or the new CAI, but utilizes the same 6.3 BRABUS SV12 R Biturbo 750 twelve-cylinder engine producing 750 hp / and a peak torque of 1,350 Nm appears the new E V12 gains only 50 BHP but more TQ, E V12 features a V12 6.3-liters producing 800 hp and 1420 Nm of torque

Don't you guys get it?!?!?!? Brabus is expecting something apocalyptical to happen in the very near future... think Mad Max.....you will need the rear wheel covers to deflect bullets/arrows/projectiles being shot from the post-apocalyptical mutants/barbarians. Brabus is just WAY ahead of the curve on this one...

WTF? That is the ugliest, most incoherent, sloppy piece of jumbled mess I have ever seen.

I hope you're right. At least then it would make sense.

But seriously, other than the wheel well cover, I think it's pretty sweet. I like the front end. The only problem is that it looks like the test cars that companies put out covered in duct tape. lol

It does look like they're trying to make a horribly poorly executed and cheese-ball attempt at a Batmobile. Maybe they're hoping the next Batman movie picks it up, as the W211 was first revealed in Men In Black 2 after all.

I see where Brabus is going. Everyone other cars manufacture is doing the retro style cars. Ford, Chevy, and Dodge to name a few. Brabus is just ahead of Mercedes in doing it. Check out the simularities.

The 2010 E63 AMG easily takes the cake over the TT Insight mobile...what the hell was brabus thinking, that wheel cover gives it an old man, old car, dull look. Get rid of it and it would be much better.
