900+ whp hmmm..
I've seen 900 + whp cars in action before, this 218 is awsumm & sounds phenominal but.. 900+ whp? Kinda doubtful (it would take full turbo upgrade package etc which nets 700+ whp + a 150-200 shot of nitrous to get there) Also in several rolling shots at 25-50+ mph when he obviously nails throttle the tires should break loose everywhere, but they don't:nix:
Still a great looking/sounding rig:y |
Yeah, I've seen those vids/that car. I too was a bit suspicious of the 900whp claim, with that much power he'd surely be all over the road.
|
basically.... for youtube hits. I've seen 700 wheel horsepower with nearly 1000 torque but not without nitrous *AND* turbo upgrades....
|
Based on that video...I second the BS call.
|
....but don't we all have that much horsepower on the internet? :nix:
|
Yeah guys.. I'm betting this car doesn't even have 900 @ the Crank, it doesn't look any different in acceleration vs tune only cls63tt's.. Barring sound, prolly has down pipes, no cats no muffs & ecu/tcu.. Still very sick ride don't get me wrong just funny listing it has that much power, as the video was obviously done by a friend of driver/owner he knows it's not 900 anything..
|
I wanna race it
|
It sounds incredible though :eek: I wanna see 1000whp CLS/E 4matic monsters. I'm pretty sure somebody will get that much power and with the new 4matic system I can't imagine how fast it would be. Can't wait for mid 9s 4 door daily driven sedans :bow:

Get an Evo, spend ~$15K+ in mods, and you'll be happy....

I know that route all too well having grown up in SOCAL in the 40's-50's era. Last time was my annual 5 AM XMAS run in my 12 cylinder in 1999. Nothing close to the bi-turbo hp (the C4 is about 350 fwhp), but the sound of a V12 with 6 Weber carburetors at full song in the Malibu tunnel has no rival and will not pass this way ever again.
|
seems pretty tame, in sound and action for that claimed HP

I was thinking a little more class and luxury. An evo is basically a go kart. Plus it's not exactly reliable and the powerband would be horrible.
Power band wise - depending on what you plan on doing with the car, and proper turbo selection, you can have a great power band (not just peak numbers). |
Anyone can roast tires first gear with 900rwhp + he should be doing that in 2nd 3rd and 4th with those tires prob even 5th

Hell, a properly modded E55 will break the tires loose at the speeds he was playing. Definitely not seeing a 900whp car here.

It's definitely not 900whp let alone 900+whp. It's definitely a beast and sounds like a storm and goes like hell. I think 900whp in a rear wheel drive car would be fun for sure but not really that useful unless you have DR on a properly prepped track. If it was a 4matic though it would be really interesting to see what it can do.

Hell Hath No Fury like a 900-Horsepower CLS63 AMG Scorned

MBWorld forum members are calling this Benz's bluff. Drake at DLMphotos, the person who posted this video to YouTube, claims this Mercedes-Benz CLS63 AMG is blowing 900 horsepower out its ass end. The guys on the forum believe the so-called "900 horsepower" is "Internet horsepower". Do the Internet Math, and that converts to 650 real-world horsepower ... maybe 700 if the barometric pressure is right, and the driver has a bean-and-cheese burrito fermenting in the large intestine. More on the blog. |
Hmmm, Brabus punched the engine out to 6.0 liters to get the 850HP they are claiming... The CLS in the OP seems to smell kinda funny... |
Brabus published horsepower ratings are always crank figures. If you think about it so does the competition

Can that little driver see over the steering wheel?
