I don't think painting a car green will
automatically make it good for the environment. But at least it should blend
into the bushes at the Nurburgring, the track after which this color is named.
But considering the speed of this C63 S, it's better to keep it away from any
shrubbery.
It's interesting just how little Brabus needs to
deviate from the plan to make each tuning project unique. Sure, we've seen the
650 kit, but never on a green wagon. Looking under the hood, we find that the
lime metallic paint might actually have come from the factory, although a
complete Brabus respray is not uncommon.
The 140 hp increase comes courtesy of the Brabus
PowerXtra B40S kit, which includes some fancy internals and is accompanied by
the loudest exhaust you've ever heard. Thanks in part to the 820 Nm of torque,
this thing will go from 0 to 100 km/h in about 3.8 seconds and reach a top
speed of 320 km/h.
Although the body kit doesn't create the same
excitement as a RWD C-Class estate with the power for McLaren 650S, it still
gets the blood pumping in the downstairs area.
Carbon fiber is used throughout the aero package
that's designed to titillate your visual senses. And it's hard to miss when all
the factory pars are green and the inserts. In ou opinion, the black stripes
are a bit too much, but the carbon rear diffuser is the perfect frame for those
new exhaust mufflers.
The kit is complemented with a set of 20-inch
Monoblock wheels with low profile tires. The suspension might be upgraded using
Bilstein shocks, but that was entirely up to the customer. Brabus even went as
far as to replace all the Mercedes badges on this car and painted the roof
rails black.
