tuningblog.eu Your magazine about tuning the car
You can turn it around as you like, the Mercedes Benz S65 AMG Coupé of the C217 series (based on W222) belongs to a species that is dying out. The 630 HP steam hammer from Stuttgart is not "yet" alone in this segment because there is one too BMW M760Li xDrive with V12 engine and also Audi uses the A8 D5 70 (6.0) TFSI again on the power of 12 pots. But we are pretty sure that with the successor of the G11 BMW 7er and the next generation of the Audi A8, an engine with 12 cylinders will no longer be available. All the more we enjoy on vehicles like this Mercedes S65 AMG Coupe that we on the side of the tuner RACE! SOUTH AFRICA have discovered.
The goal of the conversion were subtle modifications and what would be more in question than a carbon body kit from the house Brabus? That's exactly what you ordered and missed the S65 front a BRABUS bumper with additional BRABUS front spoiler and there were also changes at the rear. Here RACE! a carbon rear diffuser and a discreet spoiler lip for the tailgate. Of course, all components are kept in the classifying carbon and are particularly visible due to the white finish of the vehicle.
The diffuser also includes a flap-controlled BRABUS high-performance exhaust system with active sound management (adjustable at the push of a button on the steering wheel) and ceramic coated Designendrohren with two outlets the M 279 E 60 AL - V12 petrol engine Gives expression. The visual appearance is rounded off with Brabus monoblock aluminum wheels (about 22 inches), which are convincing with BiColor optics. On the other hand, we have no information regarding any increase in performance or changes in the interior. But like us Brabus Rocket 900 Mercedes S65 convertible has already impressively shown, 662 kW / 900 PS & 1.500 Nm torque are quite feasible with extensive changes.
And also optional precious wood inlays (eg with open-pore surfaces) or different accents in the form of aluminum components (Shift paddles, pedals, door pins) to the complete leather interior are available from Brabus for the big coupe. If we get more information about this there is of course an update for this report. You will be informed if yours is just ours Feed subscribe to. Have fun watching the pictures and stay true to us!
