    Brabus Merc R320 CDi 4matic? Never heard of it?


    Where did you find it's brabus :?: i can't see logo :)

    Original Brabus has Brabus logo on left and model name on right but of course everyone can buy brabus logo fot € 83 or emblem for € 47 you can also buy Brabus engine for R class:

    ° R500 (400hp), enlarged to 5.8L - € 24.871,00

    ° R500 (426hp), enlarged to 6.1L - € 28.619,50

    ° R500 (445hp), enlarged to 6.1L - € 34.569,50

    ° R350 (332hp), enlarged to 4.0L - € 21.301,00

    All those engines are petrol not diesel, so i think this R320 CDI has only Brabus logo if it has (i can't see logo on photo). Never heard about R320 by Brabus

    Infiniti EX35 (SUV)

    Could only get a pic of the Infiniti, i'll throw it up when i find the phone cable

    I saw one yesterday in Drogheda, interesting looking car.

    On the right should be model or engine name like D6 or SV12

    I think is fake too, but we can't be sure before we see engine :D

    You are in the increased displacement engine section, you need to click on Diesel Performance Packages up the top :)

    D5 (III) R 280 CDI / R 300 CDI 178 kW / 242 PS 510 Nm + 38 kW / 52 PS + 70 Nm 6,9 s 250 km/h

    D6 (III) R 320 CDI / R 350 CDI 200 kW / 272 PS 590 Nm + 35 kW / 48 PS + 80 Nm 6,5 s 250 km/h

    So it's real :D

    conneem-TT i didn't see this section, my fault... But it's still no real Brabus... maybe only engine tuned by brabus, there is no body kit, no rims :)


  • Registered Users Posts: 4,008 ✭✭✭rabbitinlights

    I think having the engine tuned makes it more of a brabus than just having bodykit/rims. For the Q-Car effect......

    E350 Coupe.

    Very nice. His last car was a 6 Series so a little better this time around.

    That's one bland looking car for the money!:eek: If it had a KIA/Hyundai badge you wouldn't look twice at it.

    I think Marcinek_55 means it really needs more than just what basically is a remap to don the Brabus badge :)

    I mean that real Brabus should look like Brabus, sound like Brabus and drive like Brabus, I think you understand me now :)

    For example: Engine swap from Ferrari to Fiat do not make Ferrari from Fiat

    I think we can call this Mercedes "powered by Brabus" instead "tuned by Brabus"

    I think we can call this Mercedes "The owner stuck a Brabus Badge on the car cause he thinks it looks cool and even stuck it on the wrong side" ;)

    Regcheck shows its a MERCEDES R320 SPORT CDI A (Diesel), I suppose we'll never know unless we saw under the hood.
    Anyway its still a seriously ugly machine :)

    Great spot, where was it? I've seen and heard one before at the Ferrari relay thing a few years ago, some machine!


  • Registered Users Posts: 9,248 ✭✭✭Plug


    Seen this today in Kilkenny, an Ultima GTR. I was talking to the lad with it and he said its the fastest they built. Over 700bhp:eek:

    Expect it's U.A.E, likely Abu Dhabi or Dubai judging by the couple of lads there in the Thawb's (long white robes)

    <Edit> Definitely it's UAE after I noticed the www.suzukicup.ae website listed on the sign to the left........ quick check on Google says it's held in Dubai

    1) go to http://imageshack.us/
    2) upload the pic from your pc
    3) get the "direct link"
    4) copy and paste it in your post where the * is like this between these two image brackets: *

    It's really nice but the round headlights make it look so dated. They should have come up with an all new headlight design, unique to the SLR. When I see it now I just think of the previous generation SL/CL.

    Love everything else about it though :pac:

    Saw a CL65 AMG yesterday evening in Glasnevin, he was pulling out of a visitor parking space in our apartments. It is that long that it was longer than the parking space!!
    Defo a CL65 AMG had the V12 bi-turbo badges and all. Tinted windows too. I don't like mercs generally but this was a MACHINE! Alloys were amazing.

    I didn't get a pic, just got a new phone last week (HTC) and fumbled to try and get a pic and opened up the weather app while trying to open the camera. Raging :mad:

    My tenant said it's in and out every few days so he's going to try to get me a pic :)

    I don't like posting photos that weren't taken by me but this has to be seen, exact same colour/alloys only difference is that the windows aren't tinted on this pic.
