I saw a Mercedes coupe on the way home today on I75 NB and spotted a previous gen. with a "Brabus" badge on the left. I don't know my merk-a-dees very well, but it looked like a CL600. I was just wondering if anyone knew what the Brabus was all about.

I've see the same thing. It's a tuning group to my understanding.

To my guess, the owner probably just badged the car. I doubt they put 140k down for it.

I don't know, it had the body kit and rims, but the driver didn't looked more like he was faking it, totally sporting his sweatband around the wrist.
I also wasn't close enough to hear the engine/exhaust . . .

I frequently see a black E-class Brabus sedan on GA400N on the way to work. Might be a real sleeper.......

I suspect I saw the same car. It was Sunday, CL w/ Brabus badge on the left, silver car, nice wheels, dropped suspension, tinties?
