T h e . B u l l i t

While flippin thru old mag last weekend...came across this BULLIT...BRABUS is one of my favorite tuner for Benz compared to other Benz tuner....the high level of styling...attention to detail deserved my respect...its a well build package of motorsport & luxury...
The 2008 Brabus Bullit is based on a C-Class.  The mean gangster look really mean business and threatening MPower clan. The power plant of 6.3-liter V12, dohc, 48-valve, turbocharged and intercooled churn out impressively 730 hp at 5100 rpm, which hit 187.5mph in 24.5 seconds. That is 8.5 seconds faster than the Porsche GT2...!!


The new wider front fenders were extended the car's width by 1.2 inches per side hand-formed from sheet aluminum by an in-house craftsman to accommodate 9.5x19 and 10x19 Brabus Monoblock S wheels. The braking line been improved balance out the 730hp plus 4180 pounds of weighs by using Alcon-made 15-inch slotted, vented discs with 12-piston callipers in front and 14-inch rear discs with six-piston callipers. 


Super lightweight materials were use where possible helps to even things out. From front bumper, spoiler, side skirts, rear bumper, underbody diffuser and three-piece rear trunk spoiler all  in 100% carbon fiber.
