We've talked about the Brabus-tuned G63 AMG 6x6 on a number of occasions, always knowing that this is one of the most ostentatious cars ever made. With a carbon fiber body kit, the best interior this side of a palace and gold-plated engine bits, we knew it was special. But we never realized it sounds so good.
Up next, we're going to show you a video by TwinTurbo250 Production, who claims this is the only video on Youtube that "shows this beast revIng and accelerating like this". And you know what? He's not kidding; this really is the best video of the 6x6 we've ever seen.
The aural experience is nothing short of diabolical, as the twin-turbo 5.5-liter engine bellows like a NASCAR V8. Our hair stood on end during a spirited driving session going on in a long tunnel, where the G63 plays childish games with a Ferrari 458.
The tuners from Bottrop are only going to build 22 of these machines, nicknamed B63 S 700 6x6. They feature some pretty serious engine mods that increase the engine output by 156 hp and 200 Nm (147 lb-ft), resulting in the delivery of 700 hp and 960 Nm (708 lb-ft) of torque.
It's claimed that the six-wheeler can rival a hot hatch in terms of acceleration, dealing with the sprint from 0 to 100 km/h (62 mph) in 7.4 seconds. The top speed has been electronically limited to 160 km/h (100 mph), which is impressive… for a tank.
At the time of writing, Brabus has no less than 3 of these brutal machines for sale, with prices somewhere in the region of half a million euros. For a gold-plated, carbon fiber, twin-turbo tank, that's kind of cheap!
Mihnea's favorite cars have already been built, the so-called modern classics from the '80s and '90s. He also loves local car culture from all over the world, so don't be surprised to see him getting excited about weird Japanese imports, low-rider VWs out of Germany, replicas from Russia or LS swaps down in Florida.
