A 217mph E63 monster

Brabus 850 60 BiTurbo

A couple of days ago, I told that the new E63 AMG, with its S-Model that comes with a more powerful version of the M157 5.5L V8 BiTurbo engine and the 4MATIC four-wheel drive system, proved that it still makes the rounds on the track with the added power and its unquestionable grip but only just. Now, the folks from Brabus knew I was wrong because what they want for the E63 AMG is more power so what did they do to it? They add more power to the teeth to produce their new weapon, the Brabus 850 60 BiTurbo.

What Brabus did is putting too much "male enhancement" stuff on the M157 V8 BiTurbo engine so that now, it has a displacement of 5.9L and with the host of performance enhancements such as big turbos, air intake, gold heat wrapping, and performance exhausts, capable of producing 838HP of power and 848lb-ft of torque.

In E63 S-Model guise, the top speed of the 850 will do about 217mph based on customer options. As for aerodynamics, their new body kit for the E63 is capable to reduce lift at speed and they're made entirely from carbon fiber.
