          Brabus CV8 6.1
          Just read a road test on the new Brabus CV8 6.1 which is a Merc Sports Coupe with a 6034cc V8 stuffed into it. Has 420bhp and 458lbs torque unfortunately through a 5 speed auto box. Top speed 188mph and 0-60 4.4 secs. Cost in UK is 66K pounds (92K USD). Would be pretty unique car but a lot to pay for a small 2 door coupe.
