Brabus Vanish Mercedes-Benz SL 65 AMG Black Series
 The matt black colour scheme looks sinister
|
Bottrop, Germany - High-performance aftermarket
tuning company Brabus has created a new one-off sports car tuning kit
for the Mercedes-Benz SL 65 AMG Black Series. The name of this project was decided by the vehicles owner who resides in Dubai. And so the Barbus Vanish was born. Powering
the Vanish is a retuned 6.0-litre AMG V12 engine that pumps out 588kW
of power, that's nearly 19.5 per cent more power than the
standard engine. The power increase is achieved by installing
larger turbochargers, race tuned gearbox and larger exhaust. The bonnet
was replaced with a new version that features a weird hump, this was
made to accommodate the larger turbines. New Vanish-badged brakes are tucked behind the rims, while inside, Brabus badging and red stitching can be seen throughout. The
original pearl white paint scheme has been replaced by a matt black
decal wrap, much like the one seen on the recent Ford Focus RS500. Personally, I think I'd be taking the car back and asking for more refined bonnet, as this one looks kind of ugly! Related
