7.3 liter AMG is th engine for the Zonda , add 2 turbochargers and the SLR cant stand a chance

And who the hell could control that much power? That's excluding the stress the added power would add to the tranny, and the imbalances it would cause in the chassis.

That SL is insane. Hat's down to Brabus. They never seize to amaze me! :shock:

Anything from Brabus is worth the money no matter how much it cost

I love Brabus machines, just for the stupid amounts of power they shoehorn into each new Mercedes that comes out. I'm not sure about the interior either, but hey if you're spending that much money they will do things exactly how you want them!

Really cool car but the 0-60 figures are a tad optimistic. Really nice car though, execpt the interior.
