Using the same engine as the record breaking E and T V12, a
legend in its own right, the Brabus 7.3S models based on the W140 generation
S600 are some of the fastest accelerating cars in the Brabus stable. 100 km is
reached in 4.5 seconds and the S7.3S keeps on accelerating to a terminal
velocity of 314 km/h. Besides the new engine a new high performance exhaust
system, an aerodynamic kit that includes a front spoiler with integrated
lights, light alloy wheels available in 3 styles and various sizes and an
upgraded sports suspension and braking system are all standard on the top of
the line Brabus S-class. The interior also receives the standard treatment:
wood, polished aluminum and stainless steel are plentiful and if the customer
opts for them, a car phone, fax, computer, wood tables, a refrigerator and
curtains are also available. Lastly, a long-wheelbase variant is available with
a 50 cm (approx. 19.7 inches) longer wheelbase and dual airbags for the rear passengers. - by Traian Popescu
