I just grabbed a 2003 CL600 Brabus T12 off of ebay. 45K miles, pretty much mint, good service history, all original paint/panels.

$139K MSRP when new, and then the original owner sent it to Brabus USA and spent $42K on the T12 package. The Alcon front brake system was $11K (gulp) alone.

But with 570HP on tap, it's an, um, interesting ride. It's the only car I've driven that does these two things:

1. Forces you to steer around a car you want to pass prior to hitting the gas, or else you might crash into the back of them

2. Accelerates so hard when floored over 100mph that when you lift off the throttle, it keeps building speed for a few seconds just from momentum before it finally levels off to cruising altitude

Crazy crazy crazy. It's a sure-fire way to lose your license.
