From a collectors perspective interesting. But thats nothing one of the aftermarket tuners couldn't do.

This is my favorite shot of the Brabus SLR...


I love the rims and the front lip. Its super agressive and yet laid back.

Absolutely

I was just thinking that I have a nice sport coat that car would go well with.
