Created fastest convertible in the world

Masters Brabus tuning company did not put the first record of power and speed. The prepared version of convertible Mercedes E-Class raises the possibility of open cars to new heights: the return engine - 800 horsepower, acceleration to 100 km / h takes just 3.7 with a top speed of 370 km / h. Car Creators is proud to say that the faster convertibles in the world. In fairness, we note that among the roadsters and models with a body "targa" is a more serious and vehicles (the most famous - of course, Bugatti Veyron), but in the camp classic convertibles with four E-Class from Brabus really excels.

That under the hood? If the series E-Class flagship role played by the engine V8, then took a master tuning of the V12 S-Class sedan. Working volume increased from 5.5 to 6.3 liters. Motor has a new crankshaft, pistons modified, enlarged turbochargers and many other alterations.

Externally, aerodynamic looks relatively modest for the 800-horsepower supercar, but the Brabus representatives noted that the new bumper, "skirts" on the rapids and the wing created as a result of serious testing in a wind tunnel.

Brabus is planning to build similar convertibles to order at a price of 478,000 euros.
