Even the most powerful Mercedes-Benz, the SL65 AMG Black Series, can\u2019t escape the hands of German tuner Brabus. Feeling that the stock car’s outputs of 661 hp and 738 lb-ft of torque were merely a good starting point, Brabus upped the ante to 789 hp and 811 lb-ft on this T65 RS.<\/p>\n

To make the power, Brabus bolts more powerful turbochargers and new exhaust manifolds to the Black Series\u2019s 6.0-liter V-12 engine. There are four intercoolers, which require the addition of a carbon-fiber hood scoop to fit under the hood and allow them breathe properly. A reprogrammed engine computer and stainless-steel exhaust system round out the changes. Oh, and the modified engine still passes Euro IV emissions standards.<\/p>\n

Performance? Brabus predicts a 0\u201362 mph run of 3.6 seconds, identical to our 0\u201360 run in a stock Black Series<\/a>. Top speed is capped at 200 mph, although the company says an unrestricted model could run north of 206 mph.<\/p>\n

The car seen here is unique and was special-ordered by a longtime Brabus customer. It’s customized with matte-black paint and a mix of red-stitched leather and Alcantara on the inside. If you like what you see, Brabus will sell you all the parts to turn your own Black Series into a T65 RS.<\/p>\n
