Brabus SLR and Maybach

[MegaSuperdude]

Brabus has made two amazing cars even better.
Maybach (http://www.rapidcars.com/maybachsv12.php)
SLR (http://www.rapidcars.com/brabusslr.php)

The SLR one is rather old, and on this forum. As for the Maybach......I don't see a use of making it fast, and even if it could get up and go, moving that much weight around a corner is just too hard to really make it into a track car. It's an all out luxury car, not a sport racer.

Brabus is sweet. I noticed in that in the Game's video for Hate It or Love It that Brabus had there plaque on the front of the CL. Kinda random, im prob the only person who would notice that.

if i ever strike it rich.. really rich.. i would love to get my hands on that maybach. CdocZ its not meant to be a track car at all...

its mainly a car for dignitaries and people who need protection. Once you bomb and bullet proof the thing, its weight increases a ton, and v12 engine helps keep it relatively speedy once all that weight is added.

The SLR looks phat, I dont realy like the look of it but Brabus have made me change my mind.
The Maybach on the other hand doesnt do anything for me, I dont see the point in having a car like a Maybach that can do stupid speed bcoz its a luxury car and thats it, making it go realy fast just seems pointless for me as the people who buy them will be in the back reading The Independant checking the stocks and shares whilst Jeeves is sat upfront in a gay hat doing 25mph in rush hour London traffic.

i really, really like the brabus creations. i like the fact that they don´t change the looks of the cars, but usually they make it fast as shit. like this one,

the e-class V12, 7,4 litre... (http://www.supercars.net/cars/1996@$Brabus@$E%20V12x.html)

they are the ultimate sleepers, imo. or one of the ultimate sleepers, at least.

or this one,

a newer e-class... somewhat fast... (http://www.supercars.net/cars/2003@$Brabus@$E%20V12x.html)

i especially enjoy the e-classes, since at least here they are the most commonly used taxis... just imagine, a taxi doing 0-60 in 4.1 seconds... :D

That was exactly my point. Why try to make it fast, when it weighs too much to really do anything.

did you read when i said this :

its mainly a car for dignitaries and people who need protection. Once you bomb and bullet proof the thing, its weight increases a ton, and v12 engine helps keep it relatively speedy and powerful after all that weight is added.


anyways...

or this one,

a newer e-class... somewhat fast...

yeah that maybach would be so cool to have a huge ass car with that much luxury and still be able to haull ass. you could almost beat ferrari's in that.

Since "no" has already been said, I will explain why. 1) A Maybach weighs several tons. No way it can accelerate fast enough to keep up with a Ferrari. 2) A Maybach is not meant to turn in the first place, and adding in it's weight......well, it's simple physics. The more something weighs, the harder it is to move it's momentum. 3) If it needed to stop, it's massive weight, would once again kill all chances of it's being able to stop quickly. It would have to add on several seconds of it's time accelertating out of a turn, and then slowing down gradually and slowly for the next, while a Ferrari can stop very quickly, and keep up a high speed through most of the track.
