Brabus SLR McLaren
Mercedes-Benz tuning arm Brabus has a unique new package for buyers of its tweaked SLR McLaren roadster. For a cool €699,000 ($1,064,000), you get a customized SLR with a matching Brabus version of the Smart Fortwo—kind of like a suit with a matching tie.

Both vehicles add body kits, flashy wheels, fatter tires, and matching paint and interiors—but the similarities end there. The Brabus SLR is fitted with 20-inch forged aluminum wheels that the company claims will “further optimize handling and performance.” The front end receives a lift-reducing carbon-fiber spoiler, and the rear apron gets a similar carbon-fiber diffuser.

As if the stock SLR supercar didn’t have enough power from the factory, Brabus fits the 5.5-liter supercharged V-8 with more-aggressive camshafts and a fuel cooler. These two improvements net a gain of 24 horsepower for a total of 641. To help keep this power to the ground, a clutch-type limited-slip differential replaces the stock piece. These improvements allow the Brabus SLR to achieve 62 mph in a claimed 3.6 seconds and a top speed of 211 mph.

The interior is adorned with exclusive red leather and black Alcantara. The steering wheel gets a flat bottom to allow the driver to slip into and out of the roadster more easily. Carbon fiber trims the dashboard, the door panels, and the center console.

On the other hand, the Brabus-tuned Smart Fortwo, which is called the Ultimate 112, gets fender flares, a front spoiler, and side skirts. New 18-inch wheels with wider tires are bolted on to fill up the flares and provide more traction for the namesake 112-hp three-cylinder turbocharged engine. A tuned coil-over suspension keeps the wider tires pinned to the ground. The stainless-steel sport exhaust further informs others that you are not driving an ordinary Fortwo.

The 112 uses the same upholstery combination as the SLR. The rest of the interior receives body-colored trim pieces, an aluminum shift knob and brake handle, and stainless-steel “racing” pedals.

Although the two vastly different but matching vehicles are meant to be sold as a package, they also can be bought separately, and customers may choose their own interior and exterior colors. Source: caranddriver
