    This is a Mercedes Benz AMG E 50. Produced by the former tuner AMG (now a 100% owned Mercedes firm). AMG made it´s reputaion thanks their "Hammer", a 300 E (W 126) with a 360 HP V-8 prodoced in the mid- eighties. That car was one of it first in it´s category, besides BMW M5.
    When AMG was bought by Mercedes they were obliged to put the 250 km/h limit on thei cars.
    Mercedes wants AMG to be what BMW Motorsport is for BMW.
    This is a Mercedes Benz 500 E. It has a V-8 from 500 SL. This model was manufactured by Porsche.
    This is a Audi RS2. This was also built by Porsche, based on the Audi 80 Avant. Note the rearview mirrors, the front foglights and the Porsche "Cup" style wheels are from Porsche 911. This has a turbocharged fivecylinder engine and all wheel drive. It was only available as a estate.
    This is the all aluminium Audi S8. You could notice the difference between a A8 and a S8 by the chrome rearview mirrors and the 18" five spoke wheels. Thanks to it´s low weight (Due to aluminium) and four wheel drive it goes from standstill to 100 km/h as fast as an Euro BMW M3.
    This is the real killer. This is a Brabus E V-12 with a V-12 from Mercedes 600 (SL, CL, S) tuned to 582 HP. This rocket will do 330 km/h , but that is a limited top speed. It´s limited because the force on the tyres get to high. It is also available as an estate, the T V-12. But the estate "only" does 320 km/h, limited because of the sidewinds get to high because of the larger side area of the estate.
