The New E: 2010 Mercedes-Benz E550 Full Test by Edmunds
With the new 2010 Mercedes E-Class Coupe officially on sale (in select markets, anyway), it's only fitting that we turn our attention to tuning programs for the new model. Always ahead of the pack with their tuning prowess, the first such program comes from BRABUS, with the company offering substantial styling and performance upgrades for the new E Coupe.
Outside, changes range from a new BRABUS front spoiler, front quarter panels, rocker panels and a rear apron to new BRABUS Monoblock light-alloy wheels in your choice of 17, 18, 19 or 20 inches. Complimenting its sportier appearance, BRABUS boosted the E500 (and E550) Coupe's displacement to 6.1-Liters, resulting in a total output of 462 hp (456 bhp) / 340 kW and a peak torque of 615 Nm (453 lb-ft) at just 3,100 rpm. As a result, the tuned E500 Coupe can accelerate from 0-62 mph in 4.7 seconds before reaching a top speed of 196 mph.
To ensure your performance-oriented E-Class Coupe stays planted firmly on the road, BRABUS has also added a height-adjustable coil-over sport suspension along with a high performance brake system – one that features six-piston aluminum fixed calipers and 360 mm (14.2 inches) vented and cross-drilled discs on the front axle (four-piston aluminum fixed calipers are fitted on the rear).
As is the case with all the BRABUS Mercedes tuning programs, there are a host of options which can be customized based on your specific requirements, including performance enhancements for different engine variants, interior enhancements, etc. As for the specific engine tuning program noted above for the E500 Coupe (E550 Coupe in the U.S.), it'll set you back EUR 29,000.
To learn more about the BRABUS tuning program for the 2010 Mercedes-Benz E-Class Coupe, keep scrolling for more photos (click any to enlarge) along with the official press release.
Enjoy ladies and gentlemen.

OTHER INFO:
This is without a doubt one of the best modified classic Subaru Impreza’s around. The car was completely re-built in 2003 from a bare GC8 STi shell. It had an imported American wide-arched body kit applied to it which has been completely smoothed in.The car had been originally sprayed inside and out, however last year it was fully re-sprayed on the 01/07/08 by THE WORX BODYSHOP of Padiham Lancashire who is well known for spraying Ferrari and Porsche cars at the cost of £4,000. The colour is Rage extreme ecstasy and you will not believe the quality of the finish.
The car looks and sounds awesome and believe me it is a crowd puller due to its uniqueness.
The car I have been told is running at 325 BHP, however without actually putting it on a rolling road I cannot be sure of this although I have to say having owned a couple of these in the past this being my 3rd and also owning Evo’s this is defiantly the quickest Impreza and is not far from my Evo which was running at over 350 BHP.
The car has only done 42k which is very low miles; I do have some previous MOT’S that verify this.
· MOT MID JULY 09
· TAX MAY 10
The entire sound system set-up equates to nearly 4k and was professionally fitted I have the receipts to prove.
Security
The car is fitted with Tracker and has two immobilisers and a cat one alarm. The door opens on a fob and locks on the fob. All certificates are present for insurance purposes.
