Just as the dust settles on the hoo-hah surrounding the new Mercedes S-Class, along comes Brabus and kicks sand, dust and gravel in everyone's faces with the S V12 S Biturbo.

Keen students of deciphering the German tuning firm's names policy will quickly garner that this baby has a twin turbo V12.

With engine size increased to 6.3 litres and those turbos, Brabus has realised a heavyweight 730bhp and astonishing 974lb ft of torque.

Any idle boasting among friends of 0-60mph times will soon be flattened when the Brabus owner drops into the conversation the S V12 S Biturbo's 0-125mph time of 11.9 seconds. Top speed is 212mph. Game over.

The cops sure would, but, they have other modes of transit than thier crown vic or malibu or any othe 4 wheeled vehicle. Besides, at some point you'll either: stop, run out of gas, or crash.

Dough

BTW, the link goes to microsoft.com...? it does for me atleast.

Helicopters are a bit faster than cars.
