However, the famous German tuner recently decided to revisit it on social media with a few pictures and a short caption: "Designed to change the limits." And they're not wrong, as this menacing Mercedes-AMG GLE 63 S Coupe boasts neck-snapping performance.
We already told you that it zips to 62 mph (100 kph) in just 3.2 seconds. What we haven't mentioned is the new top speed, which is limited to 205 mph (330 kph). The engine was massaged to develop 887 horsepower (900 ps/662 kW) at 6,200 rpm and 774 pound-feet (1,050 Nm) of torque, with the latter number being capped.
Brabus has increased the bi-turbo 4.0L V8 engine's displacement to 4.5 liters and has done various other work to it. This is why the Rocket 900 is significantly punchier than the standard Mercedes-AMG GLE 63 S Coupe. With no mods, the stock variant takes 3.8s to sprint to 62 mph and taps out at 174 mph (280 kph). The V8 motor produces 603 hp (612 ps/450 kW) and 627 lb-ft (850 Nm) of torque.
The Brabus 900 Rocket Masterpiece (the previous version was called the 900 Rocket Edition) also benefits from a whole bunch of add-ons. These include the new spoiler attached to its chin, a tailgate wing, fatter fenders, and a few other things that were manufactured of carbon fiber. The 900 Rocket Edition came with 24-inch wheels shod in Vredestein rubber, and these ones look about as big, though they have a different pattern.
This modified Mercedes-AMG GLE 63 S Coupe features a large Brabus logo on the tweaked grille, special emblems on the front fenders, and different logos out back on the tailgate that further highlight its special nature. The crossover coupe is mostly black, with the occasional naked carbon fiber look on certain components, and features a touch of yellow on the grille, brake calipers, and other parts of the exterior to tie it to the reworked cockpit.
Opening the door reveals a yellow interior with high-end leather upholstery wrapped around various parts. Brabus' logo proudly sits on the headrests, seatbacks, and other parts of the cabin. We can also see black piping and black leather stitched together with yellow string in a diamond pattern.
Everything that Brabus touches is worth a lot of money, including this Mercedes-AMG GLE 63 S Coupe that has turned into the 900 Rocket Masterpiece. The tuner hasn't said if it is for sale, and that probably means that it is not, and it might have been a special commission.
