Murdered-Out Brabus Mercedes-AMG S 63 Looks Ready for 'Criminal' Activities on the Road
Because even the seventh-generation W223 Mercedes-Benz S-Class is starting to show its age as it's fast approaching the point of no return of a mid-cycle life update, it's understandable how come we haven't discussed it many times recently.

The latest iteration was introduced in September 2020, and four years later, it has 'said and done' just about everything, including thematic models like the S 680 Guard (bulletproof), the Mercedes-Maybach S 580 e plug-in hybrid, plus the Maybach S 680 "Edition 100" anniversary model, the Maybach S 680 Haute Voiture, or the Maybach by Virgil Abloh version.

One special place in the lineup is still occupied by the Mercedes-AMG S 63 E Performance variant, which was introduced in late 2022, so it is a little closer to our times. It arrived with another plug-in hybrid setup, this time around an M177 twin-turbo 4.0-liter V8 mixed with an electric motor and a smallish (for the saloon's size, at least) 13.1 kWh battery pack. The combined output is no less than 791 hp and 1,055 lb-ft (1,430 Nm) of mountain-moving torque, so the massive limousine has supercar characteristics: zero to 62 mph (100 kph) in 3.2 seconds and a limited top speed of 155 mph (250 kph) that can be lifted to about 180 mph or 290 kph if you pay extra for the AMG Driver's Package.

The distinctive features also include the Panamericana style for the radiator grille, and – unfortunately for those who love the iconic hood ornament – the S 63 E Performance only features a massive logo in the center of the grille. Back in the spring of 2023, when the ordering books were opened, the rumor mill quickly discovered that customers were informed that deliveries wouldn't start before the first quarter of 2025.

As it turns out, that wasn't the case because, in America, there's already at least one example of dwelling around feeling good about oneself when looking all murdered-out and dressed in Brabus attire. The showcase arrives courtesy of the good folks over at Hollywood, Los Angeles-based RDB LA, who also claim this 'bad' Brabus Mercedes-AMG E 63 S E Performance is worth no less than $300k – all thanks to various carbon fiber pieces that enhanced the limousine's appearance, the chrome accents, and the matching Brabus aftermarket wheels.

If you don’t like its murdered-out look and the potential to star in a criminal-focused TV series like Mayor of Kingstown or Tulsa King, no worries – they also have other stuff to show us. In the same YouTube episode, there's also a wild fire-spitting McLaren, and over on Instagram, they also showed a Lambo Aventador that now has a full widebody replacement kit and is dressed in Ferrari Rosso Fuoco to catch everyone's attention when it does AWD burnouts!
