This is a very rare Brabus New Millennium version, which was released to celebrate the transition to the 21st century. It was originally intended to make 100 units of this car, but production only got stuck at 50. This is number 5 out of 50. Brabus was at the time, of course, as AMG also started, an independent tuner. Where AMG entered into a partnership with Mercedes at the beginning of the 21st century, Brabus is a lot more independent to this day. This results in even rarer vehicles and an extra piece of exclusivity. This also translates into the styling of this car. Separately made bumpers, separate interior (on paper this car was purchased from Mercedes with a fabric interior, after which it was immediately fitted with an exclusive leather interior by Brabus in Bottrop), modified suspension and damping and beautiful polished Monoblock V rims, which on this copy in very good condition. It doesn't just stay with the exterior, Brabus has also not left the c320 engine untouched under the hood. The content of the block has been increased to 3800cc instead of 3200. Brabus has also tinkered with the camshafts and the block is equipped with polished cylinder walls and balanced piston rods. The car is equipped with a custom-made stainless steel exhaust system from Brabus and modified kats have been placed in the exhaust system. All this results in 300 HP power and 395 Nm of torque, unblown of course. This car was delivered new in Japan, to the leading Mercedes dealer and Brabus importer Yanase and was brought to the Netherlands in 2019. The car was fitted with a glass coating last year and is in a very neat condition. The car is completely preventively treated with Dinitrol to prevent any rust. There is 0.0 rust on the car, partly because the car has lived a very quiet life under the Japanese sun. For the rest of the time, the car has always been inside and this can be read directly from the car. The car is equipped with a European navigation system and has been brought back to European specification. Technically, the car has been completely checked by the Mercedes specialist from the north of the country. The car has a uniquely low mileage of 78,000 km, demonstrably. With this year of construction, the car is ideal to use as a Youngtimer and is also a good investment with a view to the future. A car in this condition that has been released in such a limited edition does not pass by every day.
