To kick things off this balmy Thursday morning our friend Vincent over at Autoblog.nl alerted us of the fact that his crew recently had the opportunity to test the consummate BRABUS Rocket.  The BRABUS Rocket is - as I'm sure you already know - a Mercedes CLS fitted with a supremely powerful V12 and and a wealth of other performance enhancements, all of which add up to a total power output of 730 hp / 537 kW and an electronically limited peak torque of 1,100 Nm at 2,100 RPM.  It also holds the distinction of being the world's fastest production sedan, hitting a top speed of 227.24 mph on the famous Nardo track.

But the question remains:  "What did the fine gentlemen of Autoblog.nl think of the nearly $500,000 BRABUS Rocket?"

That, my dear readers, I will let the video answer.  I will tell you however, that their overall impression was a good one.

To watch the BRABUS Rocket video review and see the exemplary sedan in all its ominous glory, you can check out the video here.

Enjoy.
