It’s not like the Mercedes SLS AMG is underpowered, but when you’re a recognized premier tuner of most things Mercedes, it would not be proper to ignore Mercedes-AMG’s top-of-the-line offering. So Brabus dutifully set about improving the awesome SLS AMG. By reworking the ECU and installing a titanium sports exhaust, Brabus was able to push engine output to 610 horsepower, from an already stellar 570.

And as you can see in the flesh below, the Brabus treatment, by employing blacked out trim and grille, manages to exude a predator-like aura despite its subdued look. Only keen-eyed observers will immediately notice the discreet Brabus badges on the sides and rear of the car. In contrast to the glitzy and sometimes ridiculous looking, but expensive cars found everywhere in Dubai, this one becomes even more noticeable due to its lack of bling.
