Fellbach tuning house GAD Motors has done the unthinkable and tuned Brabus’ already insane 370 km/h (229 mph) Bullit.

Equipped with a massaged bi-turbo 6.3-litre V12 powerplant sourced from the S-Class, the regular Bullit develops 588 kW (800 hp) and 1,420 Nm of torque, which is limited to 1100 Nm.

GAD’s conversion sees the addition of upgraded turbochargers, injectors, intercoolers and an optimized air box, along with remapped ECU software, resulting in a gargantuan 667 kW (894 hp) and 1413 Nm while the limited torque figure of 1100 Nm. The transmission was also strengthened for non-smashy gears reasons.

German magazine Auto Bild recently tested the car, recording a blistering 0-300 km/h (186 mph) time of 23.5 seconds, eclipsing even GAD’s CLS 63 AMG, the previous record holder.
