Perhaps only someone the likes of Lara Croft could appreciate the combination of pants-peeing intimidation and
black-tie affair elegance offered by the Brabus Unimog U 500 Black Edition. Based on the Unimog U 500, the Brabus Black
Edition receives a completely redesigned exterior with a new front bumper, integrated side panels and polished
stainless steel roll bar. The interior is swathed in Alcantar leather and features such niceties as the COMAND system
from the MB S-Class, a 6.5-inch screen, DVD nav system and CD changer. The press release on
ClassicDriver claims the Black Edition is
suitable for a wide range of applications, including day-to-day use in the city (perhaps if one’s goal were to demolish
the city) and excursions to rough mountain areas (perhaps if one’s goal were to demolish the mountain). Indeed, the
Brabus Black Edition gives new meaning to the phrase, “Climb into an SUV”.
The Brabus Unimog U 500 Black Edition tops out at above $275,000US.
