C&D go horsepower crazy with the Kleemann 55S8

Speaking of ungodly horsepower numbers here’s an interesting take on the latest from American tuner Kleemann. This 570 horsepower, 580 lb-ft of torque version of the C55 AMG just turns my brain to mush when thinking about it. Now who tunes an already tuned car? Kleemann I guess is the answer moving the 0-60 time from 4.7 to 3.8 seconds by adding a water-to-air cooled supercharger and extensive new exhaust system. This beast can beat most exotics and comes close to many others. All this modified goodness comes to a grand total of $99,003. A small price to pay for having such a sleeper in your garage.
