I'm going to wait until the 98 HP turbo version is introduced before considering one. The BRABUS looks fantastic though.
Yes, the US Brabus is a stripped down version. I also noticed that the US won't get the "Brabus headlights". There was also no mention of a Brabus e-brake lever and a few other items. Regardless, it's still a good value (as compared to buying everything aftermarket).

Regarding the engine, I'm OK with either the N/A or Turbo engine. My ultimate desire is to see if I can stuff a C230K engine back there.
