Back in March we brought you details of the BRABUS tuning program for the 2010 Mercedes E-Class Cabriolet – a well rounded assortment of enhancements ranging from engine upgrades to aerodynamic improvements and new interior appointments.  Today we’ve got your first look at a second BRABUS E-Class Cabriolet, this time, with changes on the outside limited to new front fenders with integrated air ducts and a set of BRABUS Monoblock wheels.  Under the hood, power is supplied by the BRABUS 6.1 engine producing an output of 462 hp (456 bhp) / 340 kW and a peak torque of 615 Nm (453 lb-ft) at 3,100 rpm – enough to help the E-Class Cabrio accelerate from 0-62 mph in a brisk 4.7 seconds before reaching a top speed of 186 mph.

Inside, changes are… how do I say this… less than subtle.  A new BRABUS interior featuring red leather seating with diamond pattern stitching is present, as is matching red leather in the door panels.  In the rear, occupants are treated to a BRABUS multimedia system with two monitors mounted on the back of the front seats, while new BRABUS floor mats and red stitching throughout the entire vehicle completes the list of BRABUS interior customizations.
