BRABUS Exhaust for Mercedes-Benz W140

Original BRABUS Exhaust for Mercedes-Benz W140 V12 (M120) Authentic BRABUS Germany • Engraved Part Numbers • Slanted Signature Tips This listing features an authentic BRABUS performance exhaust designed for M120-powered Mercedes-Benz W140 S-Class sedans, including the S600 and other V12 variants built from 1992–1999. Manufactured in Germany during the era when BRABUS was building bespoke high-performance tuning packages for the flagship W140, this system represents one of the rarest factory BRABUS V12 components available today. Built specifically for the 6.0-liter M120 engine platform, this system retains the characteristic BRABUS angled dual-tip exit, BRABUS engraving on the exhaust tips, and original stamped part numbers on the muffler body. These details confirm authenticity and distinguish it clearly from aftermarket replicas. Authentic BRABUS Construction & Identification This exhaust system includes the original factory BRABUS stampings, located on the underside of the muffler canister. The tips also feature BRABUS engraving, identifying them as genuine period-correct BRABUS tuning components built exclusively for the W140 V12 models. Features Noted on This System BRABUS engraved stainless tips Original BRABUS part number engravings on the muffler BRABUS angled exhaust tip design (signature slanted exit) Dual inlets merging into a single muffler before tip section Original BRABUS mounting hangers still attached All markings are clearly visible and confirm the system’s authenticity. Condition This exhaust is offered in original used condition. The seller reports: Tips show a high-polish finish with visible BRABUS engraving Metal surfaces show wear, typical age patina, and some use marks All original hangers remain intact No evidence of modification, alteration, or re-welding Metal wear does not affect functionality or fitment This condition is ideal for collectors or restorers who prefer original, unrestored BRABUS components. The system can be polished or refinished if desired but is presented exactly as it was removed from the vehicle. Fitment: W140 M120-Powered S-Class (1992–1999) Designed exclusively for V12 W140 sedans, including: S600 (U.S. and international models) 600SEL / S600 LWB Other M120-powered long- and short-wheelbase variants This system will not fit 6-cylinder or V8 W140 models due to differences in pipe routing and hanger positions specific to the M120. It is intended as a factory BRABUS upgrade replacing the OEM Mercedes rear muffler section. Signature BRABUS Design Like all period BRABUS exhaust systems, this W140 V12 unit features: Slanted Exit Design The exhaust tips exit the bumper at an angle, a defining trait of 1990s BRABUS styling. This slant differentiates it from both AMG and OEM Mercedes exhausts. BRABUS Sound Characteristics While sound varies slightly with aging, the system is known for: Rich, deep tone at idle Smooth, low-frequency note under acceleration Refined output suitable for luxury applications Unlike many aftermarket systems, BRABUS tuned these exhausts to enhance tone without sacrificing refinement, respecting the W140’s flagship character. Why This Component Is Rare BRABUS manufactured a small number of V12 W140 systems compared to V8 versions Most were permanently installed on tuned vehicles, not sold separately Many have since been scrapped with cars or lost due to age Genuine engraved systems with intact stampings are especially scarce As values of W140 V12 models climb, authentic period BRABUS components are becoming investment-grade items, matching the restoration trends seen with pre-merger AMG and early Alpina components. This is a genuine, stamped BRABUS exhaust system specifically built for the M120-powered W140 S-Class. Featuring original hangers, engraved tips, and bracketry, it represents a rare opportunity to acquire a true period BRABUS performance component, ideal for enthusiasts restoring or upgrading a flagship S600 or 600SEL with authentic German tuning heritage. Offered complete, in original used condition, with visible stampings and BRABUS engravings.
