You would be forgiven for thinking a 1,000hp Mercedes-Benz<\/a> limo is the stuff of pure fantasy, because that is exactly what it sounds like.<\/p>\n

However, far from being a dream, such a car does exist, after a former mid-2000s Mercedes-Benz E-Class limousine received all the upgrades to boost its power.<\/p>\n

This car, which is also inexplicably a drift limo, is far removed from its days of ferrying celebrities, government officials, or the rich around.<\/p>\n

But we love wild cars like this at Supercar Blondie, so read on to find out what makes this monster tick.<\/p>\n

This is how this Mercedes-Benz limo makes 1,000hp<\/p>\n

The car<\/a> belongs to content creator Backfire Brad<\/a>, and it started life as a Mercedes-Benz E-Class<\/a> limo.<\/p>\n

But since it\u2019s stopped being a luxury vehicle, it\u2019s had some wild modifications.<\/p>\n

This bonkers beast was created in just four months, so it could make it to the 2025 SEMA show.<\/p>\n

Not an easy task, but it is one that Brad and his team were able to fulfill.<\/p>\n

Under the hood, the standard Mercedes E240 engine has gone.<\/p>\n

Instead, this utter monster has a twin-turbocharged 6.0-liter Corvette V8<\/a> engine, making 1,022hp.<\/p>\n

\"This<\/a>backfire.brad<\/a><\/p>\n

Key to that are the two turbochargers, which are so big they are bigger than your face.<\/p>\n

They are so big, you can see them popping out of the hood of the limo.<\/p>\n

The car has the exterior design to match, with bright yellow paintwork and huge \u2018Drift Limo\u2019 logos on the side.<\/p>\n

This Mercedes really can drift<\/p>\n

That drift logo on the side of the limo isn\u2019t just for show either.<\/p>\n

Footage on YouTube showed the incredible car taking part in a drift event organised by Germans RD48.<\/p>\n

The event was called Ice King Battle, and it was effectively a drag race event, held on snow and ice.<\/p>\n

Already unlike any other drag race<\/a> event you\u2019ve ever seen, this car had an extra element of madness.<\/p>\n

Not only did the car look good, but it sounded superb as well.<\/p>\n

At the back of the car is a huge rear wing, which in theory keeps this monster glued to the ground.<\/p>\n

For a car built in just four months, it is mighty impressive.<\/p>\n

If you thought a limo was built purely for cruising, then this Mercedes-Benz limo will make you think again.<\/p>\n
