from a good source

The Brabus will be available to Reservation Holders in the near future as they will be able to go to a special web site to convert their reservation to a Brabus. No turbo upgrade due for the launch, but a Brabus Sport is in the works that will incorporate the turbo (no release date). The Brabus will only come in 2 colors – Black and Silver – with matching Tridion Cell (no 2-tone coloring). Both the Coupe and Cabriolet will be available. Exterior wise, it will have the Brabus logo on the gas cap, front grille, and rear bumper and an aggressive front, side, and rear bumper design. Interior touches include chrome sport gas and brake pedals, silver painted dashboard end caps, and Brabus floor mats. Performance includes a sport exhaust with dual center tips, sport suspension, Brabus monoblock 6-Spoke wheels, 15” front wheels, 17” rear wheels, and Electronic Power Steering.

Hope this helps
