Benz racing suv
I passed a Mercedes Benz suv eastbound on I-4 leaving Tampa a few days ago and wondered if anyone knows what it is. It had very wide tires, appeared to have a body kit, and a full rollcage. It was painted a dull, flat orange with some graphics on the sides and rear, one thing looked kind of like a clock and there was a name, possibly "GLOBUS" (or maybe BRABUS?). It had pretty strong acceleration ability, but not up to the level of my sti. He passed me after I got on the Polk Parkway because I don't speed on that road, it is too heavily patrolled. Just curious, if anyone knows about this vehicle.
It probably said Brabus. What kind of SUV was it? A Gwagen? (Big boxy one) or the newer G class, or an R class... etc.

It was definitely a Benz. I'm not sure what model, it could have been a Gwagen that was lowered and with a body kit, or possibly a GLK. I was in the far right lane and he was in the far left lane when I looked over and saw it as I passed. It definitely had a rollcage, I could see the tubes through the front passenger window. After that, he was behind me until I got off I-4. The paint looked very faded, but I think it was painted that way with a lot of flat black in the orange to make it look like a very flat, dull orange. There was some other writing and/or symbols on the sides, but I didn't get a good look at them. At one point, he tried to catch up to me and was coming on pretty strong for an suv, but couldn't do it.
did it look like this...

Doubt it. if it were one of those he would have had no trouble catching up.
I saw an F430 on I4 this afternoon. Had some phaggot in a white kia up his ass the whole time with a cell phone camera pulled out.

Hard to say for sure with the limited view I had, but I think it was more likely a lowered Gwagen with a widebody kit. It did sit very low to the pavement and had very wide tires.
