Based in Bottrop, Germany, Brabus has been a staple tuning house for Mercedes and other German luxury cars for almost 50 years. Specializing in high-performance tuning and transformative body modifications, Brabus operates at the highest echelon of the Mercedes aftermarket, having created an arsenal of enhancements for virtually every model in the marque's range.

In 2009, Brabus launched its signature WIDESTAR body kit for the Mercedes GL-Class. Already a staple upgrade for the G-Class and Smart Fortwo, the WIDESTAR kit brought presence and authority to Mercedes' full-size seven-seater SUV. Made from high-quality Pur-R-Rim polymers, the body kit prominently added fender flares that extended the GL's width by two inches, plus redesigned front and rear fascia that incorporated better air flow, improved front lighting, and a rear spoiler.

This 2010 Mercedes-Benz GL 450 4MATIC is presented as delivered in Iridium Silver Metallic over Black interior and high-gloss Burl Walnut trim. It was sold to its first owner in April 2012 via Fletcher Jones Motorcars in Newport Beach, California—an authorized Brabus dealer who likely installed the transformative WIDESTAR kit new. The car remained in Southern California for nine years through a small number of owners, with regular maintenance performed at the dealer of origin and other Mercedes service centers. Its CARFAX Vehicle History Report records minor damage to the rear in September 2019.

In addition to the imposing wide body, Brabus equipped this car with their Monoblock E PLATINUM EDITION three-piece wheels and stainless-steel quad sport exhaust. The GL 450's restrained interior was left stock, as was its refined 4.6-liter V8 powerplant.

The Brabus-modified GL 450 was acquired by the Patina Collective in March 2022, entering an unrivaled collection of Mercedes enhanced by the most renowned Mercedes tuners extant. Offered with 120,790 miles at cataloging, this 2010 Mercedes-Benz GL 450 4MATIC, enhanced featuring the Brabus WIDESTAR kit provides a thoughtful blend of commanding presence, luxury, and everyday practicality; equally capable of accommodating family duties as it is turning heads wherever it arrives.
