    Here is a 60 second look into the Mercedes-Benz C 112 supercar which was introduced to the world in 1991 at the IAA in Frankfurt, Germany.  The C 112 served as a technological prototype, a test vehicle and super sports car all-in-on.  The supercar has a 12-cylinder mid-engine with 408 horsepower and that could reach a max speed of over 300 km/h.  The C 112 was used by Mercedes-Benz exclusively for research purposes, and it was built  in order to positively influence driving stability using new electronically regulated assistance systems.  This research pioneered the way for Active Body Control (ABC Suspension), which is currently in series production on several Mercedes-Benz models.

    Check out the video below to catch a quick glimpse into the Mercedes-Benz C 112 prototype.
