      Odd, because looking at the camera pointed back into the car, the interior looks extremely bland. Something you'd see in a 4-cylinder Gaymaro or Shitstang.
      Exposed metal bars on the headrests, lolol tacky.
      No contrast stitching on the leather... are you effing kidding me?
      Way too many seams on the seats... just looks re-dick-u-less.
      And for this kind of money, you'd think you'd at least get gold plated seat belt clips... not the fire-engine red and black plastic.
      The dashboard and doors are nice... everything else... yuuck.
      And hey, notice how Douchey 14:36 has his cell phone resting against the plastic screen. So literally every bump or vibration is translated directly from his abrasive phone case, directly to the highly scratchable dashboard screen. lolol.

      The engines and body m,materials are great. It's everything else. The air suspension is the biggest point of failure on these cars. The ABC is great, but not needed unless you are doing Autobahn type of driving. When the ABC goes and it's not covered under warranty I suggest a high limit credit card.

      E Class got a little bit less quality in the interior. Still better than many other manufacturers but compared to the s class it's 'cheaper'. And the landing gear/shock absorber/air matic/glas-isolation is in the s class from another world and almost not comparable to the e class.

    • @tomjopling5665

      Huge difference in the level of interior quality going from the E to the S Class though. I have been looking for a replacement for my BMW745i over the past two weeks, and the E Class is a big step down in level of quality while the S Class is on par or above.

I laughed when you said 7,700 miles and no hiccup. Shit reliability of German cars have made people celebrate if their cars don't break within a year lol. I still like the S550 though. It is a great car.

    It's a lease vehicle, meaning it's not really YOUR car, you are essentially renting it from the dealer and paying for the depreciation. So how is there a warranty that can be voided? My understanding was you can do any modifications to a lease vehicle as long as it doesn't damage the car or can't be undone. My point being that you could probably do an intake, tune, etc. some simple mods.

    Every time on Sundays when I go to church, I see S Class from S550 4MATIC to Maybach S600 around. The design and technology of that car looks more beautiful. Someone told me that the difference between the S550 and the Maybach S600 is the space and leg room. She made to me that " the S550 4MATIC has more leg room and space than the Mercedes-Maybach S600 because I needed to consider taking long trips and carrying luggage off." It was hard to believe.

    I don't know if it's just me but when he talks about nothing has gone wrong with the car since he bought is, I mean that's pretty normal that an expensive car like a big Mercedes doesn't break or anything after only 10000 miles. That is really normal. I would say a car is pretty shit quality if it breaks in anyway before it has reached 10000 miles.

    • @1MotoXRacer1
      @1MotoXRacer1 8 років тому +6

      That's straight up bs. Maybe they were bought in his name but just think about it. Even if temporary jobs as an engineer. He went to college full time, no time to work, and this UA-cam channel isn't exactly nearing PewDiePie in views per week.
      His father probably gives him a lot of money to buy and lease these cars, and that's perfectly fine. But he did not pay for these like he says, lol.

    The S-Class has always been my dream car, but after seeing the new Genesis G90, I think I'd choose that over the S-Class.. Hyundai has come a long way. However, I do believe that the S-Class is still superior in many ways, but that gap is narrowing.

    • @Rick2010100
      @Rick2010100 8 років тому

      4Matic provides more traction, esp. on snow or wet roads. You can also accelerate quicker as the power is brought by all 4 weehls to the ground. In verry worm and dry regions you can save the extra money for the 4Matic. In regions with snow in the winter, the 4Matic is the car to have as it pushes to snow like a SUV.

      Ain't no hurry in the world. If I'm putting more than $50K for any car it's going to be how I want it. If I can't get it atm I'd wait, otherwise it would feel like I'm settling which is kind of dumb if you're paying that much.

    I've been looking at the Renntech ECU tune for my E550 coupe and from my understanding it doesn't void the warranty. Something to do with the owner of Renntech working with Mercedes. Could be wrong but you should look into it. The M278 engine is fantastic in stock form but 540HP and 705 lb-ft of torque? Yes please. Also, adaptive high beams are fucking awesome.

Would you drive to uni in a S-class? I'd be afraid that someone would scuff the car, cause it looks out of place as it's surrounded by cars of an average value between 4k & 8k USD.

      I'm just saying. With traction control off and heavy rain and a heavy foot the 300 spins till 3. Throwing it a round is pretty easy. I only have te 3.7 and it's fun, especially since it tops off at 120 stock at 4000ish pounds and rather quickly.

    #2 The interior design doesn't look like a "regular car". The other cars in that range look like high-end versions of regular cars.
