Thinking about doing a casual comparison video where we discuss and rate the Bentley GTC, S Class , and M850i....thoughts? I think there would be some great dialogue from this.
NO, not an S Class killer at all...it's just a newer renamed 6 series very beautiful but I still think the 6 series Gran coupe is one of the best looking BMW cars you will see on the road and it's great that it's still gonna remain relevant
At a BMW M Event, they handed me the keys to it and asked me to come back within a half hour. Traffic caused me to go on some rough back industrial roads. It’s absolutely a heavy sport GT. You can feel the road but it takes any sharpness out of harsh bumps. It wants you to drive FAST and hit the corners HARD. The only negative: The seats look great and for a short time are comfortable - but after a half an hour I WANTED to bring the car back. For my 6’4” frame the seats became shockingly stiff hard and uncomfortable. I’m comparing this to Benz Bentley Maserati Lexus Volvo, other BMWs, Chrysler and even a Prius, (which we took from San Diego to Ensenada Mexico). I literally could not wait to get out of that seat, which looks great but is the worst I’ve been in, otherwise, I absolutely LOVED the car. It might compete in the same $$$

As many have stated, the S Coupe is in an entirely different league; but this car is no slouch either! With all that is going on design and technology-wise, the lower door handles really caught my eye. Small, inconsequential thing, but something that I think I'd get a kick out of every time closed the door if I owned one of these.
Great car and this is the best review i have seen to date, it was natural, unforced and plenty of fluency! Great review Sir and sensational automobile. My only gripe is that BMW needs meatier tires on this beast, those small tires leaves me wanting!!
BMW had since 2014 to figure out and come up with a S63 AMG cabriolet killer and I am disappointed to say after 5 years of trying to copy and come up with a better competitive product ...they still cannot beat Mercedes
Matching with the new 8-series. As an engineer, OCD as it applies to black fashion isn't foreign to you so great video combo. Having said that, I'm not a bimmer fan but, this is a nice looking take on full-size GT convertibles. CADILLAC ARE YOU LISTENING!!!!
This is the first BMW besides the X6 that's caught my attention. The interior has always been my biggest complaint of BMW. Even still, I'm a Benz boy at heart. The S-Class can't be touched!
More an E class killer. The AMG S Coupe is a much higher quality car. The 8 is a great sports car but it’s not on the same level as S65 Coupe’s larger size, V12 engine, much better interior, more elegant exterior design. BMW has even said this was not made to compete with the S Series Coupe but a different style sports car.
"S-Class Killer?" Nah.... Its just a nice looking convertible. The rear & side view of this car is 10 out of 10 in my book, its the front grill that gives this car an eyesore. How long will BMW use this front grill? If they connected the two grills together, this would make the front look better, that's just my opinion though.
Great review and it is a beautiful car but I still prefer the 6 series convertible. Yes the 8 has a better engine but overall I prefer the interior of the 6. Also the 6 has a larger trunk, more back seating space ( not the greatest room in the back seat but the 8 series can't fit anyone in the back) also the front in the 6 has more head room and shoulder width. Much more comfortable than the 8 series. I'm a large guy and I felt cramped in the 8 series when I sat in it in the dealership. Overall the 8 series is a beautiful car, but for the half a second difference for 0-60 I still prefer the 6 series. Besides, who can deny the beautiful flowing leather and stitching of the 6 series is not one of the most beautiful interiors of any car.
On the Outside maybe but when it comes to Interiors, S class dominates all its rivals. This Bmw interior is too plain, nothing says luxury like an S class. Great Video 👍🏻
First off, Love your reviews and I am looking at resale 2021 M850i xDrive convertible or a 2020 911 4S cabriolet. BMW scares me because they drop in value so badly. I never noticed previously, but do you always match your clothing to the color of the car? I think it's pretty cool!
Good review. Hard to compare the two. This wouldn't do it for me if I was a MB buyer. Too low looking and too many creases, a malady of all current BMW vehicles, including the SUV's.
S class is better looking. I like the 850, and I looked at one but I dont fit at 6'5" tall. 523 hp also is way under the S63. Sounds pretty mean though !!
I think this car is above average in terms of exterior design. Interior design is like any Honda accord or even a Camry being very honest. However, it is way elegant than accord or Camry. I’m sure everyone BMW guy know its not close to Mercedes or Bentley. Cus these two brands are fighting each other. I would say Bentley cannot compete with merc on interior but only exterior. I’m sure he meant BMW wanted it to be merc killer but in his honest thoughts he knows clearly merc cannot be compared to it. Its only to Bentley and also Aston martin... great review tho
Great review as always, I'm just curious which one of the three luxury convertibles you've done recently would you choose if buying. Continental, S coupe, or M850?
Corey Spivey I would have to go with the Bentley, S63 is a close 2nd. Wouldn’t buy the M850, it’s a good looking car, but the design isn’t dramatic enough for me and the interior doesn’t keep up with the other two.
BMW, unfortunately, will never have Mercedes Benz quality. They “cheap out“ in certain areas the car where Mercedes Benz will not. Prime example is the convertible top. That car should have a convertible hardtop. If Mercedes Benz can figure out how to put a hardtop in a trunk, So can BMW. Obviously the technology is there but maybe the profit margin is not, for BMW.
You still have the best car channel on UA-cam it reminds of the show motoworld I used to watch. You definitely need to be on velocity TV. Keep up the good work.
Mercedes Benz will always be my preferable car brand. My boyfriend changed his car from Me4cedes to BMW and I told him I was no longer attracted to him, I left him because of his car choice. 🙈😂
Ben I actually watched a lot of your videos, I’m gonna be honest that you actually make some nice videos, but come on, a S Class convertible or coupe killer. Check the S Class status all the way up to the Maybach built design.
Jamminz I agree with you , that’s why the video title is more of a question, not a statement. Our next video is actually going to be “why the 8 series can’t touch the S Class”
Smh hard top would be better and it’s nothing special. Looks like an old 6 series. Bmw should have designed something completely different like the old 8 series.
Beautiful car. Think I'd prefer the coupe. However the original 6 series drop top was just as nice (exterior) if not nicer especially if u could afford a Hamann body kit. S-class killer? To me not even close to AMG Mercedes. I put that S class coupe against Bentley. Although that new Bentley GTC is near perfect, you can argue that the Mercedes is a more advanced car technically. Just my opinion however.

Please do that for us Ben!
I think that would be great
Great idea!
Ben Wayne go for it!... frankly tho, I’d love to see a convertible comparison (minus the S-Class)....
GTC wayyyy above these other vehicles....and 2.5 times as pricey.
That color combination is sweet
I see a new Ben Wayne upload I instantly click and like. Simple.
It may be a killer, but not an S-Class Coupe killer.
Even Ben Wayne says he wouldn't buy it.
NO, not an S Class killer at all...it's just a newer renamed 6 series very beautiful but I still think the 6 series Gran coupe is one of the best looking BMW cars you will see on the road and it's great that it's still gonna remain relevant

Your outfit matches the car interior and exterior colour! Amazing attention to detail
Victoire N. Ha ha! I was thinking the same thing!

Nothing tops S Class 👎
Actually a good review with some very nice shots. Thank you!
Idk about an S-class killer😏
Facts that shit kinda ordinary just a big body 650 drop
As many have stated, the S Coupe is in an entirely different league; but this car is no slouch either!

When the engine starts 😍😍😍😁🤤
Coty L right!!!
Great car and this is the best review i have seen to date, it was natural, unforced and plenty of fluency! Great review Sir and sensational automobile. My only gripe is that BMW needs meatier tires on this beast, those small tires leaves me wanting!!
Beautiful car. I would definitely buy one in this exact color combination.
BMW had since 2014 to figure out and come up with a S63 AMG cabriolet killer and I am disappointed to say after 5 years of trying to copy and come up with a better competitive product ...they still cannot beat Mercedes
I love when you guys weigh in on this. I must agree, the S63 is in a different league.
Superb job! Well done. The car looks amazing.
Chris bangle killed what BMW used to be...an ultimate driving machine
Very nice but will never be an S Class Cabriolet. Great review.
Matching with the new 8-series.
As an engineer, OCD as it applies to black fashion isn't foreign to you so great video combo. Having said that, I'm not a bimmer fan but, this is a nice looking take on full-size GT convertibles. CADILLAC ARE YOU LISTENING!!!!
S Class coupe will never be beaten!
This is the first BMW besides the X6 that's caught my attention. The interior has always been my biggest complaint of BMW. Even still, I'm a Benz boy at heart. The S-Class can't be touched!
Even as someone who prefers BMW in almost all years, and all classes- I don't think the 8 series compares to the S class.
My father just bought one and he had a s63 amg coupe.. he says the s class is still a different league
The mercedes is like marriage, very overrated...
More an E class killer. The AMG S Coupe is a much higher quality car. The 8 is a great sports car but it’s not on the same level as S65 Coupe’s larger size, V12 engine, much better interior, more elegant exterior design.

tompparaideri nothing but the facts!!!
So it has the Nissan (Skyline GT-R) HICAS system... Or something very similar. Nice! Great video. This car is amazing.
wtf is the m8 gunna sound like this sounds savage heard it in person too not far off
"S-Class Killer?" Nah.... Its just a nice looking convertible. The rear & side view of this car is 10 out of 10 in my book, its the front grill that gives this car an eyesore. How long will BMW use this front grill? If they connected the two grills together, this would make the front look better, that's just my opinion though.
S Class killer? Nope.
The M850 is nice but the S class just looks more luxurious, more expensive and nearly everything else.
Chima Chinda 💯
Great review and it is a beautiful car but I still prefer the 6 series convertible. Yes the 8 has a better engine but overall I prefer the interior of the 6.

Great Video 👍🏻
Nice indeed.
Funny it's not as hot as the 8 series that came out in the 90s that one was crazy for it's time..
Thats an excellent point!
A class review.
First off, Love your reviews and I am looking at resale 2021 M850i xDrive convertible or a 2020 911 4S cabriolet. BMW scares me because they drop in value so badly. I never noticed previously, but do you always match your clothing to the color of the car? I think it's pretty cool!
They also need to coupe the 7 series
Fabulous!
S-Class cab has no competition
yass123 💯
I wonder if this car will come with a v12 engine in the near future ?
Always gotta be one to hate an excellent review... 🙄 Btw, the shoes... 🔥🔥🔥
This car is nice BUT absolutely never can it be better than S class, have both Cars in the room then compare!!!
Nice car but I'm getting a late model 650i convertible those are beautiful.
Honestly that's probably more bang for the buck.
@@BenWayne85 yep i like the 2012-2014 models
Good review. Hard to compare the two. This wouldn't do it for me if I was a MB buyer. Too low looking and too many creases, a malady of all current BMW vehicles, including the SUV's.
Whenever i win the lottery!
S CLASS KILLER? YOU CANT BE SERIOUS BRO. NO COMPARISON!
rodney boswell I’m not lol
great job keep up the good work.@@BenWayne85
S class is better looking. I like the 850, and I looked at one but I dont fit at 6'5" tall. 523 hp also is way under the S63. Sounds pretty mean though !!
Wait for the M8 later in the year....then you compare apples to apples.
I think this car is above average in terms of exterior design. Interior design is like any Honda accord or even a Camry being very honest. However, it is way elegant than accord or Camry.
I’m sure everyone BMW guy know its not close to Mercedes or Bentley. Cus these two brands are fighting each other. I would say Bentley cannot compete with merc on interior but only exterior.

@@BenWayne85 come on bro, you know the Benz is better. I get that the Bentley adds more to the swag factor, great video as always by the way.
@@m-ko5046 Wrong. Bentley for the win. Class dismissed.
BMW needs to coupe the 5 series
👍🏾
Bmw 6 series gran coupe is BMWs best looking car bro.
They should have named this the M650i.
Prefer a f type
I think BMW got this one on benz
13:00 How are you going to kill the S-Class without a Red Top to match the red interior?
Like a cabriolet?
I’ll take the S65 AMG.
It would be a nice car, if they'd put a muffler on it.
should've been a drop top hard top
Very nice but will never be an S Class Cabriolet.
BMW, unfortunately, will never have Mercedes Benz quality. They “cheap out“ in certain areas the car where Mercedes Benz will not.
Prime example is the convertible top. That car should have a convertible hardtop. If Mercedes Benz can figure out how to put a hardtop in a trunk, So can BMW. Obviously the technology is there but maybe the profit margin is not, for BMW.
This car can’t touch my 2012 SL63 AMG, not performance, not handling, not seats, not hard top convertible, not body styling, and not the interior.
You still have the best car channel on UA-cam it reminds of the show motoworld I used to watch. You definitely need to be on velocity TV. Keep up the good work.
Mr Alexander 😂 😂 😂 😂 its 2019 sir....and this is the m850i..
Behave. Buddy
Mercedes Benz will always be my preferable car brand. My boyfriend changed his car from Me4cedes to BMW and I told him I was no longer attracted to him, I left him because of his car choice. 🙈😂
LOLOLOLOL
If u call this the S Class killer, u don’t know cars dude, it is nice.
Jamminz ha! You have GOT to be new here!
Ben I actually watched a lot of your videos, I’m gonna be honest that you actually make some nice videos, but come on, a S Class convertible or coupe killer. Check the S Class status all the way up to the Maybach built design.
Jamminz I agree with you , that’s why the video title is more of a question, not a statement. Our next video is actually going to be “why the 8 series can’t touch the S Class”
There is no S class killer in the auto industry...
FACTS
It looks regular it’s not sexy enough. They need new designs
Smh hard top would be better and it’s nothing special. Looks like an old 6 series. Bmw should have designed something completely different like the old 8 series.
The 8 series cab is better than the s cab but the 8 series coupe looks shit and the 8 series looks far newer
S class killer?.......Nah not by a mile
s class coupe any year beats this bmw.
สวยมาก.อยากได้
I don’t like it
Mercedes benz is like marriage, very overrated... 😂
LOLOLOLOL
Nothing special about this car all BMW cars looks exactly the same no difference...
even mercedeces cars look the same.
After all these years the BMW still looks the same boring. All the other luxury cars have stepped up and even Kia looks better than BMW.
Beautiful car. Think I'd prefer the coupe. However the original 6 series drop top was just as nice (exterior) if not nicer especially if u could afford a Hamann body kit. S-class killer? To me not even close to AMG Mercedes. I put that S class coupe against Bentley. Although that new Bentley GTC is near perfect, you can argue that the Mercedes is a more advanced car technically. Just my opinion however.
way underpowered... should have 700+ for that $
