the technology in this car is over 6 years old,and still is the most advanced car in the world(this car is not a full option model,you can see it doest have electrical seats in the back,no tv in the back,no fridge etc...)the only car that can compare to this in only the audi a8 l with the rear monitors in the back and the folding seat...what a car,the new s class will be launched next year,at i just cant wait to see it
I drove a S550 4 matic with night vision,cruise control braking,park assist,and lane assist with independent controls for all 4 seats, amazing the 2014 are about to come out with a new design, what more can be added to a car? music,lumbar,message seats, heated, cooled,next they will come with maids lol. I love Mercedes for what they have achieve in safety and technology,I don't need a 12 cylinder or 63 or 65. the standard version has all the comforts I want and need. this was a 07 with97k mile.
I can't believe as someone who looks at the A8 everyday you call the S550 ugly, its probably one of the most beautiful modern cars on the road, especially compared to the A8. And, yes I just looked at the S8's stats, and it is just a little more powerful than a regular S550! Just another Audi that will be blown away by S63, S600s and even S550s with ECU tunes! In the end, I don't think Mercedes is worried at all, they are the best manufacturer in the world and their sales figs show it.
Also the "has always been" makes it a bit weird, considering the S-Class is 43 years older and has 43 years more of being the perfect luxury vehicle than the A8 has. I drive an S-Class, not just because it's the most comfortable car around with the most neat buttons and gadgets, but because I know that such an amazing amount of time went into developing it over the years, not just some gimmick big chrome grill that yells "look at me" and a shit ton of LED's.
I own a 2009 S550 and a 2007 Porsche Carrera S. Saying the S-class rides like shit is as incorrect as putting emphasis on handling in a big luxury cruiser is. These cars are autobahn cruisers, not canyon carvers. As a luxury sedan, the S-class is a much better car than the A8. The numerous car magazines which place the S at the top, and just the sales figures alone back that claim up. I think its something like 7 in 10 buy S, 2 buy 7 series and 1 buys A8.
The S-class has and always will be at the top leaving the 7 series and the A8 to be compared to eachother, I wonder how let your self buy an A8 even over a 7 series. Don't worry, Audi has their niche, and that is making cars like the S4 and S5, that's all they're good for.
Also might be worth noting that the S-Class has innovated such an amazing amount of features that are now standard in all cars. In return of that - Audi hasn't invented, at any point, as much as this car has.
What? No. I don't think you get how turbos work. You still get the power normally, however when you hit a certain RPM, the turbos start to spool up and give you even more power. Does make the non-turbo lag feel like the car has less power, because of the huge power increase of the turbos. However there should only be power going up, not down by fitting them.
Its too bad they stopped the W221 production its my favorite of any car they ever made, I don't see anything that I like when I visit the Mercedes dealership today, all garbage.
Not to mention the S-class is four years older than the new A8, when the all-new S comes out this year there is no doubt in my mind that it will soar past the A8 and the 7 series in every category. The front of the new A8 is nothing special at all, with its circus-style squiggly LEDs, and a rear end that looks exactly like an A4.
Also, in all honesty, with the huge list of Mercedes inventions such as the Airbag, ABS and three-point safety belt, I really don't think Mercedes would have the need to do an AWD, cheap 2 door car. Not saying the Quattro is a bad car, however it's in no way a possible thing to compare to Mercedes. Mercedes has just been around as a company for so much longer with such a great history. Remember, Mercedes made the biggest and best cars in the 1960's and 1970's. No one could beat them.
Not the S63, but a 2009 E63, and no I don't own one. I haven't driven the twin-turbo AMG V8, but I just drove the 328i with the straight 6 and the new 328i with the straight 4 and a turbo. The older 328i was more than certainly more urgent than the new one! With a turbo, you just don't get slammed into the seat as hard as you would with a naturally aspirated engine with the same power output! It is old-fashion to not want turbos, but it is a fact.
I was saying of course you would trade in an S63 for an Audi, you're an Audi salesman! I like Audis and all, but to be honest I don't think you can compare the S63 to the nicest A8 available.
I do give you that, but an engine that produces lets say 500 bhp without forced induction feels more urgent than an engine that kicks out the same 500 bhp with turbos (even twin turbos). You just don't get the crisp and electric response that defines AMG.
I was just correcting you when you mentioned "the old 6.3L V8" ;-) The name 63 is a homage to the Mercedes-Benz M100 engine, no matter if the actual car right now has a 5.5, 6.2 or even a 6.3 engine :)
what engine on S class will you suggest for the better ratio between power and fuel economy?? i mean that S class must be powerful, but using a S65 everyday is not convenient even for a rich man, so what will be that engine which can offer biggest power for everyday using?? p.s. i want an answer from somebody who drove that engines, with real experience, because information about acceleration and speed i can read too.
@Nikola Djuric Did you watch the video? I'm sure you did and I'm sure you noticed the part where he talks about the "old 6.3" which I corrected in 6.2... I know the new engine is not a 6.2, this wasn't the discussion.
What do you mean Audi has always been on top? Factually, They have never actually been on top and they still aren't, but I guess your opinion is another thing. It is a fact that Mercedes has been the top manufacturer of luxury vehicles since the 1920s, look at the 540K and its value! This factual claim can be backed up by sales figures, the countless innovations, and overall reputation Mercedes has made throughout the years. Google S vs 7 vs A8 the S always comes out on top in any poll or review
Oh you think Mercedes has a different V8 engine for each of their cars? Funny you… I know that it's a 5.5, and when it replaced the 6.2 it replaced it everywhere, in the C-Class, E-Class, S-Class etc. If you would have watched the video you would know that I was correcting his mistake when he said "6.3", which was a mistake as well because, as the title says (wow can we read?) it's a 2010 model and therefore a 5.5… thanks
Your first sentence made no sense, you don't care about history, presence or the fact that Audi thought Mercedes had a great suspension system, so they copied it, yet you call Audi's version better (proven not to be), owning a Benz isn't AS prestigious as it has been, it still is very prestigious (Benz was THE most prestigious all the way up to 1997), The E-Class is "a Benz for the people", however not anymore, the S-Class is not a cab. Anything else you want to get shot down?
The V12 is a waste of money, only for those who *must* have the S65 instead of the S63. The S63 is otherwise lighter and actually more agile vs. the S65.
Understood, but at what cost is what I'm saying. And even then, the handling characteristics are crippled by the increased weight of the V12, so - unless you sort of fell into the vehicle - it's not worth the extra price, especially when brand new. Especially in these days of engine chipping, and I'd wager that S63 can be chipped to something that the S65 could never be, due to its weight ;)
I miss US. Car price there is so fucking cheap. In my country this car cost $370k. sometime when i see american complaining about how expensive car is, makes me want to give them a nudge.
So what if the A8 was produced later on what does that mean? I gather you have not driven an A8. I am not into stupid LED's that is for the Audi Newbies! I have been with Audi way before the lights or the movies. I am with Audi cause of Quattro, and out of the German big three it has the least problems. I have driven many S-Class's and they do not ride nice at all. Here in the NYC area they ride terrible! In America people love the Benz, not anymore - Audi is now #1.
Its real simple Audi, Benz, Bimmer - you own a Porsche your already with Audi - come on. The circus car was the Benz adding the LED's. Audi has always been on top! As for a big car that can handle - You bring that big washing machine and come and run my A8 in the rain, snow or on dry pavement - 4Matic good luck with that. Make sure your braking in the turns while I am accelerating. I drive everything - I know how every car handles and what their faults are.............. Talk to you later!
I just checked out your Channel, your an overseas hater I see...... A 280se nice old car, but be really those old things are like driving trucks. It took Benz so long to get up to date interior and it is still crappy. I have to say the new C-Class and E-Class feel cheap compared to the older ones they replaced.
Audi has never ever been on top of Mercedes. It's funny really, because I proved you wrong on the Audi vs. Mercedes S-Class months ago, yet you removed all my comments and never responded to my PM's. I mean the fact that this is praised as THE luxury car, the fact that Audi COPIED the air-suspension like system Mercedes has patents on and the fact that Mercedes has been developing the S-Class since 1955 means Mercedes wins it big time. Learn your automotive history, kid.
The A8 is a better car hands down it always has been. One thing that Audi invented which Mercedes cant is Quattro! Their 4Matic sucks! I like the this car a lot, but the ride quality is not there. This at least was a bigger Benz, I do like the older 600SEL's those were Benz's!
Audi is on top right now - I am waiting to run your Benz in the rain! Thats all I have to say. Dont care about patents and they have been built since 1955 dont care. That car is a CAB! You never proved me wrong today or yesterday. The Audi brings the attention and the street love that you will never know- cause you drive a Benz. Owning a Benz is not prestigious anymore, that car is so mainstream now. The E-Class created this years ago. 560SEC real car that was when Benz was Benz!
And the A8 has been around for what, introduced in 1993-1994, afaik. When was the S-Class introduced? 1951. One is the car, another is the heritage and history behind the car. The A8 has absolutely no history at all, other than "being an Audi". The S-Class? It pretty much bears the trophy of being the most innovative car in history. The A8 is far from that. It also depends on who you ask - if you ask an Audi salesman, the Audi is better. If you ask a Mercedes salesman, the Mercedes is better.
Talk about a gimmick - the copy of the LED's on the Benz. That looks like shit. Looks like a kid with a Honda put them on that car???? What were they thinking?
Hmmmm... Which car should I chose?!..... Hard to decide! Hm oh NO! I got the same Problem as you :D can't afford THE FUCKING seats ore the FUCKING Doors ore The fuel for this beast and the other cars :D
This is the year when they invented the ACTIVE BONNET BULLSHIT...actuator costs 3k euros new original, so you need 2 of theme if you hit a fucking dog, basicly 6k euro (7.5k dollars) bc of a dog...nice and the dog is alive btw, and i am talking about a C class from that same period
First off I am not an Audi Salesman, have you every driven an S-Class? The ride like shit really. The A8 can handle, it is the best handling large car hands down. The S-Class is running scared right now and Benz knows it has to come up with something better. Those LED add ons were terrible - looks like a Pep Boys upgrade! I dont know if you saw the S8's stats but that car is a killer. I saw some guy yesterday in an ugly S550 checking out the real deal and I just laughed! Audi is on top face it!
the technology in this car is over 6 years old,and still is the most advanced car in the world(this car is not a full option model,you can see it doest have electrical seats in the back,no tv in the back,no fridge etc...)the only car that can compare to this in only the audi a8 l with the rear monitors in the back and the folding seat...what a car,the new s class will be launched next year,at i just cant wait to see it
We just bought one and I'm loving it, with better factory rims. Thanks
I drove a S550 4 matic with night vision,cruise control braking,park assist,and lane assist with independent controls for all 4 seats, amazing the 2014 are about to come out with a new design, what more can be added to a car? music,lumbar,message seats, heated, cooled,next they will come with maids lol.

ELEGANT, BOSS VEHICLE. THIS BODY STYLE LOOKS LIKE ROLLING MONEY.🤑🤑🤑
This is good for driving my girl to school, seems she can have some good rest, and I can still have some fun
I can tell you love this car so much

Not anymore. The 6.2 has been replaced by a 5.5L, twin turbo V8.

My dad have the S400 its like the May Bach edition and I'm happy With it though...but I like sports car
That must be from Europe
Also might be worth noting that the S-Class has innovated such an amazing amount of features that are now standard in all cars. In return of that - Audi hasn't invented, at any point, as much as this car has.
Awesome vehicle
What are they going to do add more LED'S?
American people don't be upset:) you can make enough money to buy such a car.. I'm from Romania, so this is all i have to say
What? No. I don't think you get how turbos work. You still get the power normally, however when you hit a certain RPM, the turbos start to spool up and give you even more power. Does make the non-turbo lag feel like the car has less power, because of the huge power increase of the turbos. However there should only be power going up, not down by fitting them.

Sure does look like one, the Spec model!
If you're seriously pointing at the S-Class being a bad car, then you ought to be joking.
Also, in all honesty, with the huge list of Mercedes inventions such as the Airbag, ABS and three-point safety belt, I really don't think Mercedes would have the need to do an AWD, cheap 2 door car. Not saying the Quattro is a bad car, however it's in no way a possible thing to compare to Mercedes. Mercedes has just been around as a company for so much longer with such a great history.

The name 63 is a homage to the Mercedes-Benz M100 engine, no matter if the actual car right now has a 5.5, 6.2 or even a 6.3 engine :)
The S-Class is a bit more than a couple LED's.
Actually the LED's were an after thought. It looks like they added them from Pep Boys.
what engine on S class will you suggest for the better ratio between power and fuel economy?? i mean that S class must be powerful, but using a S65 everyday is not convenient even for a rich man, so what will be that engine which can offer biggest power for everyday using??

How are you correcting me? There is no mistake!
this car is so cheap. given US low interest rate for car financing. awesome.
OOO okay, I have a car for you the 6.9. Tell me about that one. It had a nice part in one of my favorite movies too.

add right now to the end of that
@Nikola Djuric Did you watch the video? I'm sure you did
NO 5.5 V8 it now has the 55 motor again! Not even the 6.2 that they called a 6.3 - The numbers once meant something for Mercedes, but not anymore.
GOOD URY. HOW DO YOU DO?" GRUBBY GLEAMING WHAT'S HAPPENING, GUYS. !!
What was this traded in for?
GO GOOOO GOOOO W221 mercedes s class
Maybe you can teach me - by sending me your videos that you have done on cars so I can learn from you! Not everything is about driving the car.
no only the C63 and SLS get the 6.2L V8. ever other 63 gets the 5.5l twin turbo V8

What are talking about, by the way I drive an A8
Yea but they're economy is going down the shitter, Perhaps imposing import duties on vehicles would have been a good idea after all ; )
Of course you would Mr. Audi Salesman....

No they didnt, but I tell you to shut up.
None of these engines come close to the "old" 5.4 Supercharged (55 AMG) engines..
