An ugly S class makes me feel so much better about myself cus I can't afford it and it is so ugly, so it is a wash.

I'm attracted to the exterior, but I have to grow on the interior, and in the mean time I'd enjoy the AMG motor in the version I would buy

It's rare for me to see a new car and fall deeply in love with it, I'm a bit hesitant to change, but most changes in the automotive industry are for good, not just aesthetically, phsyically also.

they got some nastiest rims right on there.
remind me of 1st generation hyundai XG300 rims.
pretty damn nasty.

and why the hell BMW and MB make their high end car so fat??
7 series looked best when they were slim, and S class has full of unique and timeless design right now, but this next gen design is wanna be bangle and looks like design is gonna get played out very soon.

I read up on the article and the S500 will have a MUCH better V8 responding with 388hp instead of the 302 from the current version

and the S600 will have a N/A V-12 with 512 hp



wowzer that's going to be great!!!! I MUST HEAR SOMETHING FROM AMG!!!!!!!

Look at that 7-Series wanna-be rear armrest with 7-Series wanna-be I-drive controller, friking car looks like barf, just incohesive bits and pieces bolted together

At least the 7-series design flows inside and out, regardless of whether or not anyone actually liking the design.

Ben-Z's just don't have the appeal their 3-pointed star used to carry no more slapping together hyundai design with useless tech (senso-brake?), and tyre-shredding power is no compensation for out-dated chassis dynamics, poor reliability (last gen ML??), and revolting aesthetics

Actually i have, I have owned a 208 CLK430 and traded for a 209 CLK55, both drive like shit, plough like a mother, ride is neither compliant nor the handling good, costs arm and a leg to maintain (check ur local dealer for a B-service quote, and then see what they actually do to your car, jack shit, or try replacing O2 sensors after warranty), non-stop electronic problems . . . . . . . what MB have you owned in the last 10 yrs? I was unsure about both the car's styling to begin with, but found them to be hideous after time pasts. My new X5 that I traded the 209 for drives better.
