S65 is too expensive. if u want that kind of power u mite as well buy a Golf 1 like me for about R15 000 and spend some cash on turbos and super chargers and you easily beat that S65. My Golf 1 will drop anything. what a waste of money these peeps and their M3s and M6s and AMG. if i had that kind of cash id buy a brand new Velocity 1.6 fit all the new electrics with turbos and NOS and it will only cost around R150k so y waste that kind of cash on BMs and Mercs. Golf 1 still the best looking car with the best power. |
Yes Bimmaman, en when you woke up you pissed yourself in you bed!!! |
Bimmaman is a such nutcase,330i for an s65,i mean realy..js how do u beat over 400kw of power with about 200kw of your 330i..u guys have to think before you talk sometimes,perhaps the guys was js driving normaly n u was racing so picture this: a normal drive for an s65 looks like its racing to you,now how's dat for a poewerful insane mucle luxury saloon.. |
Yes bimmaman, yesterday I smoked one with my 1.3 Chico.... |
bimmaman - Are you sure this guy knew you where trying to 'smoke' him? People can sometimes talk so much #$%$ on this wesite. |
Some people argue what’s the point of a car like this (Me included) but I cannot help but be drawn to insane muscle Luxury Saloons from Merc (Then again a lot of cars are pointless on today’s roads). The Thought of 1000NM just is insane. Insane Power. With such Torque your literally stand still and accelerate the earth beneath u. Wonder how much Torque it can produced if there was no limiter. Pity about the Gearbox. Merc should sort that out. Otherwise Merc oozes MUSCLE!!! |
These things are too slow. I just smoked a S65 with my 330i. The oke inside looked scared of me as I shot past him. |
As ANON 8h15 stated, and to all that have critisized Audi. These LED's are becoming compulsary. As with bikes that have to have their lights on ALL the time, the same is happening to cars. It just adds to safety as idiots can't say.."aaahhh, I didn't see you coming". I agree with all of you about the 63's rims. Mercs need big fat spokes/arms on their wheels. The skinny spokes were never intended to be on a Merc, other than an old 300SL. |
PETER, if you think this is 'utterly pointless', you should not be reading motoring columns. Tell us: what car is NOT pointless in your view? What do YOU drive? Have you considered that maybe YOU are 'utterly pointless'? Where's your spirit? Really sad... |
When BMW M7 arrives it really is going to have its work cut out for it to match this beast. |
probably the only car you can be driven in and also drive yourself, without looking like you borrowed it or are a yuppy trying to look classy. The best balance between majestic class and individual independence. Only Jaguar has managed to come close, but not as majestic as this. BMW will probably never succeed, and Audi should keep trying. This is the best limo in the world. |
Stunning, but I won't want to be driven around in one of these monsters - I would want to DRIVE it. Mercedes Limos - where the chauffeur enjoys the drive more than the passangers...
|
Those S63 mags just don't suit the car, the other mags are better and who will buy the S63 when there is the S65 available? Good, solid cars from Merc, a friend of mine has the pre-face lift S65, so I know how it drives, but those christmas lights...not so sure about them, pity there isnt a Audi or BMW to compete with here. |
S65 FOR ME ANYDAY. |
Merc builds them because S class sales are high enough that a user base exists for them. Were audi or bmw able to sell half as many A8s or 7 series' as merc sells S class models, they too would be pumping out the performance models too |
I wouldn't mind being driven around in the S65. Don't like the rims on the S63. |
The LEDs are due to euro NCAP requirements. Significant point are deducted if daytime running LEDs are not present on the car. Any idiot knows this but then wheels24 commenters seem even less endowed... |
Stunning........... |
The jackhammer of all vibrator's! At least Merc have the balls to still make machines that ignite the human sole. |
This is absolutly badass. To have a laptimer in your S-class is brillant!!!! you just got to love it. Heard the SL65 amg pull away from a stop street quite quick, the sound is amazing..... and the it was gone. Does this qualify for a modern day mucsle car? Hells yes!!!! |
Absolutely hilarious Merc still lets AMG do this stuff, where is the RS8 or M7 from the other Germans? |
S63 multispokes too busy for me, like the S65 wheels, new grille and lights don't work for me. Engines still madder than mad for a luxury car range. |
Utterly pointless and the LEDs are ghastly, but heroic none the less. |
