Who's driven one?

What are some must have options?

What wheels do you like?

My Dad gave me the catalog and told me to order him a V-12.....but I haven't seen that many on the road.....has anyone seen the metallic black?

Any feedback would be appreciated.

Thanks.

Hi Gmbh6,

I personnally would not go for the MB S 600. Its rediculously heavy and goes around corners like a pregnant horse. I would go for the MB S 500. You will save a lot of cash if your go for the MB s500. Then again you wont have a v12.

Both MB are VERY comfortable to drive with the hydralic air suspension and massive seats and the sheer power on straight roads.

Who drives these cars?
Well the car is for executive people.
If you get the LANG version you should have your own driver=) hehe

The MB S 600 has almost everything you can get in standard. Here is a few extras to think about.


Interior:

- air-con in the back seats (with personnel switches)
- panarama roof (nice)

Exterior:

- AMG styling package (without the wheels please)
- Extra protection under the car ( 200 bucks)
- for rims I would prefer carlsson or brabus.
They cost a bit more but they are awesome.

these are europe specs. If you live in a cold place with four seasons then your dad may think about the electroniclly heated steering wheel.

Cheers,
Mike

That is the way to go, my brother is probably going to get it.
We did drive the S550 and I came away impressed, MBZ did a reall good job with it. They only had the regular black as a demo so I cant help you with the color.
Seen the S65 at the auto show and its loaded. I say def. go with the S65 over the S600.
