285 KW for the S500 lame! No power upgrade, although I'm sure it gets a bit better return in efficiency.
Anyways it looks great! Especially the AMG treatment.

fortuner has a spectacular aura aboutfortuner has a spectacular aura about
I am in shock at how good the facelift looks both inside and out i expected the car to look newer or fresher but this is juat amazing to think its just minimal and small changes and MB has made the king of the road even better sad to say but this facelift makes my dads S350 look a bit old.
The front is so awesome those leds are perfect the grill and headlights just WOW.Why couldnt the e class have a simalar designed led styling.

The rear is awesome those new lights bumper and rear arch just seem perfect for each other its a awesome way they all gel together.

THE interior what can i say i think this interior belongs in a car like a maybach it is just awesome those pics off the S600 are just fantastic.

That brownish s600

YES the king is BACk and is the leader off the pack for shure...
I think the engines are all fine and dont need a upgrade as yet except maybe the S350.

Well done MB be proud off the great facelifted Sclass WOW.

IN my view the best luxury car in the world no doubt.......

Official: S Class Facelift

I think it deserves it's own thread, so i'm, opening new one. To be fair to Tarek, i've chosen his post to be the 1st one since he posted the 1st official pics and i've also moved all your posts after Tarek's to new thread.

Let the drooling continue here...

Stunning. Just stunning, this has to be the best FL ever for an MB. Didn't change much, as usual, but here it makes one hell of a diference!!

Only complaint: they didn't improve the storage compartments in the center console. Besides that it's absolutely amazing.

The colours are gorgeous, too...

WOW!!What a car!

I have to say that they've corrected everything I ever had a problem with as far as the exterior is concerned... a marvellous job. Still not digging the dash, though.

But I've always been bugged by the storage-compartments in the center console, below the heaters/clock.

The shutline is a tad too big, too obvious, and they look slightly plain. I hoped they could reduce the deadspace and make them fit more nicely into the dash. However, it's really nitpicking here!

My other complaint is the rear wheelarch, bit too much for my taste. This fantastic brown hides that well though, and the new bumpers harmonize better with these wheelarchs.

The FL is really fantastic... only these double-fogs, really MB should stop with it. It's a gorgeous car, this FL really changed the game.

Looks amazing! Not sure if these have been posted. Are there two set of led's, one in the front bumper and one in the main headlights or are the ones in the main headlights turn signals?
