S-Class (W222/C217/A217) [Official] Mercedes-Benz S-Class Coupé Facelift (C217) 2017-

[hoffmeister_fan]

Not feeling the AMG grille. I'd be very, very happy with a S560 Cabrio.

It's a very subtle update which I am very happy about as the S - coupe and cabriolet are stunning cars that didn't need any changing. The new AMG panamericana grill looks good in my opinion but it will take some taking getting used to as it's a new styling theme for AMG and Mercedes sports models

Lovely video the S63 looks Killer in the video...Love it.

The panamericana grill looks better when the grill is inverted (wider at the bottom than the top) IMO, like in the gt-r/gt-c rather than the s-coupe/glc

 

[AndreB]

Best looking version in my opinion is the S560, fresh, clean, elegant!

S63 looks like a bad render from a while ago, uninspired, too much bling-bling, give me the old S63.

The basic version is a bit of lazy attitude from MB. While the bumper of previous AMG line is nice, it lacks freshness and crispness.

Worst thing is that you can’t get a rear-drive S560, wtf they are thinking

S63 AMG is a tad gaudy I have to say. Whatever happened to the understated class and elegance that was once the sole preserve of Mercedes Benz? Just too flashy in my opinion. Sorry.

Clever. The photo shoot was done on the top level car park of the Frankfurt Messe. The home of the IAA.

Have you guys seen the Panamericana grill in person? It's much more subtle than photos suggest.

Is this replacing the 7 series Sako?

It'll be the replacement for my beloved 6er GC with an identical color combination:

lol, you needn't explain sako97, I was being lighthearted.

It is a superb car.

S63 AMG Yellow Night Edition1. Looks more aggresive IMO.

 

[klier]

LMAO. Go fast decals on an S class.
So freaking sad.

Grille - ugly
wheels - ugly
bumpers - very, very ugly.
hood shutline - worst

Only thing I like are the new rear light graphics.

S63 AMG Yellow Night Edition1. Looks more aggresive IMO.

Yes, looks that way. But does a S Klasse need to look agressive? Call me old fashioned, but in my book a S Klasse (sedan/coupe/cabrio) looks elegant, sleek and a tad reserved.

Mine is sitting in Hannover waiting to be shipped home with potential motor damage....

I was right... there was something more wrong with it than multiple faulty spark plugs.

I don't know what is the right answer...The S class is luxury model and S63 is a full AMG, not like E43 or C43. BMW has M sport version of 7er, Audi S version of A8 instead of RS. So is S63 a luxury S class with a big AMG engine or is it a full AMG? If it is a full AMG, does it feel like an AMG in terms of interior, exterior, handling, driving, perfomance etc?

Welcome to the new Kardashian way of life.

Yes. And that "Yellow Night Edition" model embodies my personal perception of the phrase "the cost of purchase does NOT guaranty CLASS". Pretentiously juvenile.

And yet, M-B market strategists are certainly no fools and I assume that they are convinced that the above mentioned or similar specification will find eager takers. Whether the character of elegance is diminished or not will be a consideration inferior to that of monetary revenue.
