A review by Autocar, this time driven in UK (so RWD version with Magic Body Control). Quite positive.
The Mercedes S63 AMG wants for nothing, although there is, predictably a myriad pricey options. But it is hard to think of the S63 AMG in pragmatic terms.
The truth is, if you want to travel in unparalleled comfort and refinement, then a cooking S-class, an S350 or an S500 would be slightly better. And an E63 AMG would better serve those looking for traditional super-saloon thrills.
However, the S63 AMG is simply one of the world’s best cars with one of the world’s best performance engines. And it’s hard to argue against it.

They look great to me!
That said BMW, Audi and Mercedes have become far less imaginative with their wheels in the last few years. Just a couple of years ago they were knocking them out the park, BMW and Audi in particular.

Another trip to Albania in the S65, Bentley Mulsanne, and the Rolls Royce Ghost.
That is, if they haven't been banned from entering Albania ever again.
TG show us probably not going to be worth much as a review. They will likely just find stuff to make a fun script, and maybe Clarkson will make fun by comparing it to a house on wheels (comfort), try to fool its speech recognition etc.

5 stars in Auto Express after a first drive in UK this time:
The Mercedes S63 AMG is hard to beat as the ultimate expression of Mercedes luxury and performance. It feels better suited to high-speed cruising than tackling more demanding roads, but the incredible refinement and straight-line speed make it a stealthy alternative to cars like the Bentley Flying Spur. Although there are a few dynamic flaws, the flagship AMG is a mouth-watering ownership prospect – if you can afford it.
