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

[lukeswiss]

If you drive this car, the last thing you think about is to drift it.

It’s a powerful cruiser, you glide along, ride the torque wave.

For spiritual driving it’s way too heavy.

I test drove the 500, even this had issues with the traction, the 63 however pulls like a train.

It’s a perfect car for the autobahn.

I took the S63 on a track, cannot recommend. That poor boat didn't know what hit it.

217?
I am not surprised, the best Mercedes Benz for the racetrack is probably a C190 GT.

Just sensational. The coupe facelift is extremely rare, made for only 1.5 years. This S65 AMG V12 facelift with full options is just......wow

One of the finest car Mercedes has produced, beautiful inside and out. Back in the days when Mercedes wanted and acutally created the best Mercedes they could, when the top of the line Mercedes has more engine cylinders than the number of star motifs plastered all over the car.

I did as well, took a S63 coupe on the track, it was very easy to break traction and power oversteer out of the corners.

The RHD S63 were only RWD as far as I know.

My most desired car.
They need to make a new one.

Without Gorden everything is possible, he preferred the EQS to the S coupes.

Freshly spotted S63 just then

And the S65 a week ago

I was trying to envision a W223 version (C218?) of the S coupe but realized that they will add a zillion stars across the exterior and add the rather gauche star light graphics in the head and tail lights.. what a fall from grace that would be…..

How would these fair as a future modern classic? Expensive and tedious to maintain? Reliability?

 

[Centurion]

Is that black with a hint of burgendy and diagonal fleck?

Definitely one of those rare cars I'd keep for life; I think the associated costs would be worth it.

Yes, I believe the colour is called ruby black.
