Depends on the s class. SL models, S500-600 S AMG models all to me drive different. Personally rather have 2 E63 AMG S' than a large S class model.

Yeah, I found that the SL model of the S Class is, in many respects, almost like a totally different vehicle. I can't quite put my finger on it, but the SL versions of the S Class always look and feel much, much smaller than the other versions.

One SL S Class I took out was so poorly built THE ENTIRE ROOF AND BACK SEAT WAS MISSING!!!

WTF Mercedes? That's why I stick to the S500 version of my S550 instead, despite the fact that there's no such thing as that either.

Even the S550 S600 are different. Bring into the discussion the AMG 63 or 65 another different experience.

Really? Different models of the S Class are different? Holy crap! I had no idea this was going on. I thought Mercedes just randomly assigned numbers to S Classes as they were being made, depending on how many letter and number badges they had on hand at the moment.

Like when I saw an S55 once I just presumed they had run out of "0"s.

Yeah, until you came none of us had never heard of an SL S Class. We dumb ****s thought the SL was a completely different car.

Yes, increased penile sensitivity is a side effect of Sorecockus Syndrome. It's also marked by reduced cognition and delusions. Some sufferers of Sorecockus Syndrome have been known to imagine models of cars that don't exist and then opine on their driving impressions of the imaginary cars.

Very sad. No known cure. Treatment is usually a series of temporary bans followed by a permanent one.

Let's leave both my wife and your wife/my girlfriend out of it.

PS

Your wife is not actually "bowling" on Monday, Wednesday or Friday nights. Honestly, who comes back from "bowling" at 3 AM with a sore butt?

You, you're so used to going to a bar and flipping the bar stool upside up so you can sit on one if the legs. Your amusing mikey.

Christ. Upside "up"? The joke is, "how do you get four gay guys on a bar stool? You turn it over." Stay sharp Junior. The 221 forum is the big leagues.

Here's my joke. How do you get four Cocksaureses on a bar stool? You don't, because none of them are old enough to drink.

W126 500SEC (Monster, heavily modified) MY10 C200 CGI (Daily)
I've driven a few 221s, namely an S600 I remember, they are miles ahead in comfort than other models, in general from each chassis or era, they S class is always nicer to drive. Hell. Even my W126 500 SEC with hard sports suspension and race camshafts is more comfortable than my W204 C200. Weird but true.

If the backwards car seat is your reason to look for a change you are just looking for excuses. You simply want an s class. Look at yourself in the mirror. You want one. Go get it and stop orbiting in a decaying fashion the s class
