S65 AMG
DB,
My local Dealer tells me that there aren't that many S65's around. AMG makes about 400-500 a year for global consumption and about 100 are sold in the US every year. Thus it is a very rare and special car and with so few numbers most Warranty Companies do not bother with it.
I am not sure where you are buying the car (PP or Dealer) but once you locate a car contact local MB Dealer with the info on car (VIN, mileage, etc.) and they will quote you rates (similar to what I posted above) for a reputable company, one in which they accept and charge to directly with no hassle.
Good luck.

This is great information regarding
a working relationship between the
Dealership and a warranty company -
Even without The Mothership in my
driveway I will be checking on this
