Sedan vs coupe
I'm on my sixth s class sedan-- all bought used, driven to about 90,000 miles and replaced with a low mileage newer model. Now, I'm interested in something like the s coupe.
How do the sedan and and coupe compare as daily drivers? A few years ago I test drove a cls but found it to be too small. When I looked at an s coupe, the back seat was pretty much useless for me, but I no longer need that rear room. Does the coupe ride like the sedan? How about ride noise?

I love the coupe personally. A friend has an S65 sedan and its nice, but the interior of my coupe kills it in my opinion. Its such a great place to be. The coupe gives you a different vibe. Both are great and will make you happy, but I'm team coupe!

If the rear seats are for 'occasional use only'... coupe all the way!
Just a stunning platform that you won't see yourself on the road everyday ;-)

Further, now that S class coupe/cabriolet production is terminated they both will some day be collectibles.
As evidence witness pricing on 71-74 S class coupe/cabriolet.
The same can't be said for the sedan!!
My opinion.

As long as you don't need the rear seat for riders, coupe is the answer IMHO. It is definitely not a family car as the rear seat is extremely difficult to access for adults.

I go back and forth. They are the only ICE cars I am interested in. I favor the coupe because of the shorter length, don't need the ridiculous amount of rear leg room. The coupe is probably one of the most beautiful cars made but I do like the traditional sedan look as well. The things I like about the sedan is the more upright seating position, visibility and more open feeling interior.
