New Mint S600

What's up guys. TFigured I needed some thing ultra big and luxurious to make me love my XKR or next toy more...

So after much deliberating on what car to get as a daily driver, double date car, clients and the occasional road trip I have finally pulled the trigger.

Looked at:
New Equus
10' S550
10' E550
09' A8
500E

And my final choice was this absolutely mint 94' S600. She is gorgeous inside and out and drives like new as well. While I want the sleeper understated look on my daily car I loathe how far in these 16's sit. I'm ordering some 18's asap!

88k. I'm getting used to the tank propelled as a hovercraft feeling when driving!

1999 S500 Grand Edition
Beautiful car!

I would get the wood stearing wheel to accent that perfect interior. My S500 has the 18" AMG wheels. I think that causes the suspension to wear faster. I had to do a lot of work there ($3k front/back so far and another $2800 for rear struts if I choose to do it.) I had very few suspension problems/expenses with my S420 which had 150k miles on it when it was destroyed in a wreck.


Good luck,


Mark
