'03 S class with what engines ?
I assume s430 will be discontinued since they'll offer e500,
but what about s55 (kompressor maybe?) and what about s600?
Are they going to give it twinturbo v12?
I don't believe they'll continue this piddling 360hp v12 in face of
400+hp Bmw 760? would they?
If they do uprate the engines ,when will they be available?
This fall or after e55k is introduced?

You sure they would phase out the S430? No way. Its powerful and really efficient. They just phased out the S320 in 2000 so it wouldn't make sense. But we will know in 4 weeks when the Canadian dealers get their training on the new E & S for 2003.

They are keeping the S430, it is one of the top sellers for the S-Class since it is very cost effective, yet still has plenty of power.

Sean I was assuming that since they removed it from the E / M class and the S 320 and 320 CDI are still available here in EU thanx for the reply though
