New S-600 Upgrade soon?

Mercedes still has not introduced the SL with a V12 engine and the S class is going for a face lift this fall do you suppose we could see a new S-600 too with introduction of other SL cars?

Rumor is that a new V12 Twin Turbo will be used in the S-600.

Yes I did analyze that after when i booked my 760Li and checked the specs which read 400 Bhp according to my dealer so I was dead sure MB will make major changes to the 600 engine series cars probably the CL | S and SL... I really wonder if the S class would get tratment like the new E class- Eg. A panoramic roof But Im puttin my 99 % bets on the S 55 n S 600 gonna be upgraded. Keepin my fingers crossed Wish they have something like 450 + bhp in the V12 That would burn the BMW although I like both I still love competetion It just gives us better stuff

I don't know about the new SL, although I would assume so. The new twin turbo V12 engine is on the S600...
