Last I heard from my sales guy (about a week ago) was that their *soft date* was in late october. This can still change, mind you, but I'd expect we see the first pics and specs sometime in June or July.. It's going to be an amazing car!

I have had a deposit down on an S 63 for about two years and I'm told the expected delivery date is in February of 07. The S 65 will be out first and indeed some people have already taken delivery.

I still have a deposit on the S63 but given that the S65 is coming out sooner, like this summer, I am going to opt for the S65. However, if reviews in terms of handling and 63 TT are true I will opt for the 63TT later down the road.

who told you that the new s63 will have a turbocharged engine? from everything I heard and read I can say that it will have the same engine as the cls, E, ML and R-Class.

IMO, S/CL/SL63 will be hugely disappointing w/the weaker and high-RPM torque of NA 63 motor.....esp to those already accustomed to spectacular low RPM torque of 55 motors.....and, let's face it, 95%+ of potential 55/63 buyers can't/won't want to spend an added (and fast-depreciated) $60K to get a 65.....
