Why would you have to option Distronic to get Night Vision. The car includes every option available on the S except for those listed.

That is why I posed that condition as an "if" -- I don't think that I will have to add the Distronic (not desired by me)...but I remember reading somewhere earlier-on that Distronic was required/a requisite with Night Vision....

That's what I am saying for $180,000 dollars you would think the it would have every option available. I have never driven the S600 or the S65, but I have a hard time believing that the S65 is $40,000 dollars better than the S600 at least with the S600 you get every option included in the price. Off subject I watched the video about the S Class on Fifth Gear and all I can say is wow the S Class is one heck of a car. The voice recognition worked well and so did the adaptive cruise control. What a car!

Thumbs up Can Someone please Post link to 5th Gear or Top Gear Vid of S Class?

Can Someone please Post link to 5th Gear or Top Gear Vid of the new S-Class, particularly if there is a vid review of the all-new S 600 or S 65?

If there's only a video review of the S 550, still good though.


Thanks in advance :-)

If you go to www.youtube.com and search for 5th Gear or Top Gear, you'll find a lot!

I can't find anything about keyless go. It is not mentioned as standard equipment and it is not listed as an option. Does that mean that it is not available? That is almost too bizarre to even think about.

MBUSA has taken the price of the S65 off and put up TBA. Strange.

The $40k more is for the AMG badge on the back.

something fast
marco still haven't decided yet? the flying spurs are not selling well at all, I have already seen new cars discounted around $7-8k if not more. I would wait a few months and you should be able to buy both for a discount.
