Just got mine 5 days ago. Traded 06 Audi A8L W12. Had a lot of problems with the Audi. Hope the MB will be better...so far it is.

Beautiful car and nice pics also. As can drive 55 says...love the color.. Based on my over 6 months of ownership, you will not be bothered by any bugs or problems...my car has been perfect since delivery.

Enjoy in good health.

Black or White: I'm in love with both cars. For sunny places like St. Petersburg/FL or Palm Springs white would be my favorite color.

For Switzerland you may have to search for your car in wintertime...

Congratulation and all the best!

Actually, I think white in winter would look pretty amazing!! Just good luck with people not seeing your car.

Question

Hey beautiful car, congrats. I am a black car man myself but I feel the S-class looks absolutely stunning in white (as seen by n.j.'s captivating photos). My question is, what do you think of the two twelve cylinder engines in a compare and contrast sorta way?

P.S. are there any member pics of a designo white s-class?

Audi W12 & MB S600

The Audi is a fast powerful vehicle but not in the same league with the S600...doesn't have the hp or torque.

I posted some observations as a new thread. "Audi A8L W12 Vs MB S600...Some Observations." Take a look.

Thanks...I didn't see it. I gathered that the s600 would be more powerful than the W12, expcially considering it pushes a 5.5L 510 hp engine with 600 ft-lb of torque, compared to the 6.0L 450 HP 428 ft-lb of torque, respectively. I was just curious from the driver point of view how they felt under normal driving (of course for many of us normal means spirited ..... I will look at the other thread, thnx.
