2015 S65 AMG
Went to a local car meet over the weekend. Beautiful car..not so much the wheels but the inside of his car is super nice. I didn't even realize the 2015 S65's were V8's.
The other thing - when he started the car it didnt make a sound at all?? Like the lexus hybrids - when you start them you don't hear anything. The only reason I knew it was even on is because I could see the belt going around under the hood. I asked him about it just to make sure I did just see the car start and he said you cant hear anything at all when you start it. Very interesting.
And there there was ol' yeller.

That was likely a rebadged S63. The S65 still has the 6.0 V12 biturbo motor that's been around since 2003.

I didn't look at it that close besides taking those few pics but looking at it now in the pics, the front facia also is not that of an S63 or S65 nor are the rear exhaust tips! The engine cover is not an amg either! Must have painted it...Hmmm....??
Silly me believing him...I guess I should read up on the W222's in case I run across another S65 "in progress".

lol - well it is a v12 biturbo - my new V12 badges will be in soon.
and the amg wheels are just wheels - I didnt slap an S65 badge on the back
Maybe I should put an S400 hyrbid badge on and make it a sleeper. :-)

poser with a 550.
why even bother? have it debaged, tuned with some downpipes and aggressive wheels and call it a day... you will gain far more street cred vs pretending to be something the car is not

The original W222 S65 looks like what my avatar looks .
In this case it's like the owners buys a white gold 116509 Rolex Daytona and make it look like Platinum 116506 Rolex Daytona with lack of cerachrome bezel
