I'm curious to know how many of my car were made for the US market.


Does anyone have the categorical figures? It seems after a certain year mercedes pulled their figures off the internet.

If anyone have Any W221 Sales/Production Figures I would greatly appreciate it.

Minimally optioned black 2007 S550's are a dime a dozen. They shipped more of those here than any other W221 model. S550's with the rear seat pkg, Distronic Plus, and Night Vision are hard to find. S600's and AMG's are even harder to find. So if you're looking for donor parts for your donor car, you shouldn't have too much trouble finding them.

Thats the reason I choose my basic S. Less to go wrong, and when it does its easier to fix.

Its like the civic of the S series.

Besides parts advice, does anyone have any real figures?

In 2007, there were 26,081 S-classes sold in the US. In 2008, there were only 17,787. Sales always peek the 1st year of new model production run.

For example, in 2012 there were 11,794 US S-class sales. For 2014 with the new body style, there were 25,276 sold. 2015 sales were lower.

Where are you finding these stats? Are the 2007 sales inclusive to all W221s?

I talked to my old friend Al Gore who whispered them in my ear. It was supposed to be kept a secret, but what the hell. It's not like he and I agree on the man-made global warming farce anyway.

Those stats are all S-class model sales in the US in 2007.
