I usually laugh and politely ask them to stay in their lane.
There are a lot funny posts here. Never drove or own a big body coupe but post like your opinion matters.
C'mon. Typical Mercedes old-school elitist attitude. Times have changed buddy, Mercedes now makes mostly small cars priced much lower that look just like that "big body coupe". Their volume leaders worldwide (starting in U.S now even) are FWD econoboxes.

I'm sure many naysayers of "expensive" Mercedes' love Ferrari's, Lamborghini's, Rolls, some Bentley's, Bugatti, etc. etc. I love most expensive cars, many that are way more expensive than an S Coupe, which isn't THAT damn expensive to garner hate because it's so out of reach (you can likely get the same design on the upcoming C and probably E Coupe's as well). Plus you'll probably see classic Mercedes discounts making it attainable under the 6 figures.

Every time something like this comes up, people get all uppity about their wealth on Mercedes boards. C'mon, fake diamond patterns and Swarovski crystals (which aren't even expensive really, I don't get the point, which is why I think it's so cheesy, much like the light up grille Star accessory) aren't really the epitome of "rich".

I think there would be a bigger argument on this forum if they were standard.
But we all know that this is one option that an S coupe buyer can not skip.

I also find it funny how that fragrance atomizer is only like $350, and heated steering wheel $400. These should be standard. I know if I was running Mercedes and launching a brand new S class, I'd make the fragrance option standard on all S classes.

"Diamond pattern this, cheesy light-up Star that, fake scoops this, Swarovski Crystals that.....". I can't believe they put crystals in their lights. I don't think tasteful and sophisticated buyers will respond to that stuff as much as the braggart Hip Hop and Paris Hilton clientele that M-B seem to be depending on to keep promoting their products through Pop Culture (hence why I think they're doing this stuff).
you are a tough man to please lol

I do like the nose of the production model better and the AMG rear bumper looks great

Why on earth are you still here on this thread, wasting your time?
I have a phobia of fat chicks but I don't spend ANY time on threads or chats praising the benefits of plus size women.......

K-A has turned out to be a simple hater but doesn't seem to contribute anything but enflaming remarks. A waste of everybody's time...

I don't see his posts anymore since he is on my ignore list except when other others quote him. Hint: Please don't!

Nothing new guys. Read every post - he's the expert on every car that comes out - yet owns none of them. I also can tell you that Lexus is a piece of garbage, but why would you listen to me if I don't actually own it.

Stupid really. He's always been a waste of time, but the joys of Americana is that he is free to post what he wishes and we are free to ignore.

I was expecting to trade my S sedan on this. I am going to do it.

Order guide should be out in May. Definitely Sport, Premium, Driver assistance & heated panels.

May go Iridium Silver/Bengal Red or stick with Mag Black & go saddle brown on the interior

Some poster (praise be) mentioned the "ignore" option. Now I'm free of K-A. Thanks to the poster (don't recall who) that drew my attention to the "ignore" option.

Life is sweet again.

I think the coupe is the one to get as well.

Sounds like they also have the coupe in 4matic which will make this a nice winter car...
They also have a new tech in where the cars leans into the curve (by 2.5 degrees).

Here is a nice picture gallery. Sorry, in German

Funny. Those retracting seat belt guides is exactly what was in the old W126 S-Class coupe in the 80' (sans aluminum look). Very retro...

After my 991TTS was totaled in December I almost bought S63 my dealer just got.
I took E63S factory demo instead with $20k discount,thrown new Sottozeros,etc, thinking it would be a lesser hit in the Fall when possibly trading for the S63 Coupe.
It was the right decision.....

Love the sedan. & in the past, I liked the CL, but was not blown away to pay more to essentially get less. This is such a beautiful car. I will enjoy the S-Class Sedan for 2014 & prob keep the coupe for a lil bit

4-MATIC is standard on the Coupe.

Not Clear if active curve is standard. Seems like it is along with a sport exhaust with flaps.

Standard equipment:
19” wheels, KEYLESS-GO with HANDS-FREE ACCESS
Air Balance Package
mbrace2
PARKTRONIC with Active Parking Assist
COLLISION PREVENTION ASSIST PLUS
MAGIC VISION CONTROL
touchpad for operation of the headunit.

Options:
multi-contour front seats with hot stone massage
Sport Package featuring aggressive AMG styling with either a 19” or 20” AMG wheels
DISTRONIC PLUS with Steering Assist

We'll I've owned more than you, as daddy doesn't always buy me a new generation S Class every 7 years. Sounds kinda boring anyway.
