Detailed YouTube tour of the V12 Mercedes-Benz S600
4 years on and the W222 S-Class still looks the part with many features still lacking on luxury cars today.
Please have a look and let me know what you think.
Thanks very much
1) the engine make a lively noise (voom) at a muted volume (<pianissimo>voom)
2) the engine is so buttery smooth that no V8 will ever satisfy me again.




I bought the 63 because it is more practical for me in Chicago (20k miles/year, a lot of it in snow and rain) with it's superior traction.
However, it does not even come close to 65 in the level of smoothness, refinement and the way it responds (never any hesitation, jerkiness or transmission "confusion") to every throttle input (..and that is the true luxury not just the amount of leather or wood in the interior).

Indeed the 2nd hand S600s are a bargain. For the amount of options, tech and comfort you get it still unparalleled. Unfortunately, the bargain prices aren't good for the owners
