Thus my comment: "No good deed goes unpunished." He simply misread the post. And I assume he now knows that.
We are all so stressed these days and hair-trigger reactive. "Punch me (or not) and I'll punch back harder."
So, on behalf of all us old farts everywhere, I wanted to commend you for your positive response.
Again, good for you and a good example for all of us on the forum.
Necessary Edit: A friend asked me why I commended hyperion667 for being discourteous to SW20S. I did not. I commended him for not striking back when someone was discourteous to him. I did not like nor do I support hyperion667's post to SW20S, or SW20S's posts to Lou B, or Lou B's post to hyperion667. To me the posts were rude and showed a lack of consideration for fellow forum members. We have come together here in fellowship, in the spirit of sharing and learning, and no one deserves our disrespect.

Yes, I agree that wasn't the case and that's why I felt bad when I read his response. You were trying to helpful.

I have had 3 S-Sedans, all with ABC (last one has Magic Body Control, with cameras, etc.). Looked for the current (used, loaded) car for 2 years. To experience what the hydraulic suspension brings to the vehicle, you need to drive one, back to back, with one with pneumatic suspension. Ideally, drive both the standard S class and the AMG-both with pneumatic suspension. IMHO, there is NO COMPARISON, especially the latest MBC, with curve control capabilities. My current 2015 with MBC is phenomenal in all aspects. Goes like crazy (almost scares me), stops extremely well, handles curves with aplomb and is an Engineering Masterpiece.
I don't know beans about AMG cars except that I understand they're expensive, with big engines, and fast. My initial post, responded to pretty snidely by several, was simply to learn about the AMG ride. Thanks to a couple of more kindly folks, who seem more mature in their responses, I now have an adequate understanding to my initial query.
My apologies to all whom I may have offended,if any, and to those to whom my initial query wasn't clear, thus eliciting a snide, to me, response.

All Cars Lost To Hurricane Isaac (W124 E420 revived - added 88 Allante 14 S550, 17 S63
Have both.. I prefer the non-amg.. smoother, more quiet, and no slouch... my AMG garage queen is fun to "drive" every now and then... I've owned three S-AMG's... so go figure...... but I realize I am an s600 type of guy... if I could have the power thrills, in total quiet and super smooth, my world would be perfect ...
