S550 w/MBC for sale
I don’t know if this car has already been talked about here, but it looks very interesting. Since I have gone electric, I am no longer interested:

I'm very wary of black cars due to the upkeep, but that ruby color is quite elegant.
If this were Carmax, I'd scoop it up immediately for the warranty, even though we're looking at the S560.
Stream, why not pick it up for (relatively) cheap and have your favorite ever luxury sedan back?

Another problem is storage, I know for a fact he is keeping that R231 SL 450 MiniMouse and the E 450 wagon he has in the garage. So poor S-Class will just be sitting outside. He told us that he only has a 3 door garage which I assume the 3rd garage space is currently occupied by the i7.

I think they look amazing. I have grown to like them more and more and quite frankly I kinda regret not getting one, although I love my S580.

But yeah, it's very similar. I wonder what it'll go for.

I certainly understand wanting a new car (never been my interest, outside of EVs with the credits), but I do remember multiple MBC owners in the i7 comparison thread who said the i7 was nothing like it in terms of ride. The MBC demonstration videos are quite amazing. Stream's complaint about road noise being highly dependent on road surface is what I experienced in the previous gen 7, and my Lexus LS. MB does a better job equalizing road noise than anything I've driven. NVH is very challenging, and I trust MB over pretty much anyone. Speaking as a fan of modern BMWs too..
But yeah, it's very similar. I wonder what it'll go for.

I've never driven an S Class on MBC, but I am totally satisfied with the ride both my S Classes had/have and would be totally satisfied with the i7 too. I certainly wouldn't go back and drive a 10 year old car to get MBC over a new i7.

I second the opinion on a rock solid warranty. That uber low-mileage car is a nightmare just waiting to happen for the next owner. These cars are meant to be driven. That car is going to be a leaky nightmare with dried out gaskets and hoses and will have suspension and motor/trans mounts that will soon or are already failing due to dry rot.

Eww! This proves the old saying that beauty is in the eye of the beholder. Interestingly, I've been reading that BMW will soon be ditching that hideous mug due to most people finding it repulsive. The body shape looks like it could have been penned by Chris Bangle as it closely mimics the equally hideous E65's hopped up on steroids.

This generation 7 is also outselling the S Class for the first time ever, so more people like it than you think.

Its interesting because out in the world the car gets a lot of love vs online. I know several people who have them now, the guy 2 doors down from me has one, I have 3 friends and coworkers who have them. Every single one of them say they get more compliments on their 7 than any car they have ever owned. When my neighbor got his everybody was over there looking at it and admiring it, nobody had any interest in my S580. Just today one of my agents got a new Mustang Mach E and we were walking out to see it, a white i7 was parked and he pointed it out and said totally unprompted how much he loved that car.
