S63 has no negatives.
How does one vote for (or against) a rumor? Is it normally aspirated? Twin-turbo? How much boost? How much HP? Torque? Seven-speed, I assume? How much? Assuming it exceeds 600HP and costs $80K, I'll take two.

CLS63 while a nice car ,is in a different prestige and luxury league then the cars above.
Since the S63 comes with just a regular n/a V8 6.2,the difference in torque (already significantly higher in case of S55 vs S600)will be even more staggering (465 vs 610).
So my choice would be 600 for myself and FS for wife (marginally slower but 4wd is nice in Chicago Winter,especially for ladies).
Btw,picking up FS for wife in August(first '07 Mulliner) and keeping my first spot for CL65.

Bentley is easier to cooperate as far as options colors and customizing and most important factor :FS is the car SHE wants,she could care less about 0.5 sec better acceleration and would feel better driving an awd car here.
I'm waiting for CL but if I lose patience waiting for it, I'll take the S.
