I saw a w221 S65 last night at around 9 pm on Mequon road about 8 minutes away from Bayside, WI. Anybody's here? It was black. Beautiful car.

Yeah, AMG must be doing pretty well. Yesterday, I saw a CLS55 and an R63. The CLS had the 5-spoke wheels, and it looked amazing, better than it does in pictures. The C215 CL65 is still the best looking Mercedes, as well as the R230 SL65.

I was driving side be side for about 2 miles with a new 07 S65 Black AMG a few miles from my home on route 7 in Northern VA. I wanted to race him but the guy was old -- mid/late 60s with his wife.

I am sure they were joking about me driving the low HP poor mans AMG. That car was increadible looking. $190K ...crazy.

Man, that's exactly the kind of guy driving the one I saw. He looked about 55-60, stuffy looking sweater, big glasses and everything. (no offense if you're on here.) The funny thing is, there was about 3 other old people in the car, guess they were going to a party, lol. Like somebody else on here said, can't remember who, rich guys buy the 65 only because it's more $ than the 600.
