The New 2018 S65 Coupe just 8 allocations for US
If anyone has a hard time to get a 2018 S65 Coupe please let me know. I have one in that can still be changeable.

Really hard to believe those are hard-to-get allocs
Easy to get '18/'19 65 builds in LA/SF: a rather niche, fast-depreciating, crap 24mo lease terms car among a few repeat buyers (like self)
But also know several repeat 65 buyers who already moved on to (far cheaper 24mo lease terms) 991TTS Coupe instead, not for costs, but as annoyed by 65's sluggish throttle/mildly jerky gearbox in routine driving vs 991TTS in Sport/SportPlus in same urban driving
AMG needs to solve its throttle/gearbox software: rather inept vs P's: table stakes amongst >$200K disposable urban commuter cars in LA/SF

Most folks would be better off with an S63, with the new V8, 4Matic+, and new 9-speed MCT.
Just swap out the badges for the 65 and you’re golden.
