Question E63s vs. S63s

Extremely happy with my 2015 E63s. Saw a CPO 2016 S63s at the dealer. Worth the "upgrade"? Appreciate any thoughts on difference in driving experience, reliability (vs. the E63s), etc.

Thank you!

Not worth it

unless you want more luxury and creature comforts and are ok with a slower performing car that doesn't handle as well

E63S
Interesting thread. Ever since I test drove one I slowed down on mods thinking to upgrade to S63 in a year or so.
Didnt get to push it on the test drive of course, but the car is something else. Interior alone is wow.

And you thought E class issues out of warranty are bad... the S class is worse

over 100 electric motors on the interior alone

And The new E63S W213 interior is a Louis Vuitton purse with a nerd haven of gadgets and tailored to those who need the technology the nerd-herd instead of just a car. Besides looking like a pussified, smaller version of an S.

our E63S' pound for pound are they best overall luxury sedan built for speed, performance, balance, handling, occupants, styling and class.

I actual came from a 2015 E63s to my new MY17 S63. Performance wise i think they are both neck to neck, but technology and comfort wise as a DD, i think the S63 is a clear winner. I was looking for luxury and performance and you cant beat a occasional highway pulls with passenger in the back reclined in their seats and the much improved over the W212 tech.

As with all Mercedes, you don't want to own one without warrant.

To be honest, I think the S63 is more comparable to the W213 E63s than the W212 E63. Hope this helps.

IMHO S-class is a limo and should come with the driver.
I prefer to not look like a limo driver...

E63s
My friend had a s63 coupe , I drove the car from a stop the car is very sluggish and heavy , not as nimble and peppy as an E63s, it’s a beautiful car but not my cup of tea 🍵

In the good ole united states of america, this is what we call a limo:



In Germany, this is what they call a limo:


This is a video of a E63s vs. S63:


With all that luxury packed into the S63, I can live with it being a "little" slower than the W213 E63s stock.

It is not everyone's cup of tea for sure, but it is far from like driving a limo.

If I wanted a fast fast car, I would of gotten a Lambo or Ferrari and call it a sports car. This IMHO.

Is the S class a big car, yes it is and that is why a kid can actually sit on the back seat floor mats while the back seat passenger can be in a comfortable and recline position.

There are much more issues with the W212 than the W222. Just look at all the issues on this forum vs. on the W222 forum.
