Post New 2011 S600

Wow! Is all I can say!
It kind of reminds me of a yacht. Mercedes-Benz this is an awesome car.



I wasn't really expecting comfort with a V12 engine; as I thought that a slight tap of the accelerator will send you jolting forwards, but actually, no. In fact, it produces one of the smoothest rides I have ever had in a vehicle... Comparable with the RR Phantom! If I want to go pretty fast, just use the flappy paddles and boom!

The interior is beautiful, wood and my favourite colour leather... Beige.
Wooden steering wheel is a must!





OK, and if you want to be driven in this... You have plenty of space! Plenty of space for some other people as well



(I was on the way to my tennis club...)

The S600 came with the Bang & Olufsen sound system; quite an expensive extra... Sound quality is good, nothing really exciting; but I guess you pay for the name.



The exhausts are also something to drool over... I prefer these over the round tip ones over the previous models...



Anyways, awesome car to drive and to be driven in Next G55 AMG

Awesome car. How would you compare it to the S63/65 if you have driven those?

Well S65/S63 for me is a lot more 'ostentatious' if you see what I mean... I prefer to drive in a bit more discreet vehicle, which has a lot of power if need be

The S65 is a ridiculous car; there is so much power a lot more from the bi-turbo but you can also have a lot of fun with this one.

Lets just put it this way; you would get some strange looks turning up to an official meeting in an S65 AMG, but the S600 is just perfect

I love the S-class its my favourite sedan/saloon, S600 is nice and so is the 63 and 65 but the uber S-class is the Pullmann.

The B&0 sound system is amazing, its a nice look and performance but the car needs a designo interior this standard S350 hue beige has to go.

D.Liu: Bro, I don't live in America but would be happy to play if you are the UK/Europe!

MeanMachine: This is exclusive passion cashmere/savanna beige bro; I have the same on my S500 in M.East. So nice Pullmann is just ridiculous haha, you have to get a Maybach instead...! B&O sound system is just stupid; normal one is fine... It's just really to have the looks hehe.

PorscheFanatic: Thanks bro!

G55 next week, more fun

Maybach is nicer rather have an S-class, if I want a luxury car I'd get a Phantom instead.
