I don't, and not sure if I'll ever be wealthy enough to find it appealing. There's a lot of fluff features that are WTF I have money and I'm gonna brag that it does this inconsequential thing. It's shit that would really not add much pleasure to my driving experience. And aside from LWB versions, the S really isn't much roomier than the E. Barely noticeable. The big difference is more comfy for rear passengers, but I honestly prefer how the CLS did that by making it just 2 rear seats.This quote is hidden because you are ignoring this member. Show Quote

The body styling of the last couple S-Class iterations have been too European looking, imHO.
I know it's one Hell of a machine, but I don't think it's for me.
Would you prefer that it look Sri Lankan?
Maybe?

I actually love the look of the last gen S-Class, particularly in coupe and cabriolet form. I considered a S550 coupe/cab but the rear seats were so tight it just wasn't usable even for kids. Fucked up considering how large the car is.This quote is hidden because you are ignoring this member. Show Quote

I'm loving W221 S-Class as of late. Not a fan of anything newer. W221 in either AMG form, or an S550 would be a great daily driver.
I don't think, for me at least, it's ever been about the fluff features. Heck, most of the stuff that would've been exciting and luxurious in last gen of any of these sedans is probably pretty standard fare today.This quote is hidden because you are ignoring this member. Show Quote
I'll try and put my finger on it to articulate my point better, but the gist of it is the feeling of being supremely comfortable, while also getting that "pulls like a freight train" feeling when you put your foot down... No matter how quick or powerful a sports car is, the feeling of rapid acceleration in a big tub just feels different - and to me, better.
I may be asked to hand in my 'car enthusiast membership card', but one of the most satisfying car moves I made was going from an F10 M5 to a B7... and that was over 10 years ago - I wasn't even 30 yet
