DON'T BUY THIS PIECE OF JUNK
I bought this car new in 2007. It is now 4 years old. Had transmission problems, suspension problems and electrical glitches. It's only good point is it's extremely comfortable ride. But what's the use in having a nice ride if it hardly moves down the road. Yes it's a Mercedes, yes it looks classy, but don't waste your time. With the Purchase and repair costs, you could've bought a nice Bentley. All I can say is this deceitful beauty will be traded in within the month.
Best engineered car in the world!
I purchsed this vehicle back in March of '06. I also own a 760iL and a Bentley Continental, but so far, this Benz has been my favorite car. It has a more luxurious feel than the other two, and is more high tech. The new command system has improved and is more intuitive than the previous model, but some owners may still find it a bit frustrating initially. In a way, I kind of miss having all those buttons surrounding me. I owned a 2005 S500 that I traded in when I acquired this one. The new 550 engine is more powerful and more economical than the 500. Overall, I haven't yet found any reason not to love this car, and I'm sure if you're an owner you'd agree with me!

Epic disappointment
This car is an electrical nightmare. Constantly needs work done to it at unreasonable cost. Will not get 3 months worth of uninterrupted use out of it. Loaded with sensors and modules that fail, alternator cost around a $1000 and transmission problem is a standard. Poor resale value, I finally traded it in for a VW. Sleep better since.

Outplays Bentley and BMW
The 2007 Mercedes Benz S65 AMG is the best car I ever owned. I have owned a Bentley Continental Flying Spur, a Bentley Arnage, Maserati Quadroppe, and have driven a BMW 760 Li. None can compare to the true luxury car, the S65. For a 604 horsepower V12, I get a great 19.8 miles to gallon highway as an average, and every so often, I get 22. The ride is comfortable. It has agressive AMG styling and performance. To all who look for a true luxury car under $200,000 that (technically) compares to a Maybach 57s or a R-R Phantom, forget Bentley( Let me remind you, thought, the Bentley is good). Go for the excellent 2007 S65 AMG V12 BiTurbo.
Repairs often and Expensive
I did not do my homework with this car. It is a beautiful car and a great ride. However the money I have paid for repairs makes the old wise saying everything that shines is not gold, so true. My suspension has went out twice dropping car to ground. Each repair over $1,500. Tires are over $2,000 and a front headlight was over $250. Now it will not shift gears and sitting in my garage. Buying a Lexus or a car with better warranty and reviews.
