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.

I ordered the Car in August of 06 and took delivery in November 06. I currently have over 160000 miles and have done all of the suggested maintance at the dealer. I have replaced items due to normal use but only had to repair one window that would not roll down and replace the Sirius portion of the radio. This is my first 'S' class and I hope not my last. It still drives better that ANY car I have ever owned.
Be careful

My wife has/had a 2007 S550 sedan since new - we paid $92,000 for it. Around 75,000 well-maintained miles we began having major problems with it including computer issues, air suspension, struts, power steering, ball joints - and the service at large South Florida Dealer was disgusting let alone incompetent. They only know how to "diagnose" and order new parts but not install them properly - all for $185 per hour Labor. The car has 64 seperate computer systems. I'm fully aware that maintainence is expensive but it should be done correctly. This car was always properly maintained. Maybe it was a LEMON Mercedes and not typical - but be careful with a tech car like this. We just sold it for $7000 cash and are happy to take a DEEP Breath after over $20,000 in repairs the past 5 years alone.

Stable and powerfull, especially with added 50 more horse power to the new version. Elegance and prestige born within the car itself. Glad to be the first ones to own one and looking forward to see more on the road.
