This car is amazing I purchased it in 2021 and its an 2008 and it looks better than a new one I love this model and the motor is crazy fast. I'm a big guy so I fit comfortable in it. Its the best car I have owned and I have owned Cadillacs, Lincolns ,Audi's, Etc. . S63 AMG white color. Fabulous. As far as maintenance yes its expensive but to me worth it.

Rumbling gas guzzler

New for '08, it's exhaust is tuned to rumble. It's too noisy on acceleration, and constantly hums in the rear compartment. I have an '07 S550 which gets 26.6 mpg on the highway. This S63 gets 18 mpg if you keep the speed at 70. Otherwise, mileage drops dramatically. Acceleration is awesome. The car starts out as a jack rabbit and turns into a missle. Before you know it, you're doing 60 mph in a 30 speed zone, and 90 in a 65. The interior is a superb improvement over the last generation. The dash is beautiful. The COMAND has 4 ways to get to a function making it user friendly.

I Love my S550!

I love my S550. This automobile is as much fun to drive as it is to look at. The luxurious interior coupled with the ultra quietness of the interior make this car unlike any other. Handling and manuverability on and off the highway is powerful and responsive. The S550 represents the perfect balance between luxury and power.

Shoppers should simply know THIS about the Mercedes S-550: You can read, see and hear all the buzz about this car--but until you drive it in the starts and stops of city travel, then take it on the interstate on a road trip: you will NEVER UNDERSTAND or APPRECIATE the luxurious comfort & blessing this car Really Is!!!

Is it possible to have luxury, comfort, superb build quality, and safety in one car? Yup! Oh, you want performance too? Well, this is the one to get. I'm comparing the S63 to other cars I've owned: NSX, SL600, 2 Vipers, several Corvettes, S500, SL55 AMG, and the S63 rules.
