Used 2016 Mercedes-Benz S-Class S 63 AMG 4MATIC Consumer Reviews

What a car

I have owned for a year. Chose over a Bentley. While the Bentley had a nicer outside style, The Mercedes is just a better car, has technology and is faster. I don't like the gas mileage, but I guess that is what you should expect for a sedan that does 0-60 in 3.0 seconds. The car actually steers itself ... stays in lanes ... stops in emergencies. I did get the upgraded interior and stereo ... and in hindsight, love the interior but could have passed on the stereo because it eats trunk space. No maintenance issues whatsoever! The biggest weakness is that it is so subtle. Wish is stood out a little more from the standard s550. By the way, the firmness of the ride over the standard s550 is what makes it for me. Great car, a little overpriced perhaps, but a better deal than some.

MB glitchy 7 speed spoils the ride

I was thrilled to find a CPO w 39k, 2016 S63 extended version. Wish I had paid more attention to the ride than the stars in my eyes. The trans is glitchy in either C or S mode. Feels like the clutch pack and trans are bad. 1 - 4 gears can be treacherous. Hard upshift, hard downshift, and an occasional complete drop out of gear... if you are lucky. If you are not, the vehicle starts bucking. Once over 4th, it drives perfectly. I had the nerve to demand MB do something. The adjusted the clutch pack to keep from fully engaging. So it drives like a sloth. Took it back in. They kept for a week, drove it twice for about 10 mins each. Three days later called to say there was nothing wrong. For the 18months I have owned it, it has been in for service 5 times. Not once did someone Lube the squeaky drivers door.

My 12th Mercedes but my very first S 63 coupe

Great driving coupe! Love the exhaust note in the sports mode... So 6 months later I absolutely love this car! The High-End entertainment system with 24 speakers and a high-output amplifier will blow your hair back...LOL Seriously Mercedes outdid itself when they designed this car. The power, handling, and suspension system are just awesome. What a joy to drive. Very comfortable on long rides. I held off on purchasing this S coupe for a few years because of the price CPO Benz coupes were bringing, but after having it in my garage I wish now that I had bought the coupe sooner....live and learn I guess. If you can't afford an AMG go for the S 550 coupe. They have some of the same feelings as the S 63 AMG. The brakes on the AMG are a lot more expensive and the AMGs go through tires quicker than the S 550 coupes, but that's why we have Discount Tire isn't it!!

pleasure to review S550

Great car, you got to experience it.
