There are too many sour grapes in your diet. Here, I've made you a new avatar. Happy Easter buddy



P.S: I'll be in the market for a chauffeur driven car at the end of next year, so this refreshed offering from Mercedes interest me a lot.

I highly doubt that Scott ,but hey lets wait for tests between the two V12s and see..

Scott, if they look here for feedback..MB got one helluva feedback the past month
with the E63 , S FL and now SLS interior..
While BMW who also looks here for feedback got a very diffrent kind of feedback on their latest creations ( the M suvs)..
Guess someone is going back to the drawing board

PS
This release of the S FL so tightly behind the M suvs stings so badly in BMW fans eyes (not all cause some of you are really cool about it) that it makes me enjoy every post times 1000

Exquisite choice Luw..

I would be strange that the 760 Li with a brand new V12, wich is a TwinTurbo and has more power output (544 hp) doesn´t top the old V12 from Mercedes. The 8 speeds gearbox but again, the F01 is an entirely new car.

BMW makes great cars, the 7er is one of their gratest, but the S-Class simply has more prestige, and when you go to a zone where the rich people often goes, you´ll see plenty of S-Class and with luck 1 or 2 7ers, and I´ve experienced thi a few weeks ago.

Also when a new S-Class is launched, the jump and the improovement over the competition is way bigger than when a new 7er comes out.

These are facts, but I still think that this discusion is the same as always, and is boooring.

Thank you very much. But I really don't get all the LED obsession some are experiencing.


Oh, thanks for telling this. I'll arrange a BMW representative will contact you personally, and lick your a$$ to convince you to buy a BMW or evan a Rolls. Which I guess never was an option for you anyway. But in the end of the day you a$$ will be fresh & shiny. /sarcasm off

Well LEDs make gives the car a dynamic presence, hell that's what makes the Drophead Coupe look powerful. The F01 doesn't have LEDs in the front end and neither does the A8 or Flying Spur.

The LEDs make the car look more avantgarde, if not why is BMW launching their new 760 Li with full LED frontlights?.

^^
It better have some distinctive design features that will distinguish it from the rather bored looking 750i, or else the facelifted S600 will turn it into mashed potatoes.

I've said time and time again that LEDs look like christmas tree decorations (On a car). Merc uses them more effectively though.
