pics are really nice, and yes the AMG kit is a must!

would u pick the a8 or the 7 series over the s-class with AMG kit?

Im good with the A8. Its more my type. i preffer it over the rest.

I feel the S looks better with the kit.

I agree the AMG kit is a must with the S class, it gets rid of those horrid fog lights!

But if it was my money, I'd definately go the the Jaguar XJR!

I would never imagine myself buying the new S without the sport package. For me to call the design of the car a winner it must have the AMG package. On top of that if you can afford a 80k Benz then you probably can afford to add the AMG-kit.

Its crazy what a difference it makes....

I think this new S class will almost certainly out-sell the W220.

When you consider that the W220's launch coincided with the Asian economic collapse and the Dot Com crash, maintained steady sales through Sept 11 2001, the war on terror, Afghanistan, Iraq, and rising oil prices - then I think that obviously the market for the big Benz is very strong indeed.

Well I guess the luxury sector is pretty much immune to world events (and turmoils).

so its not the car design that u guys dont like ,,, its just that the car looks sooo classy and with AMG it totaly changes into a sporty sedan...

Well, I hope not.
The must be taught a lesson for shamefully copying others interior.
