hellraiser0906 · 16th April 2006, 00:43

is this world awesome or what!!! just got back from the hyatt (grand), and saw the s350 there ............ and what an amazing thing it is.....!! for a sec from a distance i thought it was the maybach, but then came to my senses ....... its just beautiful
got a pic, but its rubbish actually - just the back [on the left]

its actually been a pretty good couple of days concernin cars for me ; spotted the following in the past 2 days ;
mercedes s350, s330, s320, bmw x5, x3, and i think there was a ferrari but it sped away too fast - in colaba. saw n sl 55 too ;;;;;

S330....hmm, man, have I been oblivious to Mercedes engine sizes, or is that error by you. Let it be the latter, or else my diminishing love for Mercedes will totally zerofy in a moment.

Indian Wealth strikes again. 500...whew!

That pics was nice..hope its having a panoramic glass top..

S500 is the car to have..its new V8 is silky smooth & very powerful to take on the challeges from any V8s..And the biturbo V12 is one of its kind with 500+ hp & 900NM torque..

..

The techs like presafe, distronic, night view assist, reverse cameras and lot of other techs in the previous S-classes also are not copied from any other cars..but its being copied from S-class by others..

come to real terms and the 500sel has some hidden devilish charm which makes u feel to keep the pedal to metal and also make that exahust roar. the S or 7series on the other hand feel nice to be with a light foot on the pedal.

aj_444_2006 · 17th April 2006, 21:47

hellraiser0906 · 17th April 2006, 22:49

yeah i know ... pics could've been better ; but i took it with my 6600 ... should've used dad's phone ... thing was , wanted to get a good pic of the front, but for the inital period i was so blown away by the brilliance of that cars looks, taking a pic didn't occur to me whatsoever!! hahaha.....
then just as it began to move away i got whatever i could ...
hey spotted the boxster s just yesterday [the owner n me stay in the same area anyway]. . .
just adding to this huge number of amazing imported cars i've been seeing in the past few days

ITS_NOMAD · 22nd April 2006, 02:22

sanju ha bought the new S and as usual its black...

v12 · 6th June 2006, 14:51

Spotted the new S being escorted by 2 X5's near the airport. The new S is huge and looks much better than the one it replaces.

2006 S class decidedly looks very imposing but some how lacks the old Elegance that Mercedes was associated with in terms of Design Philosophy though from some angles the new one looks clean and neat ...This is one...I guess
