ive never seen an s-class TRYING to take corners fast, but i must say im impressed, didnt figure that it would hold the road so well.. wtf kinda tires were those? lol
It looked like a gentleman driving the car when it came out at the junction, but when it overtook the Mustang, it looked like it was The Stig driving the S65 AMG XD
Oh I see what you're talkin about. I don't think he mis-shifted though...it sounded like he just gave it full throttle, shifted, and then gave it full throttle in the next gear for a split second before he let off.
@Tommynatorium It depends on the girl because the CL looks more sporty and the S looks more expensive (even though it's cheaper). I don't actually know which would draw more attention but I would guess the CL unless you're over age 40 would be a better pussy magnet.
@Tommynatorium Yeah they might see him in his S class and think he must be money so they should suck his dick but keep in mind most bitches probably have no clue the difference between an S class and a Kia Optima other than the fact that the S looks a little bigger. Seriously though you can buy a red Mitsubishi 3000 and put a prancing horse on it and half the girls you meet will fall for it and "get in your Ferrari"
@Tommynatorium Yeah that's probably about right. I don't really know any of this for sure since is depends on the girl more then the age. Heck, you could probably get more attention if you had a top down SL, because that car looks like money and it's sporty. It is definitely less luxury though.
@thekkl What do you think about a Dodge Challenger, Ford Mustang or a Chevy Camaro? Are they more Pussymagnet in Germany? :D They are extrem cheap in comparison to a CL or a S-Class.
@catalyst216 What are you talking about? The only way the M3 can top the S65 is in track performance and that's only because the M3 is so much smaller. Not only is the S65 miles ahead in luxury, but it also performs better on the highway where it doesn't need to worry about turning as much because it's way more powerful then an M3.
@thekkl you are entitled to your opinion, though it is in direct contradiction with that of every single comparison test done with these cars, all of the available test data, and many drivers first hand knowledge of the two cars (mine included). though if you are into tackey overly chromed out cars then yes the merc is more "luxurious"
@catalyst216 No one does comparison tests of the M3 versus the S Class, and it makes sense because they are completely different cars. The M3 is a sports car based on an entry-level luxury car. The S Class is a world class platform that leads the ultra luxury segment. Seriously find me just one comparison test between these two cars. Another point is that the amount of chrome on a cars exterior has absolutely nothing to do with how luxurious it is.
@catalyst216 Also, as far as number comparisons the M3 makes 414 hp and 295 lb/ft whereas the S65 makes 621 hp and 738 lb/ft. And don't even try to get started on luxury, the M3 doesn't have even close to the amount of interior space that the S Class has.
@SUP3RNA7URAL my opinion too. Best car in the world. It has the best of every car: incredible perfomances, incredible luxury, awesome historic brand, good looking, bad ass.
All of you are fucken dumb that say the s65 would have lost even if the mustang didnt let off the gass put them both in a straight line and the mustang would have its ass handed to it the s65 is faster then a f430 and a f430 is even light years ahead of a fucken piece of shit mustang.
I don't even think the Mustang wanted to race. I think he was just trying to make a quick get away to show off and suddenly he sees an AMG trying to pass him. I think it just freaked him out for a second there, I don't think he wanted to risk a very expensive crash lol
my dad has 2009 s65 amg he just got it like a month ago for 199 grand and got my mom a 2009 ml 63 amg omg they both fast as shit my dads s65 has 6.0 litre v12 and my moms has 6.3 litre v10
lol I love fords but damn if that isn't true. My 99 GT had a forged engine that put stress on all the factory parts, it was probably my fault for not replacing ALL the parts, but damn! I'm 6 grand into an engine build, I didn't have another 1500 to replace factory parts. The point is, after I built the engine, all the factory parts failed one by one. after i replaced the factory parts it ran fine. lol fuckin american made plastic shit.
This is just ignorant 'cause I'm a Mercedes and Chevy fan Mercedes is the best but I own an el Camino and i absolutely love it, but i still know Mercedes is the best
comparing Amgs to Fords is like comparing a Boeing to a Cessena, simply no basis for compariosn.AMG is light years ahead of ford in automotive technology design and performance.
Yeah witacolt the mustang driver seemed to hold back a bit but naturally the mustang still seemed like did or would have a little bodyroll. I'm not making fun of saleens mustangs or 'stangs in general but I've never seen a amg mercedes driven that fast before so I'm just glad to see an amg driven properly (in turns) :).
to me didnt look like a race. more looked like the s65s driver was in a bigger hurry.. and any smart mustang driver wouldnt choose to race an exotic on a curvey road right when you start..
Oh and Matt, I guess you have NEVER been to a drag strip, Come on retard, 9.6? What was the MPH again? oh you don't know, that's what I thought.
2008 65's still come with 604hp and 738ft#'s. And guys who say 'Bi-Turbo' may be 'Bi' themselves, just say twin turbo like every other guy.
And for Saleens being shitty and slow and an S65 would "rocket the shit out of any saleen...naturally aspirated or not", an '07 S281E will drive around an S65, and I guess you have never heard of an S7, dumbass
Thanks sdolzani I appreciate that. I love the AMG...just hate when those with no real world knowledge chime in with down right retarted statements. And your right the saleen S7 is one mean machine! weighs almost nothing and sports 550HP! Talk about a rocketship! Hell even the new Saleen Extreme is an absolute terror!
guys I'm just having fun I don't really plan on owning either either a Saleen mustang or a Mercedes AMG, I am more of a classic muscle person. The only reason I replied to jarrodgt's comment originally is because I figured he was one of the mustang loving ppl that think they have the most kickass car on the face of the earth...i see now you are not on of those ppl...sorry i stereotyped ya, i was just posting about the amg because it is what i had just watched on tv before seeing the video
and second of all you have no idea what kinda of automotive knowledge i might have or might not have...and i just google the "2008 sl65 AMG" and clicked on the first legit spec link and it says 4532 lbs
This vehicle in the video is S65 by the way and weighs in at 5035lbs...you might want to go to another "Legit" site then. And yes by your comments I know exactly the roundabout knowledge you have. Your answers alone have told me that so dont come on here and try to defend yourself you will only lose and look even more rediculous. Just as I do trying to explaid shit to you. I fell like Im talking to a 5 year old and explaining how the wheel works
apparently i am stupid...i just realized that that this is entirely different...the thing i watch on speed was the 2008 SL65 AMG coupe and i searched for it on youtube and this video came up....which i assumed was the SL, i didn't realize it was the S65 4 door which does indeed weigh 600lbs more than the SL....I am sure that you know your shit when it comes to cars, but don't go insulting me, because i can hold my own....i am sick of whatever stupid argument we are having, but it fun...pce
You can hold you own huh... well then try and explain why your still defending that 9sec run? even at 4500lbs 612 HP can only propell that car to a 12.0 Maybe just maybe the 11.99 range. Sorry for insulting you but you need to have a little more time under your belt as far as automotive info goes before you go on a world wide video sharing site and talk shit on a subject you appartently are lacking knowledge. But thanks for playing!! Ive had fun. :)
I guess if u don't believe it then maybe you should consult SPEED tv not me...I just saw what I saw and the clock said 9.6sec at the dragstrip and I don't know what MPH was....I was shocked when I saw it...thats why I looked the car up online...I can't imagine they would have lied about a time on tv
I have had my share of mustangs, but the best cars I have owned were AMG's. I just bought my wife a used E500 4matic, she's pregnant, I will buy another AMG before any mustang, I saw a 2006 s65 in NY w/10K miles for $79,000? Sounds too cheap right? Anyway, I like speed,if it happens to be one of the nicest luxery cars as well, then that is great, best of both worlds! I have seen videos of sl65 Renntech's going 10.70's at only about 130 on drag radials, they hook!! About 800hp ,crank, 1000ftlbs
It was most likely an 1/8 mile track if you saw 9.6 not a full 1/4 mile.
and yes sdolzani I agree on the AMG great ride for the family! luxury and quick. WOW a 2006 s65 at 50% off...I would beware of that buy...sounds too good to be true. 800HP at the crank...someone upped the boost on that one hehe...not stock by any means. and to see something that heavy run 10s is amazing! and as heavy as they are I would expect them to hook...thats a lot of weight on the rear end :)
Yeah that is just like my old boss! He was always getting into it with kids in their 5.0L Mustangs and Camaros with his SL55 AMG! He was a great guy. Even let my drive once!
Yes But the Saleen turns...so does the Roush..look at the track times and educate yourself. Saleen uses Racecraft suspension and is powered by a supercharged V8 4.6L. Is it that fastest? no but it can hold its own and especially in the twisties. and for$140,000 more dollars added to it we can fly it to the moon. Thats the difference in price between the two cars. But by all means bash the mustang. You look really smart doing it
Exactly what I was about to say, these 16 year old boys think that the benz is MUCH faster, when really it only has about 130 hp on the s281, and when you compare weight of the vehicles the benz is much heavier than the s281.
If this was an s302 saleen then it would have 550 hp and would demolish this heavy waste-of-money.
It's just my opinion, I don't like mercedes what so ever so to me it's just a waste of money. That s65 is more of a limo service than a race car, that big motor is just to hall around the owner's fat employees to lunch.

2008 65's still come with 604hp and 738ft#'s. And guys who say 'Bi-Turbo' may be 'Bi' themselves, just say twin turbo like every other guy.
And for Saleens being shitty and slow and an S65 would "rocket the shit out of any saleen...naturally aspirated or not", an '07 S281E will drive around an S65, and I guess you have never heard of an S7, dumbass

Thanks sdolzani I appreciate that. I love the AMG...just hate when those with no real world knowledge chime in with down right retarted statements. And your right the saleen S7 is one mean machine! weighs almost nothing and sports 550HP! Talk about a rocketship! Hell even the new Saleen Extreme is an absolute terror!

guys I'm just having fun I don't really plan on owning either either a Saleen mustang or a Mercedes AMG, I am more of a classic muscle person. The only reason I replied to jarrodgt's comment originally is because I figured he was one of the mustang loving ppl that think they have the most kickass car on the face of the earth...i see now you are not on of those ppl...sorry i stereotyped ya, i was just posting about the amg because it is what i had just watched on tv before seeing the video
mattlofbc 3 years ago
and second of all you have no idea what kinda of automotive knowledge i might have or might not have...and i just google the "2008 sl65 AMG" and clicked on the first legit spec link and it says 4532 lbs
mattlofbc 3 years ago
This vehicle in the video is S65 by the way and weighs in at 5035lbs...you might want to go to another "Legit" site then. And yes by your comments I know exactly the roundabout knowledge you have. Your answers alone have told me that so dont come on here and try to defend yourself you will only lose and look even more rediculous. Just as I do trying to explaid shit to you. I fell like Im talking to a 5 year old and explaining how the wheel works
JarrodGT 3 years ago
apparently i am stupid...i just realized that that this is entirely different...the thing i watch on speed was the 2008 SL65 AMG coupe and i searched for it on youtube and this video came up....which i assumed was the SL, i didn't realize it was the S65 4 door which does indeed weigh 600lbs more than the SL....I am sure that you know your shit when it comes to cars, but don't go insulting me, because i can hold my own....i am sick of whatever stupid argument we are having, but it fun...pce
mattlofbc 3 years ago
You can hold you own huh... well then try and explain why your still defending that 9sec run? even at 4500lbs 612 HP can only propell that car to a 12.0 Maybe just maybe the 11.99 range. Sorry for insulting you but you need to have a little more time under your belt as far as automotive info goes before you go on a world wide video sharing site and talk shit on a subject you appartently are lacking knowledge. But thanks for playing!! Ive had fun. :)
JarrodGT 3 years ago
I guess if u don't believe it then maybe you should consult SPEED tv not me...I just saw what I saw and the clock said 9.6sec at the dragstrip and I don't know what MPH was....I was shocked when I saw it...thats why I looked the car up online...I can't imagine they would have lied about a time on tv

I have had my share of mustangs, but the best cars I have owned were AMG's. I just bought my wife a used E500 4matic, she's pregnant, I will buy another AMG before any mustang, I saw a 2006 s65 in NY w/10K miles for $79,000? Sounds too cheap right? Anyway, I like speed,if it happens to be one of the nicest luxery cars as well, then that is great, best of both worlds! I have seen videos of sl65 Renntech's going 10.70's at only about 130 on drag radials, they hook!! About 800hp ,crank, 1000ftlbs
sdolzani 3 years ago
It was most likely an 1/8 mile track if you saw 9.6 not a full 1/4 mile.
and yes sdolzani I agree on the AMG great ride for the family! luxury and quick. WOW a 2006 s65 at 50% off...I would beware of that buy...sounds too good to be true. 800HP at the crank...someone upped the boost on that one hehe...not stock by any means. and to see something that heavy run 10s is amazing! and as heavy as they are I would expect them to hook...thats a lot of weight on the rear end :)

what the hell you talking about...the 08+ S65 AMG has a biturbo v12 with 720hp...rocket the shit out of any saleen...naturally aspirated or not
mattlofbc 3 years ago
Yeah that is just like my old boss! He was always getting into it with kids in their 5.0L Mustangs and Camaros with his SL55 AMG! He was a great guy. Even let my drive once!

You can't actually compare these two cars. They are in different leagues. The S65 is a limo, and the Saleen (an attempt of) a sports car.
wasincox 3 years ago
The mustang slowed because they were going througe a curve,mustangs go straight.
jogga123 3 years ago
Yes But the Saleen turns...so does the Roush..look at the track times and educate yourself. Saleen uses Racecraft suspension and is powered by a supercharged V8 4.6L. Is it that fastest? no but it can hold its own and especially in the twisties. and for$140,000 more dollars added to it we can fly it to the moon. Thats the difference in price between the two cars. But by all means bash the mustang. You look really smart doing it

Haha, thats sick. I beat that S65 could out handle that mustang too. Haha

The Saleen wasn't pushing it to the limits, dumbasses. Learn your shit before posting.
GrandPooba1024 4 years ago
Exactly what I was about to say, these 16 year old boys think that the benz is MUCH faster, when really it only has about 130 hp on the s281, and when you compare weight of the vehicles the benz is much heavier than the s281.
If this was an s302 saleen then it would have 550 hp and would demolish this heavy waste-of-money.

wouldn't call a mercedes a waste of money but your right everywhere else.
pedersonaa 3 years ago
It's just my opinion, I don't like mercedes what so ever so to me it's just a waste of money. That s65 is more of a limo service than a race car, that big motor is just to hall around the owner's fat employees to lunch.
