  • wish I could drive like the guy in the video, really aggressive

  • Im looking at a 1997 mercedes s600 with 32000 miles and great condition for $30000. Is it worth it?

  • @MrKing651

    Yeah right. So self-closing doors, bullet-proof panels and double-glazed windows are all examples of a poorly built car? Tell me, which piece of Jap scrap boasts the same spec? Nothing, and I mean nothing, compares to the W140 S-Class or the S-Class in general. Why do you think every South American dictator from the 70's and 80's used the S-Class. Maybe you think they were chauffered around in Honda Civics!!

  • different style to make advertisement on luxury car. this more like advertising an SUV.

  • me gusta mucho mas este que el moderno.es un coche genial

  • The last of the true over-engineered MBs. My brother-in-law had a '99 that was as flawless as any vehicle could be. It was solid, quiet, comfortable and reliable. He traded it for a 2002 S430 Sport. What a heap of junk that was. The difference in quality was obvious the moment you sat inside but what made it a complete heap was the visits to the dealer's service department every two weeks or so. Should have never sold the '99 - that was truly a masterpiece.

  • These things really don't look out of place anywhere, whether it's driving across the desert, smuggling drugs over the Mexican border or on a racetrack.

  • the 1991-1999 Mercedes-Benz S-Class was assembled in

    Stuttgart, Germany

  • @MrKing651 either you set very, very high standards (but you compare to kia so you cant really..) or you´re just some kinda stupid... w140 was made in good time of mercedes (before -00) ive never had one, but all the other mercs we have had, plus all the ones my grandpa has had.. and also the ones my great grandpa has had concludes about 20 mercs, including my -83 w123 240D they dont give you much trouble if you maintain it compared to other brands!

  • Went into production 20 years ago today on August 6, 1991 as a 1992 model along with other with the 1992 SL-Class, E-Class(new 400E & 500E), and 190E models. The SEC would do so in the third quarter of 1992.

  • My w140 is a 94 S 350 Turbo Diesel & It runs like a purring bitch!!!! :-P

  • @MrKing651 something is wrong with you my friend! i get alot of nice comments on my car!

  • @MrKing651 i dont know what your saying but i think you have a Honda under that body cause the w140 are the best cas ever built i own 3 of them S320 350,000km, S500 434,000km and S600 145,000km and looking at the km's i think they were on the road more often and never had any major problem PLUS the W140's where i live all have high KM's and are n show room condition your just a bad owner or not taking good care of it cause they are still expensive to maintain these days

  • TANK on wheels...Best car ever built by human hands.PERIOD!

  • This car was very popular in Russia in 90's. Gang leaders rides only "shestisotiy"

  • always wondered.. why does the wipers go the wrong way?

    anyway great car always wanted an S-klass, but grew up with w124s and now own an -83 w123 240D! :)

  • UGLY W140 W126 IS THE BEST!!!!!!!!

  • asshow w140 is the best car of the world

  •  w126 is the only S-Class which was produced for 12 years. Actually it is needless to say but for the sake of contributing to your knowledge. W126 is the "TOP OF THE "S" SERIES" which is ever and will have ever been produced.

  • @bluvaio OR the W140 it cost so much for mercedes to develop these cars that then lost alot of money, even tho they sold many of them.

  • shit was just plain gangsta back then I <3 mercedes

  • No other car does everything quite so well. I know the Lexus is great, but it appeals to a slightly different crowd, okay?

  • its funny how the 01-02 w220 600 has significantly less hp and tq than the w140 600 haha!

  • toyotatocoralla=you have no money to buy a w220 s class

  • @hee1988 yes, that guy is only a shit of a jealous that can't afford a new s-class...

  • 0:37 o_O

  • best Mercedes ever...I love it...<3

  • 0:12

  • I noticed this generation of the Mercedes Benz S-class wipers wipe in the opposite direction of the driver. Was this to cut costs or something?

  • Love this ad for what is still, one of the best car ever made! And I am lucky enough to own one!

  • the best car on earth!

  • The W140 was the best Merc since the 600, stunning!

  • I love this advert. Just think all those years ago, all I could do was walk past the showroom and dream on. Not so now, I have a W140 500 SEL, what a car. So much luxury and style and the build quality is so good. My car is 19 years old, and has no rust anywhere. And when I drive it I am always smiling. No modern cars for me, oldschool only.

  • Can U guys tell me if this S-class has an onboard computer, where is it located and what kind of data it displays? I'm thinking of buying one soon enough and I have studied all of its features but I can't find any info on OBC whatsoever.

    Thanks!

  • @urosb82 The trip computer is in the small central upper case in the dash above the vents, if fitted. Hope this helps.

  • why is the wipers the wrong way? good car btw but baby bro w124 is actually the most reliable merc built!

  • The S Class actually screamed quality and elegance back then with the W140 but the new S Class's are garbage !

  • W140 One of the BEST Mercedes ever built, mine is a 99' S320 and i bought it from the dealer with 282,000KM's and its like new and drives new, plus i cant even tell if the engines on , thats!! how quite it is!!!

  • that car is EPICLY EPIC all the way!!!!

  • das is eine grosse mercedes =)

  • Can not wait until I buy a 1995-1999 S class for my 1st car.

  • at 0:36 it apears to be uncontrolable 

  • @modo501 uncontrolable they ment it

  • proud to be german

  • This car is amazing no doubt, especially the S600 , THANKS GOD i have this baby but a 1996, sad its not the AMG with 300kmh speed, but still a V12;)

  • 560 is better

  • car 100%

  • LOVE!!!!!! the W140!!!'s gorgous cars ever built on this planet, i just want to live in mine!!!

  • @shanmirza007 oh sorry its a S320V 1999 briliant silver on grey leather and the leather still smells like new unbelievable after 11 years and 285,000km's now thats quality built!!!

  • classic mafia cars! i love this particular year and model of mb

  • OMG I KNOW THE SONG AT THE START

  • This was simply the best era for the S-Class (92-99)...really the 98-99 because of that 5sp transmission with the adaptive pedal. I think that mercedes Inlines were better...but I have a stupid, little, cheaply made, 2004 C240...2 of the door handles broke, back panel fell off the drvrs seat,drvr window button broke, sunscreen gets stuck, my window trick with the key wont work, and yea it's just pretty much slow, and horrible on gas...and just not the W140s.

  • When I was 12 years old I saw the 600 SEL on the I.A.A. in Frankfurt. A dream!

  • now thats how you test a full size luxury car.

  • Mine is a 1992 S320. It could still go easily at 140km/hr. Safe and reliable car.

  • I just bought a '99 S320 gorgous car love it i went from a 2000 clk to that, and i must say that iam very have driving the most reliable cars i the world, they should bring these cars back into production!!!!

  • mafia car ehehe

  • How the hell did the driver do that 360-spin in a W140??! Simply amazing for a car this big and heavy!!

  • lady dy....made the best dummy test with this car

  • awesome video

    and wonderful car...

  • I think I really Love this car. I might just have to buy two!

  • dustinlawrence,your baby mama is mama thanx to an nigger.

    thats why they say hole in the game in golf.

    in your case its an black ball in a white hole.

    ask yamamma son.

  • It's hilarious watching assholes who don't know how to cook burn unintentionally themselves on the stove.

  • Love this car. We bought it yesterday. S320.

  • whiteboyfromsouth

    likes dicks in the mouth

  • i drive a 1993 500SL ...when u drive a mercedes its difficult to drive other cars .. so firm so powerful

  • Nice !

    I want a ride..hahaha

  • =-D...260 km/h is nothing in a 500 :P

  • Hi Guys I want to mention from a Senior who was working in mercedes B company here in Manhattan NY, for 25 years. I meet this man this year 2009 and i ask him what is your opinion about the mercedes s500 1995? compare with the new mercedes s500 2001-2009.

    He said the mercedes s500,91-98 was made it with the best materials and the best quality of the interior and exterior.

    and finally said this new mercedes s500 2001-2009 are just only futuristic cars no more great quiality just plastic.

  • Thanks for your input. That sounds about right from my experience riding/driving in MB. I am trying to decide on a year for the S class. Leaning towards the W140, but open to W126. Any oppinions most welcome. Thanks in advance.

  • @brettmoret

    The earlier ones (pre 96) Were of higher quality all around. They had the 4 speed transmissions that are bulletproof transmissions compared to the electronic ones of the later W140s. It really depends on what you find though, you might find a W126 in better condition than any W140 in your area and if so I'd go with a W126 in that case. I've had both cars (86' 420SEL, 97' S420)

  • Thanks for the info C06coolvette. I am shopping for a W140. I really like the fact they are the last of the "over engineered" cars. I am quoting some one on that who worked for MB. I owned a 96 SL500 and it was a dream. I loved that car. I would buy another one in a second. I do hear what you are saying about "what you find". I live in Southern California, and they are abundunt. I will look and wait for the nice one. I lost my notes but I belive the 98 W140 is favored over the other years?

  • @brettmoret

    I've heard that the pre 96' W140s were the best ones to get the main reason being quality in the parts. In contrast I've also heard the 98s and 99s are the most reliable years for the W140. The 97' I had was just a nightmare though, it looked like a showroom car but it started falling apart literally just a few weeks after I bought it. You name it and it probably happened to my 97'.

    Whichever year you decide on make sure to have your mechanic look it over thoroughly. Good luck

  • @brettmoret I have a 98 S600, everything works and I've had no problems at all - unlike my Bentley Turbo R which is back at the dealership having numerous faults fixing!

  • @rozdog333 What do you like most about your S600? I am curious why the 600 over the 500. I understand the bigger engine, but was there more in making your decision? Thanks. What year Bentley by the way?

  • I luv dis car!!!

  • Why they tested a luxury car on offroad?

  • because the S class is used to transport important people and it needs to be good on any surface to get away from the attackers should they come

  • Thanks for information!

  • die amis leben doch hinterm mond

  • hello guy's i just wnat to comment i have this car s500 1995 and is my first time in my life to buy a car.

    this car is a master piece of germany enginers.

    is really high durability car and still lokks like new,i'm liivng in new york city,and i was driving in manhattan 42st and 5 ave;

    many people just turn their heads to see this beautiful car and some them ask me what years is this car?

    i ask them what year do you think is?

    he said 2000 something i said no, is 1995 he said wow ...

  • @S966174 I envy you this pleasure, and i hope you take care in the future. Good choice!

  • awesome video

  • 600 SEL ON DIESEL IS NOT EXISTEN NOOB

  • ti kurva

  • And it seems to me, she lived her life like a candle in the wind. Never knowing who to cling to, when the rain set in. And I would have liked to know you when I just a kid, the candle burned out long before your legend ever will.

  • Imagine doing all those driving with a CEO in the back LOL

  • This is the best S-class ever. Im getting a 1998 or a 1999 S500 when I find one

    Much better then crappy 2000-2006 model. That model was crap

  • Ha Cool Man, I want the new 2010 E-Class for High School

  • Don't do it. That car is just pure junk. It feels really cheap compared to a 1995 E320. Get the 1986-1995 Model. Or the 96-02

  • Well I like it, I already told my dad I wanted that one, and we're saving up for the '10 E-Class

  • Ok. Your loss. I would never buy a mercedes after the 1996-2002 E-class.

    FORGET IT IN MY BOOK.

  • lol dont be a show off in highschool the jealous kids will wreak your ride . lol take my advice and stick to that corolla :P

  • @ToyotaforCorolla

    WHY IS IT CRAP?

  • @ToyotaforCorolla Totally agree, I myself use a 600SEL as a daily driver and its an amazing car. very reliable and powerful, its fast and cofortable at the same time.

  • @ToyotaforCorolla

    Have you bought your s class yet ?

  • @sonnymad

    Nope. Im still deciding which and which...

  • @ToyotaforCorolla

    I just picked up my 1997 S500 one owner 90000km's what a car !!!

  • @sonnymad WOW good find i got mines form Mercedes Dealer, one owner 285,000kms and i must say it runs,looks drives better then all the new cars built today, people think its a 2010, i guess Mercedes is known for it timeless looks !!!

  • @ToyotaforCorolla

    Yeah, but this one's a barge

  • @ToyotaforCorolla I dont understand why ppl dislike the 2000-2006 model.... its a very good car.

  • @datpimpinboy

    go sit and drive a 2000-2006, and then drive a W140, I bet you'll find the difference in quality the minute you see them !

  • @bilalahmed2123 well sorry dude i havnt driven any of them... im just saying!

  • @bilalahmed2123 my fam has both 1998 W140 and 2006 W220 and still have them now, both are luxurious and a lot of advanced features, but i tend to think the 1998 has better build though, the 2006 is starting to give us problems to fix already at such younger age as compared, but other than that the newer car has more power and smoother gear change etc etc

  • @datpimpinboy The 2000-2006 are truly junk, i know alot of people that own them and nothing but problems and cheaply made cause Mercedes was with chrysler american company so they fucked up the quality, 1999 was the last year for this car and the only car that was OVER ENGINEERED like no other i own a 1999 S320W and the quality and reliability it too amazing!!

  • @shanmirza007 well if you say so! I really have never driven a mercedes but im a big mercedes fan and when the 2000-2006 s class came out I used to love it (i was a kid) and maybe that's why I tend to defend it. But after so many comments I guess mercedes did really lower its quality, and I have to agree that the newer 2007+ really look cheap especially in the interior. I dont know whats going on with MB, they are letting BMW take over the #1 luxury car maker!

  • @ToyotaforCorolla Blame Chrysler!

  • @ToyotaforCorolla Crap? Compared to what?

  • @ToyotaforCorolla shut the hell up, and don't be jealous because you can't afford a new s-class, ok? if you could afford a new s-class you wouldn't say that -.-

  • The W140 is one of the finest cars ever built. It is also the last Mercedes Benz S-Class designed by Daimler-Benz AG Stuttgart prior to the Chrysler merger, to bear the S-Class badge. I am the proud owner of a '96 S420, going on 5 years now (replaced my '84 300SD that I lost in a road accident and prior to that a '79 300D). Hands down, no substitue.

  • Most beautiful car I bought in my life is the ghost power and stability and durability

  • My favorite holy car.

  • The most elegant S class ever!

  • the s500 is a bad ass.315hp and the s600 v12 puts out 408hp.two well built machines.

  • This car is great i have drive it but i dont owen it, i have drive 500S, and i have drive BMW 740IL, i think BMW more sporty and Daynamics, and better handiling,and i also found that mercedes 500s is more comfortable and silent, and the vibration level is alittel pit less than BMW, But mercedes W140 dosent have navigation system and TV screen,

    like BMW, the accelration of both car is simler

  • The music is very Eric Serraesque-and with my fav car, it is magic!

  • Fantastic cm and i love the music

  • That is supposed to be the best advertisement from Mercedes-Benz we have ever seen...

    And one of their most impressive automobiles also... -but nearly to puffed up! The 600 SEL (the top version) has a weight of 2,700 kilogramms!!!...

    The speaker says at the end: "Die new S-Class has absolved more than 5 million test kilometres to provide you a relieved driving, even if you don't want to drive on your own..."

    There is nothing more to add!...

  • Danke, aber ich würde wissen, was er sagt in Deutsch "die neue S-klasse hat..."??

  • By the way what does the speaker say? "Die neue S-Klasse...???"

  • great commercial with one of the best cars of the world.MERCEDES BENZ 4EVER!!!!!!

  • I really love this car! It's the typical auto of the russian mafia^^ And now they are really affordable ~8000/15000 euros. Too bad it's too large for driving in France the streets are so narrow

  • It´s a good car for practice TT

  • i agree with u 100 percent, it's one of the most famous and lovely cars of mercedes benz

  • Russian? French?! From which hick town do ya'll come?! Its the language of Mercedes! GERMAN!

  • Maybe french? Lol!! Whatever, it's still cool!!--the23 year old me.

  • cool video! if I could only understand what they are saying! Is this german? or
