if you can afford an s class, i think u can afford the gas for it... plus, lots of starts/stops cant be good for your engine. extra unnecessary stress? lol save a buck on gas, spend it at the mechanic shop.. or in this case, dealership

The W124 platform is the best and last good Mercedes model line.

@pararop yes, not that could think of anything though.. looks? perhaps, but engineering? have audi ever been accused for being over engineered?
-
@pararop that is your subjective opinion.

audi is better tan mb

@vanwiek Ok. Quite honestly, I'm not sure whether it's on the "regular" S-Class, but am assuming it will be if not now; it seems to be getting onto many other cars.
It's just another gimmick sop to the whole green thing I think, that will just add to traffic hold-ups. Start-stops that I've experienced so far are not so instantaneous.

@CodeTwo2 Understand what your saying but I think your not informed about the specifics of the start-stop function. It is only on the hybrid S400 and once you press the accelerator you need not wait for the engine to start before the car starts moving. The instant that you press the gas pedal an electric motor propels the car, as that is happening the engine is also restarted.

@Anglichanen Well said. Only those of us who actually own these cars know what a headache they are. They look great and everyone pays you compliments..but at the end of the day you wish you had a Lexus so as to not keep paying for repairs all the time. The W126 model was the last of the great hand-built MB's.
Would you rather spend a few grand on a trip to Hawaii for a few weeks..or do yet ANOTHER repair on your MB? All the people who own Lexus' will tell MB owners how beautiful Hawaii is..lol.
i love german cars!!!
