@Kay:
It looks like you’ve stumbled off of your Honda ricer land forums and attempted to argue about real cars. How about you learn what a power curve is, what curb weight is, what gear ratios are, how wheel and tire size affect acceleration and top speed, and then come back.

I personally think the new 7 design is an acquired taste, and at first I really disliked it, but it’s grown on me. This slightly altered styling is really captivating… I love it. The light blue dash lights are a nice change from the orange. The wheels go very well with the body. The interior is inviting. The side profile is incredible. This car is nothing short of a masterpiece.

“AMG.. After Market Garbage” LOL, but I’ll rise above that.

Although BMW obviously would like to steal as many S-class sales across the board as possible they are not directley targeting the AMG models, that would at least be the job of a ’sport’, or ‘M-sport’, or ‘M7′ — which BMW do not have right now (shame in my opinion). Let’s see what the future brings, who knows – when Alpina get their hands on this engine it could be AWESOME.

Haha. Pretty insecure of you. There is a clear difference. “Race bred heritage of the AMG .. and the soft sluggish 760. ”

You can’t even compare. AMG would eat the 760 for breakfast! =)

I’m not kissing Mercedes’ ass. I’m just stating the obvious. BMW guys are afraid of a little competition. Rejoicing at any slight BMW victory. If BMW were that good, how come their fans are this insecure?

Are you kidding?!

760 hitting on the S63?!

Yes you could say that is true, but one thing we don’t know is how the accerleration is after 60 MPH. Once past around 120 MPH the Bimmer’s extra hp could help it spur on, simply because it has more power to fight the wind resistance.

Some cars use a taller first gear, then followed by shorter gears, so they are slow off the line but quicker as the speed picks up. Race cars would do this because, the only time they are at 0 is during the start and when pitting, some road cars also do this.

get em !

BMW >>>

Kay, YOU amaze me. You present data that is factually true yet doesn’t tell the whole picture and of course paints a brighter picture for MB. How about we talk about ALL the facts. Ever heard of torque? Ya.. the thing usually measured in lb-ft. Well the S600 has 612 lb-ft while the 760 has 533 lb-ft. Do the math and the S600 has 79 lb-ft more torque. Both have turbos. I don’t have full specs for the BMW 760 so I’ll compare weights for both cars using an equal engine. (2008 S550 vs 2009 750i) MB – 4,530 lbs. BMW – 4,563 lbs. So right there, I’ve just blown your argument out of the water. The BMW packs more technology and on a personal note I think the interior is shit on the MB. The new MB E class that just got redesigned has a nice interior, but I dunno what they were thinking with the S class. And about MB using the “same old engine”, um yea a 5 yr old engine is very old of course. And also just like to point out another false conclusion you made suggesting that if an engine is newer it should be able to outperform an older engine. Really? Well I’m pretty sure the 335i’s engine is newer than 2004 and it sure doesn’t put out those numbers in horsepower and 0-60 is slower too. And that’s a fantastic engine, won lots of awards. It’s called building an engine for a purpose and if BMW wanted to build an engine that put out more power that MB they could, I’m pretty sure Hyundai could do that too.

You know you’re just gonna get flamed on here eh? Aside from the fact that you have false arguments trying to burn BMW, most ppl don’t like it when you put down what they support on their own website. Go back to your MB forums and keep dreaming about BMW, we love that you keep thinking about us often!
