Who wouldn't drive a luxury car that can accelerate better than a 911?

May be the design is older than the 7series, but sill its beautiful!

Think about the torque (800Nm), which 'comes' @ 1800rpm!!!

they try to produce sportive cars but fail every time, sure the S600 has some impressive figures but i´m dead sure the 760 outruns the S600 on an average country road, but one thing´s for sure: autobahn is S600 sovereign territory...

To complete my answer i must say that if i had the choice between a S500 and a 745i i would choose the BMW but between the S600 and the 760 i choose the S600.
:roll:

LoL.. Ofcourse no m8..
As I written before at this thread.. Bmw is much more sportive lookin.. Maybe I have to get BMW out.. But IMO a 20 25 year old guy looks funny at S600..

between 745Li and s500
i chose bimmer

BUTTTT

s600 and 760Li

i choose s600

i do belive the new 7 series interior is superior then benz, and i like the look of 7 series

but the s600 can kill ferrari, etc on straight line... so i pick s600.. is a beast

In the 60's-70's-80's Mercedes became an icon, and now its the King of cars!

In these decades BMW had only a few "good" models(2002ti, 635csi)...BMW started to be good from the end of the 80's...but before their cars lasted till
their warranty... Mercedes was always more liable than BMW! Sorry!

But still, BMW makes better engines then Mercedes...

A poll should be added. I am pretty sure the BMW is winning but who knows what happens when this gets to page 2!

BTW: visit this thread and tell me if you guys dont agree with me!

S Class I reckon; i just hate the way the 7 series looks (look at the other post about Chris Bangle leaving BMW for similar opinions) and it always ws deisgned to immitate the orginal. We all you know that the copy is never as good as the original..

i would easily choose the 760 over an s 600, it has more presence, it handles better, the quality of the interior is a lot better and i find it a lot more interesting to look at.As far as power is concerned i ve heard rumors about an updated version of the 760 with almost 500 bhp
