Mercedes S65 AMG V12 BiTurbo W222 // REVIEW on AUTOBAHN

[@W222_S-Klasse]

The exterior and interior of the W222 S Class are completely superior to the W223 in all aspects and are beautiful.

[@superchargedturbo]

The best S ever

[@SwiftHDX]

The W223 interior is a joke in comparison. The exterior of the W222 is elegant, unlike the aggressive and arguably ugly W223.

[@I1357-t3m]

The W222 S-Class is German style, but the W223 ASS-Class is Chinese style.

This W222 S Class is 10 years old, but still looks like it could have came out in 2023~~ such a timeless, classy design that can't be replicated by the current S Class even.

[@Lucas-ck1po]

​@@memorimusic420 Hybrid crap, no V12 anymore, tesla-like screens everywhere. Its a luxury car indeed with the best materials but the design feels copy-pasted from the same language adopted by half the automotive industry nowadays. The w222 had in 2019 a "final edition" S65, which was the farewell to the proper thing. If im not mistaken, the w223 gen line doesn't even have an S65 anymore, the fastest is the "S 63 E Performance" which has their 4.0l V8 and some eletrification. Its over.

[@memorimusic420]

@Lucas-ck1po yeah i agree but thats not woke thats just shitty quality lmao. I just didnt understand what the fuck woke had to do with anything lol

[@Lucas-ck1po]

@@memorimusic420 Well, at least i think he meant the choices of following crowd trends, doing what everyone else is doing in spite of your own thing. Anyways, I don't think they are a case of bad quality, the materials and engineering is excelent and the interior materials are probably the finest in the automotive industry, for a car such as E, S classes or 7 Series etc. But regardless of how well they put all of it together, its just a nice execution of the same trendy interiors everyone else is doing. Every new BMW, Tesla, Cadillac, every other startup EV companies from China etc. Here in my country we are being flooded with these BYD, GWM, Haval, Cherry whatever cars that are all the same. Very little buttons, all screens everywhere. And for the general public and reviwers, the larger, the more impressive. Thats it. This is why brands like BMW, Mercedes, Lexus, Cadillac, Toyota, even the new Ford Mustang has a cheap tablet for instruments. Its just a lower quality execution of the same thing VW is already doing and VW's execution is just a lower quality execution of what the luxury brands are all doing. I wouldn't use "woke" to describe it but it kinda fits. Its just the same recycled generic crap everywhere.

[@v12-s65]

We need a review of a facelifted coupe S65. Those are super rare and non opf I believe. The sweet spot of a modern Mercedes, still is very up to date and looks better than everything else they sell now.

[@alfienaylor1587]

It's definitely going to be a legendary car in the future like how w140 is now

[@hope6571]

In my humble opinion, those V12 starters are one of the best things you can ever hear from a car. Doesn't matter if its Benz, BMW or Audis diesel craziness, it always sounds amazing!

[@gjoke_pro]

Same. Rode in the back of a hired one on my wedding day. Nearly got the whole event cancelled because I didn't want to get out 😂. Nothing I hear on KZbin does it justice, that V12 sounds like luxury.

Had the pleasure too, nothing beats that cold start and then getting massaged and warmed by those seats 😂👌🏼

[@S65Finland]

I have the only W220 S65 in Finland and this is from 2004. And it is outstanding. The engine and the car feels crazy. And the fact how long this M275 -> m279 was produced is really something. True something!

What I love when you start, no silly chimes. Just the exhaust sound.

[@maciejbrozek4666]

1. You can listen to the starter non stop and not get bored. It's like starting a big militarny machinę not a limo. 2. The ease of doing aby autobahn speed is mindblowing. No matters how fast you're going the engine can always give you more. What a machine! p.s. I fully agree that 222 is so much more elegant and nice, especially inside, than 223.

Wow, wow Max! There’s no need to call me an old men! 😂 I’m in my early 30’s and I have an S65AMG but also an S63AMG. I believe I’m still a young men 🤔😂 By the way, you described the S65 perfect. The part where it gets faster as it goes through the gears and also the way this car makes you feel. I also love my S63AMG but if I had to keep just one car, I’d keep the S65AMG. The V12 really is a special engine and something that we will never see again

[@jasko8991]

Look the % of gas on dashboard, for 2minutes and 30 seconds takes 5% the fuel of gas 😮 INCREDIBLE!!!

I love mercs , I am a fanboy tbh but really , I was looking and thinking the same ... almost 10% in less than 5 mins ... :( ... I think that is another price of a V12 ...

[@HANSOMIR]

I watched the video actually couple of times.... This car sits in a group of its own, there isn't anything like it. Yes, there might be Bentleys and AUDIs and RR, but this is something extravagant, yet simple, not giving any of its characteristics away, now yelling "LOOK AT MEEE, I AM AN AMG!" This is a car, that needs a special minded person, and I say it in a very good meaning. It's a very smooth and elegant murderer, that craves for more when you give it more. A masterpiece, trully

@12:02. I think you're right about the torque limit thing. Av few tuners have looked at this and it's why Mercs don't often seem as fast as the raw numbers might suggest. Why? Probably down to cost. As Pirelli say, "Power is nothing without controL".

[@samsep0]

I had a Mercedes GLS. It worked great until 65000 miles when the first problem started with the chair massage function. It cost me $2000 to replace a $120 tube. The second problem was around 75000 miles when the engine stopped working all of a sudden and the dealership said these types of engines die at around 75k to 100k miles due to a bad lining chemical. The cost to replace the engine was $35000 which I didn'tdo because you can only buy similar engines. Btw the dealership (both associates and the manager) kept recommending to sell the car to an unsuspecting buyer which is unethical on another level. The only honest thing they said was recommending not to buy Mercedes anymore because of their issues. They said they themselves drive japanese cars!
