[@wicked_smaaht]

The big daddy of all luxury sedans. I had the chance to ride one, which had fully decked out rear seat - recline, leg rest, massage, and heated/cooled.

[@MilesPerHr]

The executive rear seat setup that you're describing is choice!

[@T1ny_J1mmy]

Same, but it was a dream 😔.

[@harleyquebecenrevue3580]

I chose the S500, used the $7000 savings VS a V8 to up my comfort options and picked it up yesterday. The S500 is very similar in performance, silky smooth and technologically more advanced vs V8. In any case, either S500 or S580 is an excellent choice, can’t go wrong.

[@eddstarr2185]

Hands down, I'd take the Mercedes S 580, especially in that awesome spec of Green/Brown - what a stunning combination. The S class encourages buyers to add features, and even the neighbors will never let you forget the options you declined. Frugal car people are advised to stay clear of the Mercedes S class as saving money is Not an option. Awesome car and awesome drive review, Miles.

[@MilesPerHr]

Those options add up quick, Edd! But the rear seats of this model needed some more

[@danielmiller9012]

I think the most important options are exclusive nappa leather, 3d tech package, and 4d sound system.

[@danielmiller9012]

and getting it in the AMG or Executive trim

[@lpmax3991]

@@danielmiller9012 I wish we can optioned up AMG line with executive seats. It’s a bummer that we couldn’t. Exterior look of the Executive line isn’t great

[@imnotusingmyrealname4566]

​@@MilesPerHrWhy did they need some more? literally nobody besides reviewers testing the rear seats is going to be back there. They should bring the SWB to NA as well. A majestic driver's car.

[@C0smic-Fear]

That is the best interior I have ever seen. I'm in love!

[@TheBS80]

During the last two years I've had a Continental GT (2020) and a S8 (2021 facelift, because Bentley postponed the ordered GT Speed four times). Yesterday I got me a S580 4M. This is my first S-Class since a 1982 380SE I bought in the early 2000s when I was young and some 560SELs which I had in my oldtimer collection a few years ago. When the W223 was released I didn't care. I didn't like the rear ("nice Hyundai") and I couldn't believe Mercedes was serious putting this interior into a car. Well...I'm absolutely in love with the car. The 4.0 V8 is great and, what I couldn't imagine month ago, I love the interior and all that technology stuff. I mean, I loved KNIGHT RIDER when I was young and now the Merc talks to me and does as I want it to do. And even if it doesn't jump, there IS a Turbo Boost... 😎 Really, this car is fantastic. The S8 was great as well, but the S-Class is a bit more modern and the MBUX is a decade more advanced than anything else.

[@georgeparaskevopoulos6601]

Great review brother! I like the interior of the new 7 series but my money would go to the Mercedes. I just like Mercedes limousines so much.

[@benlecluyse]

Amazing Mercedes-Benz !!

[@salmonjung3790]

Which vehicle were you more satisfied with, the s580 or the recently reviewed m760i? I wonder how you felt when compared in various aspects such as luxury, ride comfort, and driving texture.

[@nicolas_yt4099]

The s580 ❤

[@2bunphettered788]

2:06 min - yes, this is waaaay better looking than the new 7 Series!! 👍

[@TheSamsterGamer]

That color is amazing

[@bfgamingzone769]

Beautiful interior

[@jimj2683]

Audi S8 has the nicest interior (integrated displays and coherent design). S-class nicest exterior. 7-series probably the most satisfying to drive.

[@nsabimanadavid8]

Yes, it' s more good looking than the L 7 series

[@paulodias805]

I will choose the Mercedes-Benz S580 4Matic. That's a real masterpiece.

amazing review

Thanks for the love! Been trying to get into the AMG GT-R, but it's been tough. Hopefully one day!

[@nicka8718]

just based on looks im choosing the S580 over the 7 series. but I like the 7 series interior better

[@KANTHAYA]

My goodness that thing is wild...

[@calenroberts932]

i absolutely love the S580 and everything about it but i’d probably go S8

Obviously a performance oriented model over a non performance model

Nobody in Germany would buy this V8 500 HP car with 130 mph topspeed 😂

[@ashegheaty]

Why is that ?

[@sehunkimm]

@@ashegheaty 130 is nothing on the autobahn

[@ashegheaty]

@@sehunkimm oh i see , but know the s class buyers dont think like that !

[@sehunkimm]

@@ashegheaty youre not wrong. there is the s63 for the speedy boys.

[@user-vc5bu3ju1e]

It’s only limited to 130 in the US

[@DavidGarcia-zp1ho]

I had an s560 and just switched to a bmw i7 after testing the i7 and s580. IMO, i7 is superior in tech, luxury, and ride. Once i sat in I7 the decision was easy.

[@carmennieves1067]

I like the interior a lot

[@alans.philippines]

Car is so epic.

[@telliesmith9825]

Everything is better looking than the new 7 series but yes it is

[@victormarron9108]

S8 if I had to have 1 car, s580 if I get an m2 comp as well 😁

[@ChrisTLiuo]

I'm still not feeling the rear end, but I really like the front end.

[@j0ndevsan401]

Should have the new 7 series or go to the s class?

[@JaanPaljasma]

Excellent color combination with emerald green and brown leather.

[@matthewle4968]

The paint is absolutely beautiful

[@MercedesSLSFan]

I can only afford a pre owned 2010 toyota corolla, so this is perfect content for me 😅😅😅

[@modfus]

It's very conservative but definitely prettier than the 7er. The somewhat kitschy Maybach version, with its extra bling, betrays everything that makes the S desirable to me.

[@MercedesSLSFan]

Audi s8 when he meets s63: finally, a worthy opponent, our battle will be legendary!

[@MrsxMedusa]

would love to see a brabus review in the future. love these videos!

[@MilesPerHr]

You and me both! Trying to get in touch with them, but no response so far 😞

[@zankiohex]

I wish carmakers tried harder to properly integrate the dash screens. They often stick out like glued on tablets.

[@onetyler4676]

are the red infrared lights blinking on the instrument cluster the attention system?

[@MilesPerHr]

Yes (they're not visible to the naked eye)

[@danielmiller9012]

How's the 4d sound system compared to Naim for Bentley? I hear Naim only slightly better but they're the 2 best out right now.

[@danielmiller9012]

Already done! Check it out on the channel 👍

[@pouryy7362]

Mercedes is king

[@ashegheaty]

Maybe the hickup is because of the start stop function turning on rapidly , its extreem in bmws

[@MilesPerHr]

It's possible, but I've experienced the long startup delay in other MBs with the latest infotainment software

how many miles do you think your ctv5 will last? think it’ll last 200k?

[@MilesPerHr]

Good question! Time will tell, but I'm hoping for at least 150K

[@kyleheck8916]

@@MilesPerHr that’s a good number to be around

[@kinanhiaouassenan9314]

Dear Miles, Thanks for your goods reviews. The S8 has to be compared to the S63 (coming soon), not to the S580. And, the 130mph top speed is in your state. In some US states and in the majority of countries, the S580 top speed is limited to 156mph. And, your are right, “it’s the S580” the one to be proud to drive every single day. Merry Christmas.

[@kenstudios]

A super majority of the S580 and S500 models coming to America are electronically limited to 130 MPH. It's just something Mercedes does and won't Burge about it unless you get the AMG which is 155 or you get the European delivery. I'm on my 9th S class and all have been limited to 130. It used to be easy to remove that with a tune but when Mercedes switched to the 4L engine, the tune does not remove the top speed limiter. To remove the limiter in those engines starting in 2018 S560, you have to also do a CPC tune where the limiter is. RENNTech ECU tune is $2800 and about the same for the CPC tune as well and you have to buy the ECU tune in order to buy the CPC tune. Is it worth it? I don't thing so

[@skullft7731]

Yeah I would pick this over the 7 series but I would actually prefer the equivalent powered Audi A8 over this.

[@bmwX3guy]

I would choose the 760 I

[@alengreen589]

No because they have the Maybach and thats the Top of Luxury by Mercedes.

[@abcdLeeXY]

7 series looks like a joke. The s class will always remain the king of true luxury sedan.

[@reddevil6585]

$$$

[@MilesPerHr]

We're going to see a lot of that from car companies in the near future, sadly.

[@patrickamponsah679]

Looks nice but it seems most of the American specs lack so many features that make the interior too basic. Not even a climate control for rear seat passengers. Such features should be standard in an s class. I wonder why.

[@madamosa415]

Best than 7 series?

[@ravenheart369]

In many ways yes

[@tshidisojosh1771]

I just noticed that there aren’t any door handles,

[@Adembgh43]

Best

[@niki7040]

I would say it looks 1000 times better than the new seven.

[@williamlong2682]

I appreciate the conservative exterior looks but the LCD overkill ruins the interior for me. The center screen…eEeEeEeEeEeEeEhH fine whatever. But that gauge cluster is so poorly implemented imo and looks like a complete afterthought.

[@BomberFletch31]

Personally, I think the previous generation looks better. This new generation lacks the stately elegance of the last. I personally don't think there was any need for Mercedes to launch an all-new model. They could have simply put some new mild hybrid engines and added MBUX to the W222 and it'll still outsell the competition. And it would look a whole lot better than this car. This W223 may be better looking than the new 7 Series, but on the question of aesthetics alone, I think the last generation W222 (post 2018 update) beats them both.

[@ravenheart369]

Well said

[@femiogunsola5436]

For this price, no spare tire?

[@MilesPerHr]

Many of the cars in this segment use space saver spare tires or inflation kits

[@josephstone2280]

Nice Review but I will go with a Tesla Model S for less.

[@facunicolas]

A laggy screen at this pricepoint? really? what is so hard about making a good infotainment system?

[@MauriceBln1]

It is goog and not laggy.

[@hawalaras8891]

The door handles sound really cheap when pulling them !

[@MilesPerHr]

Honestly, they do feel cheap

[@HobbesWiilTakeGoodCareOfYou]

I think the new 7 series looks better because you can actually tell it's a new 7 series with the unique design, vs this "new" s class that looks reminiscent of practically every other sedan model Mercedes has (minus the A class).

[@so7669]

The top speed is 163, it’s just blocked for the us
