The £250,000 Mercedes S-Class! [S65 Final Edition]

I visit Amari Supercars to check out an incredibly rare and expensive Mercedes-Benz... the S65 Final Edition. This might be the last time we see a V12 engine in an S-Class so Mercedes have given it an almighty send off with this limited edition car.
To see more of Amari's stock, check their website:
www.amarisupercars.com/
The limited-edition special S 65 Final Edition model from Mercedes-AMG (combined fuel consumption 14.2 l/100 km, combined CO2 emissions 325 g/km) marks the pinnacle of the 6.0-litre V12 biturbo engine's long success story on board the S-Class Saloon. The special edition, comprising only 130 vehicles worldwide, is aimed at collectors of exclusive vehicles and fans of superlative twelve-cylinder engines. With its stylish looks and a comprehensive scope of standard equipment, this saloon embodies a unique combination of performance and prestige value.

The fact that this generation is the best looking s class ever this one has the legendary V12 which will never be produced again! The 2021 s class is hideous and not even comparable to its predecessor. In the end if you buy this S65 it’s really a win-win situation having the best model and a rare one. WOW

[@seenthroughglass]

I kind of agree! As ludicrous as the price is, I think this car is actually quite amazing

[@bigmini2870]

I think we should wait and see with the New S Class. I remember when spy shots of this one came out everyone was saying how bad it looked compared to the last generation. It will most likely grow on us like every S Class before.

[@socalguy829]

given the way big Mercs depreciate, when these are sub £100k in a few years, it will be a lot of wafty barge for the money

[@philip1470]

Tbh this engine was never that impressive. It was designed in the 90's during the Daimler-Chrysler partnership and improved ever since and therefore was all about being cheap and efficient instead of an over engineered german gem. It's kind of pathetic. Which is why it's just a 3 valve per cylinder and one camshaft per bank of cylinders. The Previous and only other V12 Mercedes made was the M120 and that thing is awesome.

[@Nemanjap995]

@@socalguy829 I'm not sure about this because if it proves that it is the last generation with a V12 engine, and since it's also a limited edition car, the parice could also appreciate in value.

Freddie Jones My father has the Naim in his Mulsanne and honestly it’s amazing I had the opportunity to be around few luxury cars and although they are all similar and quite honestly a normal human wouldn’t be able to tell a drastic difference between them, the Naim just sounds special and extremely crisp if that makes sense.

V12 for the next S-Class Generation has already been confirmed. However, this will probably be the last time that we will be seeing a V12 in an AMG S-Class.

[@HassTahir]

[@shiznuts]

This is what I imagine my Turkish barber be driving around in. And just slapped on silly bronze spraypaint accents and a 'V12 biturbo' badge from the decals & badges bin. It clashes so hard with the chrome, which they either needed to have bronzed out too or blacked out. Never would I have looked at this and go 'that's gotta be a 250k luxury V12'. I'd rather have the SL65 AMG Black Series. Now that looks the business.

God what a baller car. You are right in that the bronze doesnt work. I love this car, but a normal s65 does just fine. Sadly, the interior in that car can be had on a base s450 (USA base), just without the carbon, but you can order the full leather package and the Burmester High End audio. I had the pleasure of sitting in an s65 once (owned by Bill Marriott, yes that Marriott), and i was blown away by just how cool and understated this car is. Another great video Sam.
