Hey guys and welcome! Today Marcus drives the 2017 Mercedes-Benz S63 AMG with the owner, Jesse, to see what the car is all about. Mainly, the fact that its lost over $100,000 of value in the first year of depreciation on the road. It's an exceptional automobile, but there's just something about German depreciation that keeps most of us away from the brand new AMG cars. The torque is monstrous, the looks sharp, and the interior is the nicest i've been lucky enough to sit inside. Enjoy!

Depreciation, good for me. I love getting cars used. Same experience at the fraction of the cost.

[@augustortiz]

Rookie To Pro the higher mileage the better usually. People are scared but they are usually the most reliable ones

[@logical23legend]

Exactly

[@DaygoG]

Seats that have already been farted in hundreds of times. No new car smell for you.

[@Hisham23633]

Rookie To Pro Not the same experience at allllllllll.

[@rookietoprobuildz]

Well I detail the car right away, but I understand. You enjoy farting on the seats first? @ Daygo G

[@MrEvilTag]

Its worth it to buy used, apparently.

[@Jxt69]

[@steven19767]

Thanks

[@thk420]

Thanks

[@michaelscott6216]

Depreciation is a poor man’s best friend

[@alexanderb7791]

Exactly there's nothing like buying a new car and enjoying it for yourself. If you can afford a 200k car 100k over 3 years is not a big deal.

[@eastbaystreet1242]

Depreciation is also a rich man's best friend: saving $100,000 here and there adds up ... can make you a rich man.

[@heekim3373]

Got my mom a 2016 AMG S63 coupe 1 owner CPO early this year for Mother’s Day. Best CPO buy ever. MSRP $183k. Got it for $61.5k before taxes etc. Got it when the pandemic car market initially dropped heavily, before the used market lost its mind and prices started climbing up. I could sell it now for more. :)

[@justinwalker4975]

Shit buy me one 😍

[@RealForexFunded]

This is a great one! Easily 90k + now

[@georgiadriven]

@@justinwalker4975 exactly lol

[@AamirJavedKhan]

Thanks you depreciation

[@ay9m8an]

Merc King Guy it’s funny because you still can’t afford it hhh jk jk

[@AamirJavedKhan]

Ayman 8365 really funny kid really funny.

[@ay9m8an]

Merc King Guy I appreciate the compliment bro 😅

[@ak_sprite]

Ayman 8365 what you drive my guy

[@ay9m8an]

Alik Kromin I had a g37 coupe but I totaled it my stupid ass was trying to drift after watching initial d hhhh .... Right now I’m driving a 2015 camry ik ik don’t make fun of me but I’m saving to buy either a mustang gt or a hemi challenger

[@shavanirving7403]

Alright you guys today we are completely "balding out" in a S63 amg

[@RoadsUntraveled]

You win.

[@peterparker9444]

You took the words right out of my mouth as I don't ever recall seeing this dude even slightly bald the last time I watched his video??? He looks like he's 24-27 years of age?

[@MrMlbfan6]

Englebert Humperdink Views it happens to the best of us

[@SS-ug1qy]

Killed it 😂

[@leonmatterson562]

Re Lax balling out. He didn’t say balding out...lol

[@johnchao1668]

All cars depreciate “FULL STOP” but AMG depreciates the most. My 1 year old AMG GTS with 4,000km lost $80,000 and that’s after getting a 20% off the sticker price. As a comparison, 4 year old Porsche Carrera S with 17,000km lost just $70,000 and that’s after 4 years. The depreciation on the GTC is also very bad and the GTR will be worst especially when the black series version comes out. Most of the rich people with GTsR will be upgrading to the Black Series and they won’t care about how much they trade their car in for, all they want is to drive the fastest and latest. Another reason why the more expensive cars depreciate more is due to the taxes which you can’t recuperate and that rich people who can afford and want to drive those cars mainly buy new

[@NBASFAN]

Every amg is like a luxury item, when the new one comes out the old one becomes less valuable on the market. However, the exception to this rule applies only to limited production cars like the Black Editions or Black Series like the C63 507 or the SLS Black, or the SLR.

[@ZDY66666]

coming to the western market is so funny in contrast to Asia where S classes hold value (relatively). In Asia, middle end executive saloons such as Panamera, Maybachs, and S classes or high end saloons like rolls and Bentley's, roam the streets and is basically any entreprenuer's must have for a car (yes they are considered middle end, high end is more bently and rolls which many don't dare to drive it for safety and jealousy reasons rather than affordability. Also many people have dark money, showing such a wealthy car attracts too much attention and inflicted jealousy could lead to being reported and jailed, but a Maybach or S class is pretty average). They also hold their value very well. Preferences really are different.

[@Beer_Dad1975]

Depends on what part of Asia you are talking about though. In Singapore a lowly Subaru WRX could set you back over $150,000.

[@ZDY66666]

Matthew Sharpe yea, Singapore taxes are crazy. But even then there's S classes eveywhere, like with any other Asian city (less so certain south Asian areas I suppose). A maybach is worth a couple high end maxed out rollsies. But lol still drive them everywhere

[@thatpersiandude7386]

ZDY bro this s class in iran cost around 700k

[@ZDY66666]

ZirZamin production ! Crazy! But what's crazier is....I'm willing to bet if you check out certain places in the cities if not already running rampant everywhere, they are still all over the place. It's a common car regardless of the price tag. People simply have money. It's also a face and a suit. Everyone buys it to look well prepped and successful, to not be looked down by business partners. Idk the preference in Iran, but I'm sure people who own one or afford one is common enough for you to see at very minimum, once a day If you looked, if not WAY more.

[@Beer_Dad1975]

True, huge & powerful economy with a lot of people with vast amounts of disposable income - plus of course many of them would be company vehicles so they can write-down much of the tax.

[@Sangev]

That interior 😍 good choice Jesse

[@j050227]

Sangev look at all the trolls in this comment section lmao

[@j050227]

Thanks bro

[@Megaatron1]

Jesse Peng Just Anwesome Craftmenship this car. Especially love the taillights. BTW, how did you come to owning that much real estate ?

[@AamirJavedKhan]

Jesse Peng JESSE Great car

[@hamzababli678]

Sangev agree with that

[@secondsleft8924]

its dropped like 40k not 100k.... what the hell?

[@j050227]

Joe Reichel the car had a 215k sticker price brand new.

[@secondsleft8924]

i just built one same specs and it was 145k. what am I missing?

[@j050227]

Joe Reichel you must be doing it in UK pounds or something, in Canada the S63 coupe has a base price of 180k, and in the US base price is 169k before options. You can easily go over 200k with a few of the basic options.

[@samg9888]

Joe Reichel Different currency?

[@secondsleft8924]

I was doing the sedan not the coupe, my mistake, I wonder why the coupe costs 22k more than the sedan base models

[@SuperHISKY]

I think the $100,000 lost is because of the new engine upgrade and remodel. It won't depreciate that much if it has the same thing this year.

[@tonyluk112]

Depreciation yes, but not $100,000 in 1 yr...too exaggerated.

[@tmanepic]

Only 4000km in a year? So he didn't drive it at all basically.

[@meenballa999]

Rich people dont buy these cars as everyday drivers..its probably one of like 3 other cars

[@tmanepic]

Meen Balla what car is a better daily than an S class?

[@meenballa999]

+tmanepic BMW m5 in terms of parking and maintenance

[@tmanepic]

Meen Balla I have a feeling you don't know rich people

[@meenballa999]

+tmanepic I know ppl that work hard for their 6 figure income, rich people are overrated

[@norwegiantechnolover]

Well if it has lost 100000 dollars now I would say, YES, it's worth it! It's an S63!!

[@al151]

Same with all Mercedes. Used 2 years old S Class here in the states can be bought for mid 40’s! MSRP over 100 grand!

[@MrMlbfan6]

al over 100k

[@worldpeace9253]

al no that is not correct you cannot but an S class two years old for 40k. They run for mid 40s bottom 50s four years old

[@Khaloof86]

al that's probably for a base S400

[@leonmatterson562]

World Peace somewhat incorrect. You can purchase a 2015 for $35k but 158k miles. You can buy a 2016 for $45k but with 96k miles. So yes, you can purchase lower priced but with very high miles. I’d much rather pay $60 k for 30k miles.

[@leonmatterson562]

Brisdad53 you ought to check out autotrader before spouting your own bullshit.

[@twilson1973]

Nice video. In my opinion the S550/S63/S65 Coupe is the best looking modern car.

[@manospapanicolaou2028]

it is arguably one of the prettiest, if not the prettiest, mercedes coupes ever, it has a loud ass v8, handles like a dream (so they say), and has one of the prettiest interiors in any car ever... its is also very very very rare... when petrol-powered cars die out, and rich people who love cars are looking for a car which stands out and is genuinely enjoyable, this thing will cost otherworldly amounts...

[@ThePSNGamer14]

This is why I don't buy new cars ever, because they lose value quickly.

[@dylanw890]

I love the unique angles you shot of the dashboard. I never knew how sweeping and long that dashboard really was! But anyway, this such a sexy and sleek car. Get it in the cabriolet and this is an awesome "look at me" car. I wish they had the neck scarf vent in the coupe cause on cold days, it would be nice to have warm hair blowing on my neck as my heated seats and heated armrests are going.

[@Cychopath99]

The 2018 S63 Coupe do have the neck scarf vent as an option.

[@ghs7714]

Dylan Wells your hot Dylan xoxo

[@BlackHatProductionsx]

Misleading title...it did not lose 100k in a year. It lost 65k-70k in value. Still alot but not 100..

[@chasevineland1508]

It’s the reason why I drive Benz’s... you feel like a boss and traffic seems to just not matter.

[@AudioImpression]

Fantastic car but the depreciation is on another level, 196k msrp 2017's going for 90-100k with 10k miles and fully optioned like the video.

[@jacekp8366]

a bargain fitted with the last good sounding v8 from amg

[@jbrenofficial]

If this is faster than a 458 Italia it does 0-60 in less than 3.4 seconds which even with that power and torque I find hard to believe.

[@RoadsUntraveled]

Alright alright it was a bit of an exaggeration :p But it's very close, especially when you consider how much the S63 weighs and that it's acceleration isn't on the top of the list of priorities.

[@HEKTIC458]

Joel Brennan its not quicker than a 458 unless the S63 is modified.

[@j050227]

Roads Untraveled it has more HP and a ton more Torque than the 458 Italia

[@jbrenofficial]

Jesse Peng and a ton more weight. It's far less balanced than the 458, the gearbox isn't as savvy, the engine revs more like a freight train and pulls with less flexibility than the Ferrari, and not to mention the weight distribution of the Merc.

[@jbrenofficial]

Jesse Peng that doesn't mean much because Motor Trend timed a Mazda MX-5 and Charger Hellcat around Willow Springs and the Miata was faster.

[@Hacker07Gaming]

I've driven the 2015 s65 and honestly it's too heavy to put all the power down. I think a 2015 e63 is perfect.

[@catalinxnecula]

do you even think about what are you typing? too heavy to put the power down? what the fuck are you talking about?

[@alexandertony2475]

Catalin Ionutz lmao i think he meant to say its so heavy the power isnt enough

[@catalinxnecula]

i never heard anyone complaining they dont get enough power from that v12 in the s65.

[@seanbrenchley]

Catalin Ionutz - Haha that was exactly what I was going to say. Plus, this video isn’t even about the 65 😂

[@davidwade7681]

Yup S63 is faster then the s65

[@thatpersiandude7386]

I wish i was in America, here in Australia these cars are hold value

[@brock2273]

This is in Canada bro

[@senitnelav]

South Africa too :(

[@quickz187]

Which is in North America.

[@seagramrip187]

ZirZamin production ! Yeah your correct we get ripped of in australia

[@HEKTIC458]

ZirZamin production ! I hear ya bro. The chespest one in the country is $200k. Aussie used car market is fucked.

[@josemedina6167]

I’m 13 years old and I don’t understand why the AMG products devaluates so much, can someone explain to me please?

[@l.d.3498]

Perfect, this means I can afford one, and I work on all of my cars.

[@aquabatzap7698]

One of my dream cars. It’s beautiful.

[@jeremeylin4805]

You should do a video on the Audi S8 in comparison :)

[@steven19767]

AMG stands for ..All my money gone..lol

[@laroyrichardson]

If you buy it for the right price used can sell if for pretty much the same price you go bought it for= Free!

[@whal8y]

I am considering it... they can be had with low teens miles for about low 80ks. Now, I also want a 911 CS, or E63s, or an Aston... good times for some low mileage used cars and the bitch of depreciation.

[@smvsounds]

A Benz dealer in nyc told me to buy it used and save big bucks!

[@karinaleblanc9208]

so excited to get one! favorite car ever.

[@jdord4838]

Great review, looks like this is a great car to pick up in 4 years, keep up the good work.."Yeshua (Jesus Christ) is the way"

[@protoculture289]

What's even more eyepopping than the speed is the repair bills.

[@cglawrence]

am I the only one who thinks AMG exhaust sounds like blowing into a fan like when you were a kid?

[@rodneyboswell536]

SO WHAT. STILL WORTH EVERY PENNY! ONE OF THE BEST COUPES PERIOD!

[@Food4Thought66]

The windows are thick because they are filled with a gas that keeps the windows from fogging up! The extra glass also makes it quiet

[@florianthomas7852]

Depreciation will be even worse when no one wants to have gasoline cars anymore.

[@whitewolfstudios4727]

I heard if the engine goes, it'll cost 100k to get it replaced by MB if you don't have warranty

[@turbosydney]

Then dont go to MB to get it replaced

[@dissle_atl]

who thoguht that 5 years later its gaining its worth back and even more

[@Porsche1969]

So what...??? The quality of this car is amazing! What "depreciation" is in your country, doesn't fucking matter...! Greetings from Germany!

[@James-iw4fz]

mercedes are so good they could put whatever price they like people would still buy them brand new no matter what. thats how it seems to me

[@bossm5returns]

Still one of the best in the class. Rich people doesn't give a single fuck about value loss over a year or anyone who's targeting to buy this car.

[@ashishpatel350]

Most of these cars are leased. The retail price is no where near what the actual price would be if people paid cash for their car.

[@Bimmeraudi1]

I hate front mounted licence plates.

[@darrelltuttle8298]

If it weren't for the automotive passion of two guys who love to race. Mercedes wouldn't have the AMG division.

[@michaelrackson9784]

these are amazing cars. they are built to last. thats why only a fool buys them new. i wait a good 4-5 years and buy it used. best bang for your buck. i cant wait until the s63 coupe is in my price range

[@Khaloof86]

There is no way a 2017 S63 loses 100k in value

[@j050227]

Khalifa Al Khoori not in retail, but dealership trade in (wholesale) value is 100k below MSRP.

[@MrMlbfan6]

Jesse Peng explain

[@MrMlbfan6]

Khalifa Al Khoori around 60k

[@adedoyinoluwo428]

Jesse Peng lmao not even. I sell cars. Even the used base model cost well over 70k. This video I bullshit

[@thesagarmahapatra]

Jesse Peng what do you do for a living mate?

[@d4lstuntman534]

People that buy cars like these new have money to their teeth. They know what they’re in for depreciation wise and don’t care

[@kevinyarleque6739]

What’s with the shakey cam glamour shots? Is that done on purpose? Kind of hard to understand when filming a static object.

[@Make-Asylums-Great-Again]

The king would be the s65 amg

[@Ricotraficante]

Clickbait. Show me where you can get an amg s 63 for around 67k.

[@samp43]

this is literally the case with all luxury cars. people dont buy them to flip them later and make a dollar lol. they already have enough of those.

[@foreversolvent5334]

got 1 for 60k this thing is a beast love the interior as well.

[@zaid7407]

This happens in America, these things hold value in Africa and Asia.

you purchase the car once, fuelling it up all the time, not primarily money concern

[@benfl9636]

because they are priced way over what theyre really worth?

[@Blissfulanon]

The best couple ever made

[@SweatySantana]

I’m guessing your favorite work is seamless

[@gthausde]

Happens with all high end cars which aint limited production. No big news. Same story with bmw, audi etc. Best to buy em 2,3 Years old.

[@Bubbles99718]

It was 85k depreciation and he said that the 135k was a trade in offer. Really blurring the numbers on this one.

[@pratik1568]

Its not the car or brands fault that these cars don't hold value in north America its because of the tax registration and insurance they pay for luxury vehicles which makes car like this a pain in the ass to own every where else u go even a 2016 s63 amg goes for 200k used

[@darrelltuttle8298]

For the know it alls. Apr 16, 2018 · Long before Porsche built their first production four-door, they helped with the 500E for Mercedes. ... When Daimler wanted to build a hotrod edition of their W124 sedan, they enlisted the help of Porsche.

[@mr.mbfanatic5938]

Turn signal's are never on the right side of the steering wheel. Only a fool would mistaken the gear selector for the turn signal.

[@Roberob1189]

Why does the “c63 AMG” sound so much better???

[@marcusduffner9953]

All coupes, Mercedes, BMW etc always lost huge since the 60th. Low second hand market is the main issue. If you like if, grab it as a bargain .

[@marfigue777]

best camera man ever!!!😂

[@FMWheels]

Simple, lease one. You'll lose less than depreciation. You'll even have enough money left to buy a daily beater.

[@GoldenNada]

Because its expensive to maintain and it's not an exotic. People know this so dealers cant sell a used one for top dollar. So the value tanks.

[@charlesgordon5156]

The camera movement at the start is very annoying. Maybe I’m just used to video’s with higher production values

[@chayneteam6282]

The people who buy these cars make $100,000+ in one weekend. They don't give two shits about depreciation. Oh, and I'm not talking about the fake fucking posers who shell out their life savings on a $4,600 3-year lease. I'm talking about REAL RICH people.

[@j050227]

Chayne Team posers won’t spend 200k+ on a new S63 coupe, they would get a used 458 or huracan for the same money. People who drive S63 coupes do not want to be noticed

[@NCHobbies]

LOL i bet ICBC charges at least $12k for its premium

[@ikeo8666]

The car didn't depreciate that much. They'll buy for 125k and sell it for 150k. The only reason you're getting a low ball offer is you are selling it less than a year after you bought it. Who buys a 200k car to use for 11months? you should have leased instead

[@kinglongmoney1037]

the guys hair is the scariest shit wtf

[@alexanderup6095]

they dont lose the value, price is being adjust for what they are really cost!

I was looking at the speedometer when you did those pulls, and it looked slow as f...! Either you weren't full throttle, or the car isn't that fast

[@davidwade7681]

Yupp

[@onenerdarmy]

The reason it lost so much so quickly is because...it was NEVER really worth that much outside of dealership la la land - Signed, AMG owner. AMG's are MSRP overpriced and the free market treats it accordingly. AMG has been a part of MB for a long time now, it's a mass producer now not just a special tuner. Now if they were more competitive with Teslas they would be onto something, as it is today they are just barely beginning to catch up.

[@TAZARNHYA]

This is germany this is mercedes.

[@PCUBED09]

In OVER one year!? My 1980 Ford also lost most of its value in over one year. Just joking around.... don't get too bitter internet

[@chefjosh1973]

if the repair cost of a Mercedes was less, and Mercedes was willing to give up profit on that end, the value would hold up better and customers wouldn't lose so much on the depreciation side. A lose lose for the customer on both repairs and holding value

[@darrelltuttle8298]

The two companies entered an agreement early in 2012 for Nissan to build Daimler’s four-cylinder engines at a factory in Tennessee. Daimler will use the engines in the next-gen C-class, which begins production later this year in Tuscaloosa, Alabama, and potentially in the upcoming GLA-class compact SUV. In addition to the Q50, Infiniti’s future Q40 compact will also receive the Benz-engineered motors; it’s a handy fit, since the Q40’s front-drive platform is borrowed from Mercedes-Benz, too.

Well i think a problem is how they put the same V8 in a cars that are over 100k cheaper. Not alot of variety when it come to the engine sizes in mercedes.
