I can’t disclose how many times I’ve watched this or how many months in between each view but I will say this... The Mercedes S Class Coupe is by far the most insanely luxurious coupe with four legitimate seats in production. If you haven’t ridden in one you simply do not understand the feeling of seamlessly arriving at your destination but loving every bit of the ride, even if you’re in the back seat. Just pure motor excellence.

I actually bought one of these in 2017 after a long long while of deciding which car I was going to get. I struggled between the s550 and the s63 but eventually decided on the 63. I've got to say the car is just phenomenal, it's a blast to drive and it is just so incredibly comfortable. Overall I would highly recommend this car to anyone who was looking at a mercedes coupe as I personally think that it is far better than any of the other coupes mercedes offers.

This car is just the pinnicle of Mercedes in my opinion and ive never ever wanted a car so badly like i do this one. Even the GTR when it first came out in 2008 ive never been so enthusiastic about it like im about the S coupe. And theres more about this car besides the info in the video. This car is a tecnological step forward, it will never ever let you crash it. It will never let someone crash into you aswell. This car so well built so well engeneered its just a masterpiece you need to drive one for long term to understand what the hell it capeble of. I truly love this car.

One of the, if not the best car made in the past few years. Comfortable, beautiful, exquisite, high tech, beautiful leather, beautiful user interface, wonderful sound system. Everything's lovely about this car. Nothing's been spared. I also did a video comparing how much attention to detail this car is compared to the 6 series cabriolet because back in year 2014, 15, 16 and 17, they're actual competitors of the biggest most expensive luxury coupes from bmw and mercedes, but the moment you start comparing, the 6 series looks like a budget car in terms of finishing and detail.

I watched the other 2 Top Gear people the other day. It was bloody hopeless. Harris rules! Just give him the whole show!!!

[@fiascoke]

Just looked up whether TG has made a review of this. Finally they have. The car really is a masterpiece. I have owned and driven one for 3 years. All that Chris said and then some. Night vision, for one, is great. I had never seen one before S63. If you drive in a dark foggy road and its infrared sees humans/animals on the roadside, it switches on the night vision on the dashboard and flashes it red to let you know. The suspension is ridiculously good. As is the traction control. I haven’t had a single warranty issue or anything worth visiting the service except for regulars. Since it really is quite an old car already, I genuinely tried to upgrade. Tried 2019 Ferrari GTC4 Lusso, Panameras, R8, etc. They all felt like significant downgrades. And not just on the comfort. On wet tarmac, this still beats 700 hp Ferrari GTC4 V12 with traction, stability. Unless you’re a professional pilot, it is hard to find a car that you’d have the balls to drive faster without taking too much risk. Add the comfort & the looks, there is no car available that would beat this. 6 years after it came out.
