2011 MB S63 - 2011 Mercedes-Benz S-Class
By cuni - July 16 - 7:54 amThe only way that I could possible love this car is if I had never owned a 2008 version. The "ecco" drive system is a bust. Luxury sports sedans with this much power should not have to be coaxed out of the starting blocks. Add to all of this the fact that I have to add a quart of oil every other month and Im so mad at MB that I could holler!. Why would you take a perfectly fine luxury sedan(2008-2010) and ruin it like this. Im also tikced off at the three delaers who told me that there was major differences between the 08 and 11.(I live in a smaller market and none of the local dealerships had a car I could drive prior to purchasing the 11). Future S-63 buyers--Save your money!

2011 S63 AMG - 2011 Mercedes-Benz S-Class
By mmc6 - December 14 - 4:26 pmTraded in my 2008 S63 AMG for a 2011 S63 AMG, and couldnt be more disappointed, the 2011 is a dog in comparison. The pedal is squishy and sloppy with absolutely no feel under foot. The marriage between the engine and transmission is horrible, it is rough, clunky and far from smooth. Because i had a previous S63 which completely out preformed this 2011, i have a hard time driving this new one, specifically because it brings so much disappointment. This will be a money loosing short lived car for me, dont waste your money, find a clean 2008 youll be much happier.
