What you guys are saying makes perfect sense. To be absolutely honest, I would choose the S500 for myself, it is more than enough for driving around town and maybe further in the weekends...all in serene comfort and relatively economically too.

The S500 is actually a more intelligent choice than the S600 really -- and the S65 is just insane and irrational (but amazing nonetheless)....much like a Bentley Arnage T.

The S600 is a status symbol really. To the casual observer, one S class looks like any other, but to enthusiasts like us that little "600" badge makes us sit up and take notice. But if you did decide to "use your head" and buy an S500 instead ...and if your ego just couldn't handle the indignity and humiliation of the lesser badge, one could always specify the rarely chosen option of having no designation badge at all.
