Smile An S600 question for US and European lovers.

I should make this a poll but anyway how many would like to see the S600
come standard with the AMG sport-package. Do you believe thats too loud?
should the S600 stay quiet, or have a little more dash in standing out from rest of the MB lineup.

Re: An S600 question for US and European lovers.

The way it is right now is just fine with me. Leave the AMG look for the AMG's, and the 550's only.

Re: An S600 question for US and European lovers.

I think it should just be an option on the S600 like all the other S-Class models.

Re: An S600 question for US and European lovers.

The S600 should be stealth.. the few extras that shows that its a 600 is enough..
the badges,the rimms and the flat exhausts..

but ofcourse if someone wants AMG package it should be a no cost option on such expensive car..

but i would never go AMG with a 600 in that case i would buy the S63

Re: An S600 question for US and European lovers.

AMG-kit should not be standard on the S600. Some people wouldn't not like that since there are those who even debadge their 600 Benzo. Personally I would kit my S600 with AMG, just because I find the AMG-kit to be much more subtle than the S63.

I agree with Luw here.

Re: An S600 question for US and European lovers.

I believe the S600 should stay quiet. It should appear to the world as the ultimate luxury sedan and not trying to be another sporty sedan with an AMG sport package.

Re: An S600 question for US and European lovers.

For the price the 600 should have some distinguishing characteristics from the 550. Different airdam, diff. grill would be a good start. There is really nothing to distinguish the 600 asthetically other than the badging. Wheels are interchangable.

I agree, I should have said the sport-package, thats what I ment. The AMG kit would be way too loud, heck it`s like 40% louder than the sport look imo.

this is what I`m talking about.

I completely agree, the S600 should stand out from the S500. This is my point exactly! just think, the S600 has a Bi-Turbo V12 that possesses 122 more ponys than the S500 and has much more standard equipment. Yeah, the S600 should come standard with the sport kit I believe!
