Re: AMuS compares S 500, LS 460, 750i, and guess what??

Seems like this thread is much ado about nothing... AMuS has a long history of MB bias (just ask cawimmer or Just_me who has been researching the test results) so don't be afraid, MB will still win the most tests by a large margin.

How can that be? I remember that Auto Motor und Sport already tested BMW and Mercedes, and S class won. How can exactly same cars now change? And how can they now prefer facelifted Toyota to Mercedes??
Hi!! Here are the scans http://www.germancarzone.com/interna...-ls-460-a.html !
I can't believe that they changed the test result - I think it's a mistake...

Thanks Ree, sorry for my repost.
Did you guys notice that they even confused their results? In reality it is a Mercedes who accelerates faster and breaks better, on their site it seems to be BMW. How can they be so inaccurate??

Re: AMuS compares S 500, LS 460, 750i, and guess what??

This what AMS readers prefer. When I clicked the link, I saw that the S-Class placed last, and in the scans, 1st place. HUH???





Thanks for the scans REE.

And yeah, AMS is generally very MB biased - because they're in Stuttgart!

So, more points means lower position.

Or the positions are wrong. Because S500 has highest scores, and 750i the lowest ones.
