I never comment on youtube, but with all the negativity online I wanted to counter that, and compliment you on an awesome review. For unscripted, while driving commentary and review I think your among the best in the business and getting better all the time. So many automotive you tubers are painful to watch that I rarely make it through, and some of the bigger budget stuff is so scripted I don't feel like I'm getting a complete and honest review. Anyways, keep doing what you do, we appreciate it.
Ryan Cole right on!! So true, it is hard to get through most other reviews. Its routine for me to watch these videos each day lol gets a "like" regardless.
I’m late with this, but I wanted to thank you. After originally seeing your review of the S63 Cab two years ago, I went hunting. Took your advice on depreciation and found an 18 month old car with 5000 miles for $120000. It might as well have been brand new, but 100K less. It has been the most amazing car I’ve ever owned. Big thanks for your review
@@CylinderHeadE60 I just bought a coupe for 90k Canadian. Half price off original isn't so bad . Doubt they will hit 50k as Benz is no longer making s class coupes
Traveling, shooting video, editing video, keeping up with tons of fan submissions, working deals with manufactures and businesses....? And I'd say highly likely working far more than a standard 40 hour work week. That's "work hard".
If you need to have someone define "Hard work" for you then you have probably never worked hard. Matt and the smoking tire crew spend alot of time making sure we get 4 one takes a week. There is alot more going on then just filming there cars. And all of this to produce content that i believe dont make much of a profit. This is one form of hard work.
Sebastian Lindenthal Yes, Brabus is the most exclusive one but I've seen some of them driving S63 AMGs, maybe it's because of the economical difficulties felt around the whole world or I don't know, but since I while AMGs are good enough for them. Even the mob isn't the same like it was, huh? :D
what about Mansory? I heard they are even more "elite" than Brabus. Those peeps will also expect you to pay something like 450 000 euros for a fully tuned S65/63 Coup or even Sedan.
Anthony Abelardo I dont know, I am rather asking. Though their salons are super hardcore customized and they also work on basicly tuning exotic supercars that already have default prices like 600k. That is why I am asking.
Owning a S65 AMG I know how great this car is! And I know how Matt must have felt during his drive in traffic and what not .... this car is nothing but pure joy to have/own/drive ...except the costs tho...insurance, gas, service, parts, etc etc.... but all that is forgotten once you step on it and you feel the kick in the back, the grunt, the torque, doing 190 mph.....
Not usually into these luxury type of cars, I am more of a bargain performance kind of guy. That being said this is one phenomenal car and for the first time I understand the premium in price that you pay for luxury. Great review, stunning car.
I got a chance to spend some time with the S63 AMG Coupe so time ago and it really left me speechless. At the time I was driving a lot of luxury and exotic cars for work and like Matt, I didn't want to give it back. If the car I'd driven had been convertible, I would have felt even worse about handing it back. Those dynamic seats are just incredible, the magic body control, the adaptive cruise with emergency braking, those screens, the Swarovski crystals... I don't know... Mercedes have set the bar so high with this car, everything else just seems mundane afterwards. Great review.
Another great One Take! You always seem to cover the things I'm curious about that others never mention. The details about the transmission, the massage seats and what it's like to park and maneuver in tight spaces. I hope Ferrari sends you a GTC4Lusso, I'd love to hear your thoughts on one of those.
Awesome, looking forward to both videos! I bet the 488 Spider was amazing, I saw the pics on your Instagram and that blue is stunning. Anyway, thanks for the reply!
The S-Class coupe and convertible have such presence on the road...I love 'em. The new C-Class coupe looks like a baby one of these (although not nearly as nicely finished/proportioned)...MBZ's current styling trend is spot-on IMO.
Hard top would make this thing go from 0-60 in 5 seconds. Heavy af. Top down all of the time in this thing and if the weather doesn't allow for it I just wouldn't drive it that day.
Jvst Dame Media yea on small cars like the slk ot the new slc or the sl... but not on a s coupe.. just look at the 4 series hardtop cabrio.. looks hideous
The biggest testament to the quality of this car is how quietly you're speaking and even at speed, your voice is crystal clear without raising your voice. Incredible vehicle; great video, Matt!
The way dude is talking about the car is like an Italian man telling you how ''Orecchiette with raw tomato sauce'' is made. That's how you know dude is really in love with this S63 cabriolet....i swear he would've swapped his wife and children for that car if permitted
***** I'm sure one day you will realize I have humor, and to have a fool that thinks one has no humor from my previous statement alone is not a good test, today could be that day however for you.
Yes you do! But look at it this way: You are not 70 years old with the need to show everbody that the thing between your legs which is just as small as your hands actually still works if you swallow enough blue pills.
My old cheap corolla rewards me in many ways. Of course there is the reward of dependable motoring all year around. But the main one is not having to go away from home unless I want to.
Thank you for all the hard work and reviews over the years! This AMG is a spectacular example of technology and design, crazy how far they have taken things... a long way from my W203 C55 AMG, love for the old and new.
14:45 6yrs later you can find one for around 65k with 60k or less, good prediction I’d say, I’m lookin to get one with my dad and they still look amazing
That is really nice executive motor. I am a big fan of the coupe, but in the right location the convertible just makes it perfect cruiser. Just effortless driving across europe or the states.
Bigchubby the amount of electronic in this, it wouldn't be worth the 10k investment. Will cost a fortune every time little something goes wrong, something large and your looking at small house deposit.
Matt, I feel like the vert is more appropriate than the coupe for this car. I'm not a huge fan of the style of the coupe for some reason but with the top down holy cow does it look like an elegant cruiser, lovely.
@TheSmokingTire I did over 1000 miles in the new E class in 1 day a mostly on motorway I can't praise enough the merc advance cruise control. You need to learn how to use it to your advantage. It takes time to get it right but once you do it is so rewarding. I did constant 160km/h day/night, rain/dry without any problem. You just put one hand on the steering wheel and once in a while you shake it little bit, not enough it will affect your direction but enough the system know you still hold the wheel. Some time you need put some input when lines are not clear etc, but after while you will learn to predict when the car will need your help or when not. The car did 99% of steering for me for whole journey. It was amazing experience.
when u have any car With More torque than HP that just means that the low end power is amazing and the top end is just as phenomenal!..... By the way great video badass call f****** love it love the car actually I always love 2000 S500 Mercedes-Benz.... TO me I love that big boat with that 5.0 engine LOL but there is not very many More left in good shape at all and the one's that are are Worth the extra money BUT it's always to much for ME!!!!! LoL..... thanks again for your badass video!!!!
I love this car but the coupe with it's huge moon roof is enough sky for me. When you take the top off you lose all of those beautiful lines the coupe had. It looks like a longer C Class convertible whereas the coupe has distinction.
NikoBell12 oh man I pulled up next to a C class convertible with the AMG styling pack, and it was shockingly close. From more than 50 feet away the two cars are all but identical. That bugged me. Then I turned the massage seat back on and forgot.
The irony of the hard work comment is that the more likely somebody is able to afford this, the less they actually work. If they're smart, they have suckers like us do the work for them!!
Just want to add my 2 cents worth, i really enjoyed your narration, the driving, covering the features, and your qualified opinions..All in the right amounts. Just subscribed ! So tired of those youngins with balls yet to fall, attempt to do a car review with a language that only a teen can relate to and excessive time focussed on the shinny bits of the car.. Well done to you !
Hey Matt, I just thought of a cool idea for TheSmokingTire videos; I don't know the car used for the start up sound in the intro animation, and thought it would be cool if every video had a different engine start up sound. And we all had to guess the engine/car ..just because. haha Probably a lot of work, but would be awesome. :)
Beautiful and awesome car, however I can't help but think about how expensive all the fancy tech is going to be to fix when it eventually breaks years down the line. Getting a fully functioning, used luxury car is going to be even more of a pain in the ass in the future. Would love to have that s63 though

You work hard Matt, time for you to get one!
L Taka define "work hard"
Traveling, shooting video, editing video, keeping up with tons of fan submissions, working deals with manufactures and businesses....? And I'd say highly likely working far more than a standard 40 hour work week. That's "work hard".

TrashedVids there is no crew. It's just me. I shoot, edit, upload and manage 4 videos a week by myself.
Even more credit to you then.
Came back 5 years later to say, Matt you are correct; it is the Greatest ~$50k used steal because of depreciation
It's a reward car for those who really work hard or Russian gangsters :)) It's definietly an O.G. car
Sebastian Lindenthal Yes, Brabus is the most exclusive one but I've seen some of them driving S63 AMGs, maybe it's because of the economical difficulties felt around the whole world or I don't know, but since I while AMGs are good enough for them. Even the mob isn't the same like it was, huh? :D
idk, no matter how much you can think, after you strategy on how to think it's far easier than any manual labor job as a career imo
what about Mansory? I heard they are even more "elite" than Brabus. Those peeps will also expect you to pay something like 450 000 euros for a fully tuned S65/63 Coup or even Sedan.
Maglev Hey, I think most people have no idea but if you've heard they are more "elite" than Brabus then most likely they are but can you find out why?

Love the way you described the car at the beginning. A reward car is definitely what that is

AMG 63's are the best sounding best driving cars i have ever had the joy of driving
A true GT car. Comfortable, refined and fast.
I had a S550 coupe 4matic and drove it back and fourth to Vegas from LA it was the perfect touring car hands down!
I couldn't even afford one of the seats in that car...
Matthias Schmitt lmao
Matthias Schmitt who needs seats when you can take them out for Weight reduction bruh
because your life is meant elsewhere...
Never been a huge mercedes fan but this one is tempting

Matt, I am a very hard working drug dealer. Do I deserve one of these?
Yes!
john m pharmacists do, at least in the uk
john m don't ask questions. Just say yes
***** Last time I checked, American pharmacists earn around $80,000 a year on the low end, and about $115,000 on the high end.
Pretty damn good.

Tim Tursonoff Pointless comment. The people who buy this only want new models. Once it's no longer new it's no longer relevant.
Tim Tursonoff its 120k now,depreciates 25% a year which is great

Matt farah, i bet you thought youd never have "it doesnt drive itself" as a criteria when reviewing a car when you first started youtube
Z33NY true that.
Over 13 minutes in before you talked about the turning radius? What is the world coming to???
***** We will never know.
He talks according to what comes to mind. It's better than having the presentation prescripted I think.

@@N54B30BMW holy shit the cope is palpable
strong pleb energy

I never heard Matt talk about a car like that....I thought he was gonna cry cause it was so good.
You know he's enjoying those seats when he forgets what he was talking about lol "oh right, comparisons" 😏 great vid Matt
Definitely a luxury car. Whenever I see cars like these it either a "soccer mom" or old geezer. Whatever floats your boat.
Coolest Camry I ever saw.
Nice review. In my opinion the S Class Coupe is the best luxury coupe regardless of the MSRP when new or the depreciation rate when used.
Both the ONE TAKE and Ignition were next to each other, I picked One take!!
You really can't appreciate how large this vehicle is until it sits next to a Suburban. HUGE two door vehicle.
I think i'm in love with the road and the view than the car.
I'd say in 4 years it'll be about 76 Grand-ish...
One of the best overall cars of all time!
s63 coupe is one of my dream cars of the moment.
My old cheap corolla rewards me in many ways. Of course there is the reward of dependable motoring all year around. But the main one is not having to go away from home unless I want to.
God, I wish I had roads like these where I live.
That is a sweet, really classy car.
Man, luxury cars are beginning to be on a whole new level.
I shit you not, that same Jacqueline built the engine on our old 2014 SL63... What a lady!!
Thank you for a great presentation, Matt!
I sat in one of these and my whole perspective of luxury change, this level of confert feels like home
The audio is much better on this video compared to your older videos, your voice isn't being drowned out by engine noises.
ur definition of hard work... wow, i see why women think how they think cant be mad... made the rest of us look average seesh
Thank you for all the hard work and reviews over the years! This AMG is a spectacular example of technology and design, crazy how far they have taken things... a long way from my W203 C55 AMG, love for the old and new.

Dream car for sure
Man you give a great car review , u should be a car salesman . I want this car so bad .
What a gorgeous machine
Lol matt at the end was about to say ''This will be the greatest 50000 dollar car that no one ever bought'' haha, nice recovery.
has a cabriolet, drives with the roof up on a beautiful day...

Lovely car but Fast forward to November 2026, this car will cost between $13k-$25k in used car lots.
Bigchubby because only rich people can afford to maintain this car and rich people don't drive old cars
Bigchubby the amount of electronic in this, it wouldn't be worth the 10k investment. Will cost a fortune every time little something goes wrong, something large and your looking at small house deposit.
This is a car you don't skip the extended warranty.
All of you are VERY right.
focused313 You got a foreign?
This car from the outside lacks panache for the price...but the interior is what I need!! Fantastic review as usual Matt.
Rolls Royce is double the cost of this car so I would hope so. :) A comparably priced Bentley Continental Convertible has the panache expected.
Because its a bentley*
Matt, great shots! You just sold me the car at the 1 min mark.
Matt, I feel like the vert is more appropriate than the coupe for this car. I'm not a huge fan of the style of the coupe for some reason but with the top down holy cow does it look like an elegant cruiser, lovely.
That was a "lovely" One Take!
The best car ever
Driven the regular coupe....the seats were amazing and the bolsters are much faster (like you said) than previous models. Power is very good.
These are going to be something else to restore down the line.
@TheSmokingTire I did over 1000 miles in the new E class in 1 day a mostly on motorway I can't praise enough the merc advance cruise control. You need to learn how to use it to your advantage. It takes time to get it right but once you do it is so rewarding. I did constant 160km/h day/night, rain/dry without any problem.

A 1.5L D15B SOHC VTEC engine to be exact.
Flame Beats yea but it's not vtec tho
Actually it's much better than VTec because it is continuously variable, and backed up by two snails. VTec is OldTec.
beautiful car
If I could have a two car garage of any new cars, supercar and daily. This would be the daily, in coupe form
First Guy who looks big in a S Coupe Version. :D
I love this car but the coupe with it's huge moon roof is enough sky for me. When you take the top off you lose all of those beautiful lines the coupe had. It looks like a longer C Class convertible whereas the coupe has distinction.
NikoBell12 oh man I pulled up next to a C class convertible with the AMG styling pack, and it was shockingly close. From more than 50 feet away the two cars are all but identical. That bugged me. Then I turned the massage seat back on and forgot.

The S600 Cab most be the ultimative GT! :)
Screw the AMG, I'll take that 50th anniversary Submariner you got there Matt haha
he doesn't wear a rolex. he has stated what kind of watch it is in previous videos.
Joe Marcello nope. It's a 50th anniversary Rolex Submariner
I believe you are incorrect. Send me the link to prove me wrong.

way outta my league unreal though

the price of this car is just good. affordable for a car like this
I agree about with your observation in the steering wheel! That's why why downgraded my wife's S63 sedan to the standard wheel.
wow, i was shocked by Matt's insight, in the intro
Beautiful and awesome car, however I can't help but think about how expensive all the fancy tech is going to be to fix when it eventually breaks years down the line. Getting a fully functioning, used luxury car is going to be even more of a pain in the ass in the future. Would love to have that s63 though
