What an enjoyable video to watch! I liked the video work from the plane, had this sense of authenticity to it. Keep up the good work, also: where is the pup??
Thanks for the kind words and thanks for asking about Kumo . . . He recently chased a squirrel - against his attorney's advice - and has a leg injury. As such, letting him recover but hopefully he will back on the show shortly . . .
I purchased one of the early S Cabriolets but honestly I think you're better off with a decked out E Class Cabriolet 4Matic with an AMG style package, Premium 3, (select all options), etc and you're in the high 80's or low 90's with 90% the S at about half the price. And 99% of the people side-by-side can't tell the difference, just your bank account. The "whopping" 8 inches certainly _ain't_ in the back seat. Frankly I want a long body S Class Cabriolet or they can forget it. I'm all too often leaving my car home when going out (because no adults can stand my back seat) and using my wife's GLE 43. Alternatively, I'm even seriously considering an AMG GT C Roadster. FYI .. the exterior acceleration sound sounded like a lawn mower.
yep. bought my e class cabriolet with package 2. my kids don't know the difference. Neither do I. That is all that matters. Driving should be fun. And with this car driving is so fun.
Hey MotoMan, I've been a fan of your videos for a good year and a half or so now and I've wanted to ask you how, given your view counts, you are able to film such amazing cars? I understand that you worked in Car Design before, but how can you pur so much effort into this if the RUclips numbers don't add up (to me at least)? I don't see a Patreon either or some such, is it just the passion? I really enjoy your content, the Cara you personally like and everything you do, so please don't see this as an attack, I'm just being curious. Cheers from the south of France!
M, the editing is just as stunning as the Mercedes! Bravo, Bravo!I completely agree, all of Benz's convertibles between Bruno's 129 SL & the S convertible has been ... meh for the lack of a better term. Even the SLR Roadster looked weird.as always, excellent work, M!
Nice to see there is a company not only making CARS, but coupes.. and coupes with no top.. this car gives me so much hope even though its hopelessly out of my price range. Just so disappointing to see the market in general go to crossovers/SUVs.
Jealous that your living in LA!! WOW have been out there a few times and would love to live in Southern California!! Oh and by the way the cars pretty nice also!! Nice video MotoMan!!
Wonderfully impractical car. Is the white leather lighter than mercs usual magnolia artico ? More importantly for half a second or so when you were effusively commenting on the lack of stacks it looked like the steering touch pad now works with CarPlay? Also have they sorted using merc maps at same time as CarPlay ? Cheers
Where are the stalks! I agree, I don't want to have to look down to use something. They give us HUD, so we don't have to look down, and then TAKE AWAY the stalks. Are there 2 design groups working on this car and not talking to each other? I understand that here in Brisbane Australia, we have similar temps. During mid summer here the rule is the tops goes up at 10am and will not come down till after 5pm as our temps pass 32C. WE are now heading for Winter and our maximums are about 24 - 26C during the day. So My MGF and MGTF (modern) have the top down all the time woohoo!
Well mercedes, u cant beat turkey's tax scheme. If the car's over 2000cc there is a special consumption tax 160 percent. Plus VAT over that total price. So the new S 560 Cabriolet is (150.000 USD+150.000*1,6)*0,18= 463.000 USD
I am living in Istanbul and there not always creepy old fiat's out there you were in the wrong neighborhood next time visit istinye, besiktas or etiler every 5 second you see mercedes s class or range rover and always a ferrari or aston martin in front of the restaurants a porsche 991 will not be on the top parking on istinye because of the rolls royce and lamborghini.
I just don't get Mercedes :P I'd say they got the interior right here. Not as vulgar as the ones with shiney plastic center consoles etc. The seats looks very luxurious. And then them smack that cheap "designo" labels on the seat backs. And still that italic Arial font on the buttons and dials. The font looks cheap and Designo... Makes me think of those old SLK's with pastell colored leather that matched the paintwork. :P
After watching this car you just cannot go down anymore, sorry Kia, Hyunday, Lexus just stole the design and naming, even the badge is three quarter star.
In fairness, I did NOT push this car like I did that S63 because of where I was driving it. That is why the S63 sounds like a stuck pig in that episode and this sounds kinda like mildly sizzling bacon . . .
Motoman, just realised, u sound just like Donald Trump, especially in the hangar.. Kid you not. If listening with eyes closed it's identical. Btw, great reviews....
My how the times have changed, who would have called socal turning into a burning hell hole full of homeless walking dead covid victims, keep that roof up buddy!
You are by far the best Auto commentator, a true Video journalist. Your descriptions are so seemlessly vivid and articulate.
One of the nicest convertibles available
I saw one of these in a parking lot a couple weeks ago and was mesmerized. I had to know more about it. I love it, and I'm not into Euro cars usually.
Beautiful car and fits right in for So. Cal. How does anyone sit in the rear seat, looks like a two person car, not in a bad way though.

This car is amazing omg

Interesting point! I have the GTC, did you get one?

Dream Car!
ERICRAWLO S65 for me

Thank you, Amro . . . Missed you recently . . .
My pleasure, M.
Yea I had some issues with my ISP & this time it was the last straw, I moved on to a different company.
Nice to see there is a company not only making CARS, but coupes.. and coupes with no top.. this car gives me so much hope even though its hopelessly out of my price range. Just so disappointing to see the market in general go to crossovers/SUVs.
Lol when you said leave you on the side of the road, I was hoping for an Alfa Romeo to make an appearance 🙈🙈
ROTFLMAO!!!!
Jealous that your living in LA!! WOW have been out there a few times and would love to live in Southern California!! Oh and by the way the cars pretty nice also!! Nice video MotoMan!!
E63s please! And why does this man have only 177k subs??
Wish granted . . . And not just because of your kind words: Coming soon . . . instagram.com/p/BicTPJ3gn6f/

Good eye! Yes, it indeed does work with CarPlay . . .
He said "I think I need some time alone" lol. That is funny.
A beautiful car in a beautiful place.
MB R129 roll bar was the first application of a wind deflector.

MotoMan you should do a video collaboration with Savagegeese!
vh9network I agree
"I need to spend some time alone with this car" - Oh how I understand
What happen to 2019 Toyota Avalon Hybrid?
Are you still going to air that car?
Saturday.
when you press the gas going up hills or passing someone like at 5:02 it sounds like a go cart for some reason
Love your sunglasses. Are they Randolphs?
Good eye! As a matter of fact, they are!
can u please review the 951 in the last scene behind you?
Why I would LOVE to . . .
Aw cmon mate why didn’t we see an external shot with the roof up? Was it pink or something?
😂
Top was blue. And yes, it did look good with the roof up . . . Just didn't make the cut . . . May post one on our Instagram.
VERY NYC GOOD MERCEDES Benz CONGRATULATIONS
The crystals in the headlights should be diamonds instead!
Was that a Cirrus 22? I'll skip the MB and take that.
Good eye! Some of the aerial shots are indeed from a Cirrus SR22. You can see it here: instagram.com/p/BhUUtsVgdNc
Owned a very early one for 11 years. Miss it greatly. Love your channel. Keep up the good work!
Why dont you dona contest For your fans: Win a trip to ride along in one of your reviews.
Well mercedes, u cant beat turkey's tax scheme. If the car's over 2000cc there is a special consumption tax 160 percent. Plus VAT over that total price. So the new S 560 Cabriolet is (150.000 USD+150.000*1,6)*0,18= 463.000 USD
The wheels are to small compared to the height of the car. Especially in the back, there's too much mass on top of the wheels visually.
I am living in Istanbul and there not always creepy old fiat's out there you were in the wrong neighborhood next time visit istinye, besiktas or etiler every 5 second you see mercedes s class or range rover and always a ferrari or aston martin in front of the restaurants a porsche 991 will not be on the top parking on istinye because of the rolls royce and lamborghini.
Wouldn't expect the empty passenger seat to be shaking that much in such an expensive car.
looks just like my E class coupe interior
In Turkey, they are not crappy Fiats, they are crappy locally-built cars with an ancient design licensed from Fiat
Big car and small rear seats doesn’t make sense.
I just don't get Mercedes :P I'd say they got the interior right here. Not as vulgar as the ones with shiney plastic center consoles etc. The seats looks very luxurious. And then them smack that cheap "designo" labels on the seat backs. And still that italic Arial font on the buttons and dials. The font looks cheap and Designo... Makes me think of those old SLK's with pastell colored leather that matched the paintwork. :P
@Motomantv does it make me trash for liking white on white vehicles?
Only for this case, no.
what is your favorite convertible ever?
You sound under the weather
Was indeed . . . But, was not going to let that stop me from driving an almost 500 HP Convertible . . .
After watching this car you just cannot go down anymore, sorry Kia, Hyunday, Lexus just stole the design and naming, even the badge is three quarter star.
Nah... I'd choose Bentley Azure Convertible.
Is it just me or does the exhaust note sound horrible?
just you
In fairness, I did NOT push this car like I did that S63 because of where I was driving it. That is why the S63 sounds like a stuck pig in that episode and this sounds kinda like mildly sizzling bacon . . .
Motoman, just realised, u sound just like Donald Trump, especially in the hangar.. Kid you not. If listening with eyes closed it's identical. Btw, great reviews....
yes not great
I have the s500 convertible and I changed the exhaust, it was to boring as standard.
As bayrakları as..
You made a mistake....this car does not have curve control.
Yeah, sounds like my ride-on lawnmower. Either that microphone is horrible or Mercedes got the exhaust note wrong on this one.
Same exact mic set up as in this episode ruclips.net/video/Au9xSssreUw/видео.html and this episode ruclips.net/video/9fNdcxqHg7g/видео.html
My how the times have changed, who would have called socal turning into a burning hell hole full of homeless walking dead covid victims, keep that roof up buddy!
Getting
The lighting in the hangar is terrible
Lovely car but not in that colour combination
😂😂😂😂
Needs 19 wheels
