Got today two compliments for my car, again๐Ÿ˜Š

 
 By: COUNT DE MONET : August 27th, 2019-07:36
It is possibly the most underrated coupe. Look at this side profile: ... and this big, big back: Best of all is: with 435 horsepower and 700 nm of torque coming from a 4.7 liter twin turbo V8 it is still a prenium car that can handle even all the latest p...  

Bill: it is ride

 
 By: COUNT DE MONET : August 27th, 2019-07:42
If you accelerate a bit harder then you are pushed into the seat and if you go down from the pedal you are moved slightly forward "out of" the seat. Like on a horse: a ride!

Congrats on this beauty

give me a Benz and I can drive all day

Drove 1.000 km to Vienna, stopped once for fuel ...

... and when I arrived, I went out to town. You are right to say "I can drive all day".๐Ÿ‘

MB makes great coupes...

 
 By: mdg : August 27th, 2019-08:07
...this among them. I was very tempted to buy the very last one a dealer had for sale when moving back to the US from overseas. The price was a bit steep and he wouldnโ€™t discount it to my liking. Leased an Audi instead. But I still see CLs on the road (sa... 

It is never too late: there are surely some great used ones

 
 By: COUNT DE MONET : August 27th, 2019-08:21
Depreciation is the worst point of this model. I bought mine as a used two year old car. New would have been too expensive for me.

The thought has crossed my mind...

 
 By: mdg : August 27th, 2019-16:47
...but at this point if I went that route Iโ€™d look at the S-class coupe. I am currently driving my sonโ€™s beat up Mazda (heโ€™s living out of state). The next car I buy will be either all electric or an old beater Porsche for weekends.

State of the art excellence

 
 By: COUNT DE MONET : August 27th, 2019-08:42
That was the marketing message for this model. Thank you for your view.

Way to go

I got the 4 door saloon for all kinds of practical reasons (one of them being our driver haha) but the coupe is indeed so underrated yet so great Enjoy driving it

Jurry, it is more practical than one would ever think

 
 By: COUNT DE MONET : August 27th, 2019-08:50
Next to full four seats for grown ups at the back, the missing b-pillar makes this possible: Moving a mattress! ๐Ÿ˜… ...  

LOL ๐Ÿ˜ฎ [nt]

Practical

 
 By: Jurry : August 27th, 2019-14:46
I know the coupe is a practical car as well but my main reason to prefer the 4 door saloon is simply because at least once per week I go to ABU dhabi in the morning, and back home late at night. On my way over I sit in the back and work, on the way back I... 

My AMG V8 says hello!

 
 By: patrick_y : August 27th, 2019-09:02
Very very nice car Count De Monet! Allow me to be another person who compliments it!

You have got an E-class AMG, or?

 
 By: COUNT DE MONET : August 27th, 2019-09:09
Mercedes is doing great V8s again!

It's an old E Class AMG. Also have a Tesla in the household.

 
 By: patrick_y : August 27th, 2019-09:18
Just washed the old E Class AMG myself last night.

I wasted also mine myself today ๐Ÿ˜Š

 
 By: COUNT DE MONET : August 27th, 2019-10:44
... and than polished it myself ... good excercise ๐Ÿ’ช

Or C class ๐Ÿ˜‰

 
 By: Watchonthewrists : August 27th, 2019-09:22
Like mine

They're all nice cars!

 
 By: patrick_y : August 27th, 2019-09:28
I like the C Class a lot too. I used to have one.

C 63S ... that is a rocket!

 
 By: COUNT DE MONET : August 27th, 2019-11:09
A standard C class looks already very good๐Ÿ‘

Realy great and beautiful car ๐Ÿ‘Œ๐Ÿป๐Ÿ˜˜

 
 By: Watchonthewrists : August 27th, 2019-09:24
Very underrated imo

You know about cars ๐Ÿ‘ [nt]

 
 By: COUNT DE MONET : August 27th, 2019-10:45

It is not a load car, massimilano.

 
 By: COUNT DE MONET : August 27th, 2019-13:22
Even if you push it hard: it just snarls/growls a little. It is nothing like a typical AMG. Discretion is all ... but if you press the pedal hard you are pressed into the seat. Even at 200 km/h if you press the pedal hard the car pulls with quite noticeab... 

I agree. [nt]

My Favorite Reference from Mercedes the SEC/CL/S Class Coupe....

 
 By: SALMANPK : August 28th, 2019-00:39
and yours is very beautiful as well. Enjoy the Drive. S

The SEC was my dream car from my childhood era

 
 By: COUNT DE MONET : August 28th, 2019-04:14
I always wanted that glorious 500 batch on the back of my car ๐Ÿ˜€! Thank you for your kind words, my friend.

I loved my CL

 
 By: radone : August 28th, 2019-22:10
i drove it for seven years. Great drive, unlimited power, amazing comfort. At first, I did not buy the S Coupe... But the killer facelifit made me do the move: ...  

S class coupe is also a fantastic car

 
 By: COUNT DE MONET : August 29th, 2019-00:07
Looks fabulous with the Panamericana grill. My only complaint is that the S coupe cabine is a little too small for me. Rivals like Bentley and Aston Martin "helped" a lot to refine the interior in particular of the CL / S coupe. Cool looking S coupe there... 

Another thing missing in the S coupe is ...
