I drive a Mercedes S 560, V8 biturbo, 470 horse power and 700Nm torque.
It’s the stretched version but it’s incredibly fast and thanks to huge tires it sticks to the road. Before this I had a Porsche Panamera V8
When I switched to Mercedes I was afraid the soft ride would result in poor handling. But no way.
The only disadvantage is that the tires last no more than 17,500 km and last week after 30,000 km my front disks required replacement (my driving style may have contributed a bit I must admit)
O yeah and fuel consumption is impressive:
impressively modest for normal driving style it’s average 8 liters per 100 km,
Impressively high if you speed it up a bit on the curvy roads and long stretches and you’ll see 20/100 on the screen (Max indication if you check after filling up its 25-30/100)
And fuel in the Middle East has become expensive, we nowadays pay approx € 0,31/liter 😆
