All of them actually. Pricing dissregarded the S-class won all the tests conducted between the 7er and A8 where it counts.

the new S-class is probably the best luxury car today but its way to expensive. A8 all the way.

I don't understand this logic. If the S is the best car then it is worth some extra dough. These are luxury cars not family sedans to most the extra money won't mean anything. These aren't penny pinchers.

I agree Merc1. The pricing factor can't be looked at so objectively in this class of vehicle. If everything was so objective, where would that leave most supercars.

Mr. M · 12-09-2005, 01:09 AM

It depends on how much in proportion the S-Class is better than its competition. Fully optioned, the S-Class's price can skyrocket up while its competitors have already certain options standard at base price.

It's quite logical if you pay more for a better car, and pay less for a lesser car. But is the S-Class really worth all that extra money? I think not.

why do I want to pay extra for a S-class when the A8 is a great car as well. S-class dont even look good, A8 look the best its class. Why pay extra when I dont like everything about a car.
