From its inception in 1972, the Mercedes S-Class has remained the
high-water line in the luxury sedan market. While an S-Class
already exudes luxury and style, to add a sense of drama and
performance, nothing comes close to the grand coupe. Stretching
over five meters from bumper to bumper the S 63 Coupe commands
presence.
Of the four different S-Class models available, the AMG Coupe
benefits the most from the Affalterbach performance treatment.
Powered by a hand-built biturbo V8 packing 604 horsepower and 664
lb-ft of torque, the performance coupe blasts to 60 mph in 3.4
seconds. The combination of expected S-Class levels of luxury and
AMG power allows the grand tourer to make light work of crushing
continents in style. The sporty stance lends well to an
attention-grabbing color. Finished in a special-order paint code of
Sunburst Yellow, the S-Class Coupe signals Mercedes-Benz's return
to a true pillarless grand coupe with long and low proportions; its
frameless glass, sweeping roofline, absence of B-pillars, and
distinctive AMG styling give it a silhouette unlike anything else
in the lineup.
The interior follows the same ethos of performance and luxury, with
options that compliment both aspects. The heated and ventilated
active multicontour front seats are upholstered in Black Nappa
leather that extends to the dashboard, center console, and door
panels, while carbon-fiber trim accents the cabin throughout.
Additional appointments include heated rear seats, a powered rear
sunshade, a surround-view system, COMAND infotainment with
navigation, and a Burmester sound system.
For those in search of an automotive experience built for the open
road, few cars deliver the combination of performance, luxury, and
long-distance comfort found in the AMG S 63 Coupe. Best experienced
on a long highway run where the biturbo V8's reserve of power and
the cabin's opulent features can both be fully appreciated; it begs
to be pointed toward the coast, letting the miles disappear.
