I’d rather get an X5M for 7 series money honestly..

I didn’t actually visit the configurator until after my previous comment. So here’s mine:

Kinja'd!!!

I must say, it’s a good looking car with some of the best looking wheels out there. Too bad BMW’s mobile configurator stinks.

They don't have the same magic as the W221 and before..

I still misidentify 760Li’s all the time as some random 5-series.

BMW was going to extend my dad’s 7 lease until these came out. I’m very proud that he allowed me to direct him to the 3-series wagon instead. It’s a better, less annoying car in SO many ways. Driving it compared to the 7 is like that feeling in winter you get when you’ve been in a coat all day and you FINALLY take it off at the end of the day. It’s roomier, has actual usable cup holders, room to store things that have volume, and while it’s not quite as fast in a straight line, it doesn’t feel like such a hassle to get it around town. You don’t have to bend space time to go fast like it feels like you do in a 7.

That chrome strip that runs along the horizontal trunk line is vaguely American/Lincoln. Yeah, not this year, Munich.

I don't get why people always say this. The new S-class is, in my opinion, the best new car on sale today.

Interior, the W222 is much better than the W221, but overall I still like the W221 better.


Kinja'd!!! Van Man, rocks the Man Van > Alex B
08/26/2015 at 08:40

Why? I agree that the W221 was a good looking (I believe most people called it “stately”), but the W222is better looking, has a nicer interior, and has better powertrains. The only other argument is presence, which I don't buy 100%.


Kinja'd!!! Alex B > Van Man, rocks the Man Van
08/26/2015 at 08:47

Kinja'd!!!1

Yes, the W221 just has more presence on the road. I seriously have mistaken the W222 for the new C-Class on numerous occasions.

Kinja'd!!!

Here is my neighbor’s C-Class and S-Class. They look pretty similar, right? Parked right next to each other it’s easy to tell which is which because the size difference is apparent. But when seeing each one individually it becomes harder to differentiate the two.

That's not to say I don't like the new S-Class, because I do and I think they are fantastic cars. It's just that the old one had something the new one doesn't...

True. That’s probably the best argument against the W222, but it’s Merc’s own fault.

The interior of the W222 is magnificent though. Plus, you spend pretty much all the time with your vehicle on the inside so...
