Well, further proof that 7-Series, XJ, A8, and LS do not compete with this guy. Sooo, how long until all these S-classes flood the used car market?

That’s not really proof of competition. Just proof of another fool buying a badge because of perceived status.

I’m kidding around. Uber is just investing in autonomous systems, and I’m betting they are banking on phasing out the human drivers in their business scheme. Honestly, the ride sharing model is a perfect launching point for autonomous vehicles. Something between remote control and supervised autonomy.

If I was in charge of this decision, I would have waited for the Genesis G90, since if the G80 is anything to go by, it’s going to be holy shit.

Seems like BS to me.

A large portion of the world uses commas for decimal points, so could it have been 100 S-Classes?
