BREAKING NEWS! Hot! New S-class spyshots in...

These just in...

2006 Mercedes S Class


Codenamed W221, these 2006 S Class test cars undergoing cold weather testing have just a smidgen of camouflage hiding a handful of details.

The seventh-generation S Class measures in larger than today’s version, and will offer a new lineup of engines including V6 and V8 offerings, and an all-new 3.0-liter V6 diesel with over 230-horsepower, as well as a 4.0-liter V8 diesel. Other options will likely include a 6.3-liter V8 with 600-horsepower and a 6.5-liter twin-turbo V12.

Bells and whistles, as expected, will likely include pedestrian air bags which would eject from the grille if it senses such an impact, as well as an advanced crash avoidance system and an estimated sixteen airbags!

You can get a good idea as to the new S Class styling here, or you can wait until next fall for its official introduction, probably at the Frankfurt Motor Show.

Only thing they are consistant is their horrible reliablilty and high pricing. I say we boycott these cars forever!!!
