I'd like a Maybach 62, but that's not a dream that I may be able to fulfill. However, the two cars I already stated that I want I can actually get. Might have to sell my house though. LOL

I prefer the 1999 W140 because it has the new Airmatic DC suspension introduced in 1998. I have driven a pre-98 S-Class and a 1999 S500 with the Airmatic over the exact same roads and the new suspension rides so much better than the old one its unbelievable!!

In fact, the very best S600 would be the 1994 one. In 1995, the S-Class was "cheapened." Lower quality parts were used, options deleted, and base prices reduced by about $5,000. That huge drop represented a huge drop in quality.
