As long as the Mercedes S Class is still in production,that dream will never materialise.The S Benz was unveiled in 1990 as a contender to the LS which was the def. Of luxury then.27 yrs after,we know who is winning.The S class was even able to dust it within a decade of production.
I must say,truthfully,that this car would have been my pick for a luxury sedan,dusting the avalon and ES models...if not for the IS 250 which to me is a combo of executive comfort,sportiness and luxury.Nevertheless,its a worthy pick any day,any time

Vanity upon vanity, it all ends here on this planet Earth.

Sometimes when am driving with my car and I see a broken down 'tear rubber' car I just tap my car like I'm proud of you baby.

These are one of the things that make people so desperate and the world so hard.

This is the reason why politicians are looting money. To buy the latest cars and properties.

Zigzag led on the Ls I think makes it look childish. The interior needs more chrome like finishings and knobs than cheap plastic. Its has nice functionalities and 12.3 inch nav screen is gud. It's a nice bt to compete with Benz now they must step up.

Lexus LS was the one that dethroned Mercedes and made Mercedes go back to the drawing board. Since then to today.... Lexus beats Mercedes in reliability and holds its value wayyy longer than a Mercedes. No doubt... this new one is going to be a hot seller.... what I don't like about it is the front.... that's for parking in garages only. On street parking with no bumper?...I can see that grill getting wrecked...again and again! Nice car.

That front grill seems very very fragile. I guess they didn't make these cars for long term use. I don't see these cars in the next 10 years looking okay with that front bumper.

I do not agree that S Class leaves the LS in the shadows. I have had the privilege of driving both cars for a considerable length of time and I must say it's a tough choice to pick one over the other.

In terms of performance, they both have it. Luxury, they both have it. Brand clout, you bet they both have it. It's all down to personal preference as they both carry about the same price tag. It's more like Coke vs Pepsi.

If it's not Coke it's not Coke. S klasse is supremely ahead and above any contraption Lexus can put together!

The grill is stronger than it looks and it is somewhat protected by the bumper. More so, the flexibility allows it to take impact without deformation
No doubt. ..the grill is metal.... but I'm thinking on street parking.... there's no bumper to take the impact of a car backing into it. But then again....sure they considered street parking in their design..... the F series cars have pretty much the same nose and are doing just fine....ehmmm...when I carjack buy one I'll be back to comment.

Because you lie, you assume everyone else lies.

I have nothing to gain to tell a lie. You know it and I'm certain you have seen it too where cars that are bought as brand new breakdown on the road.

My point is that it doesn't matter the features in the carif it doesn't fulfil the basic purpose of moving you from place to the other all the time then it's a burden.

Alot of people today have a car but prefer to trek and when you ask them they tell you they rather use their leg than face the unexpected with their cars.

I agree with you on that bumper getting wrecked but on reliability, I have my doubts. That's why I still see more V Boots on the road than LS. The ES and IS models have even relegated the GS models to the background. No doubt about the LS being the standard of luxury before Mercedes came out with the S Benz in 1990 however, I think a Nigerian president using the LX 570 as an official vehicle is much more feasible than an LS 500.
