The S-Class is the embodiment of Mercedes. The S-Class has been on the throne since the 70's. The throne has been wobbly from time to time (Lexus), but I wouldn't keep my hopes up.

The new optional package is priced at £2,025, or about $3,400 in our money if the Cupra was sold here, which it sadly isn't. That's a shame, because I'd take one over a Volkswagen Golf R in a heartbeat.

More ponies in your corral can spell trouble if additional upgrades aren't also taken, and this car has those in spades. That starts with the 6-speed Honda gearbox, and radiates out to reworked suspension at all four corners, as well as upgraded brakes to keep the party in check.
Nice Corvair bro'
How do people respond to it?
