This is a fab car if you are planing to have one then you can go for it the only flaw is if you want a drives car which carries passengers in comfort then this is not a car for you as it is not a drivers delight, its more comfort oriented. 

But you are someone who loves seat like a boss in rear bench then S-class awaits you, as it is an amazing package at the rear and the more you pay for it the more you get it as there is and Maybach version also available with more extended wheel base and all that space added for the rear seat people to make it a complete business class limo.
