S5 vs C63 AMG thoughts?
#13
the 63K is an estimate by C&D
based on the numbers of the C350 it'll likely be a bit more than that. by the time you add some decent options it'll be close to 70K. the most i can see an S5 costing is 60K, fully loaded.
you couldn't pay me 10K to drive an automatic car. but that is just me.

There was another article which quoted MB execs stating $63k was the target base
Granted, that doesn't say what options would be included in that $63k. The performance package w/LSD is typically a $7-$8k option (which is why I could go without). I'm guessing the other packages (nav, etc.) would mirror the SLK and wouldn't come standard as they do on the S63 (gotta get something extra for that $130k). I think it's reasonable to expect $65k before gas guzzler.

Not a cost saving...they leave it out of almost all of their models
It's even part of a $14 package on their SL55 (a $130k car) - dumb to you and I, for sure, but I don't think we're their target audience
