--- CLEAN CARFAX --- SERVICE RECORDS AVAILABLE --- That's the beauty of the S600: Despite its bodacious brawn, it's a gentle giant. Engage the transmission's "comfort" mode, and a second-gear start launches the car smoothly enough to prevent spilling a brimming cafNLG latteccino. Only in certain full-throttle upshifts and downshifts does the heavily reinforced transmission deliver an uncharacteristically firm kick.
And when it comes time to undo the inertial damage done by the 12 pistons under the hood, 12 more pistons (four per corner in front, two each in back) go to work clamping AMG-size front and rear rotors. Repeated stops from 70 mph took 164 feet (two less than the Maranello). And yet, delicately applied, they can also arrest 70 mph without sloshing a back-seat martini. OTHER FEATURES ON THIS 2003 S600: Bose audio system with AM/FM radio, CD player, Disc Autochanger and six-disc remote changer, Automatic door closing, three fixed bench front facing reclining electrically adjustable heated rear seats with three adjustments, Bucket heated electrically adjustable driver and passenger active/massage ventilated seat with height adjustment, lumbar adjustment, six adjustments and tilt adjustment, built in radar for distance and cruise control ( Automatically slows the car down when is close to another vehicle ). This car has been well taken care of and has every option available offered by Mercedes Benz.
