Mercedes Bens S550

The NEW S550 Mercedes cannot be beat. This innovative sedan has been designed to take performance to a new level. The outer shell is a muscular silhouette that would make any Chevy drool. The wheel arches are breathless ,and the aerodynamic qualities help to make this standout sedan one of the fastest and sleekest cars on the market today.

This 9th generation vehicle has been designed to exude elegance with full leather upholstery and hand polished wood trim, a 14-speaker, 600-watt surround sound system, power rear window sunblind, a dual-zone automatic climate control system and a hands-free communication system with voice activation, just to name a few of the over-the-top features. How does this cruiser rate on safety? Besides all of the bells and whistles you would expect, there is a tenway protection system with eight airbags. One more feature to seal the deal of purchase: a dual-panel glass, panoramic roof that gives the passenger and driver a euphoric sense of space. The engine is a 5.5 Liter, 32-valve aluminum V-8 machine. Now that we have dissected the car’s ins and outs, let’s turn this puppy on!

Do you hear that? Well, it is not the engine you are hearing since this engine’s purr is hardly noticeable. The suspension allows you to travel on any road with the feeling of comfort. As the pedal hits the floor, you will go from 0-60 mph in 5.4 seconds. For those of you who really have a flare for danger, take this gem out to an empty road and see what she can do. Hold on tight, as the top speed is 130 mph. As the S550 moves forward, the 6-speed automatic jet downshifts and you feel like you are the pilot with an ability to maneuver on any road you may encounter. As you pull into a crowded shopping mall, the rear view monitor will help you to navigate the most challenging of parking spaces. If you find yourself in an area that lacks illumination, just activate the night vision monitor and you will have a second picture of the road in front of you. Cruise control takes on a new meaning in this lap of luxury. Once you put the car in cruise control mode, the car will automatically slow down or stop if it senses another car in front of you or entering your lane. This feature truly gives you a sense of being on autopilot.

The S550 is the car for those who deserve perfection. This elegant beauty is sure to turn heads everywhere the lucky driver takes it. Seating for five never felt roomier regardless of where you are sitting, and you will feel the sensation of superiority behind the wheel.

Even though a confident man never runs, this car demands the exception. Do not run, sprint to your nearest Mercedes-Benz dealership and take a test drive to enjoy this masterpiece. We guarantee that you will want to drive off the lot behind the wheel of this vision of beauty.
