  • In this video review, I go over the Mercedes-Benz S65 AMG W220 which was available for 2006 in North America. This is the flagship v12 model above the S500, S600, and S55 AMG. I briefly cover the m275 engine, the performance, features, reliability, and prices of the S65 AMG.

    I had this exact car a "long" time ago..... What an absolute beauty it was. Its exhaust note was amazing as well. I can remember every time valet would drive away with it and what it sounded like from the outside...... I still remember that every single bit you pushed down the accelerator, you felt every single bit of it push you back more and more into the seat. The car felt like a driving a huge heavy boat honestly but smooth it definitely was... As for the day I sold it, what a sad day that was. But it was time to move on from its expensive uptake and parts failures / maintenance. Worst comment I ever received was from my Mercedes dealership one day telling me it was nothing more than a money pit. I will never forget about... wish I could post pics! I'll try to upload whatever videos I can find to my feed.

    Thank you so much for your informative and awesome videos.
    As an automotive technician of german cars, your videos are supremely helpful and informative for me.
    Sorry, i wanted to suggest something, the W220 is a great platform, but please also make a video about W221 and W222, because they are much more modern and interesting to know about.
    The Technology and technical data and differences in each year since it's made and the models, is very essential for me and Mercedes lovers, to know about.
    By the way, all of your videos are just so interesting and engrossing to watch, and i watch each of them, with a lot of interest and excitement.
    Keep up these awesome and great videos, and thank you so much Mr.AMGMEISTER.!!!

It cost $600 for a refurbished ones, and changed it myself, took 10 min. The beat MB in my opinion. Wouldn't buy any other MB, and there will never be one like it!

    I have a 2006 S55. It is perfect to me. I do not have to worry about a $1000 coil assembly.

    Beautiful. Can you do a review on the 2006 CLK500. The one with the M273.(5.5 litre V8, 7 Speed Auto.) I think it's very underated. Thanks in advance.

    Can you go over the S55, if you haven’t. It’s one of my dream cars and I’ll be looking to acquire one soon.

    Are there more reliable aftermarket replacements for the coil packs, valve cover gaskets, motor mounts, ... etc.?

    Mine did needed to change the ignition box on top of the engine. The RPM's started to live own life and there were small cut offs where engine shut "down" very very vastly. But not fast enough to give error code. Also there needed to disasemble the engine to get to change the oil cooler? Small black plastic piece at the back of the engine completely near the driver. Expensive working hours. And then at the high speeds the ABC unit flashed a red warning light and beeped very fast on bumps on the road. I did install new tandem pump, but not sure yet did the problem go away completely. Otherwise it really is stunnishing car.
