Yes,i think that test is really wrong
in MOTORTREND test s500 was winner.

Wat are you talkin about! you see an Audi 4.2 litre and tell me you prefer that to an S430. I think I agree with you guys on that. The Audi A8 4.2 litre is better than the S430. And the reason is... its no S600 that comes with 12 cylinder, 6.0 litre and a 4-wheel drive. Dont get me wrong I voted for the Audi A8.
Why wasn't the Lexus 430 there?

Right, and 4 wheel drive is pointless . The S-class is definitely THE ultimate luxury car. The A8 comes last IMO (along with the Phaeton).

Oh and a question: why is everybody so obsessed with V12 engines?? They are NOT better than a V8.

[Dr freedom]

The Bentley Arnage.
The poll says 'luxury'... it's blasphemy at it's best even trying to compare other 'luxury' cars against it!

1.Why is the A8 4.2 better ? because it's faster ? Then you obviously never driven one of the 2 cars...
2.The S600 is a 5,5 litre now, there is no W12 A8 at the moment.
3.A 6 liter engine (or 5,5) is irrational in these days.
4.AWD is for people who can't drive or for off-road vehicles , completely useless in this kind of car.
5.The suspension of ANY Audi is uncomfortable, always been like that.
