Suffer the well-heeled speed junkies in the US who must have a sedan. Their lives must be wracked with torturous decision making requiring mad wisdom. Do they lay out the cash for a Brabus-tuned CLS, with seating for four, or wait for the S65 AMG, which can hold an extra, terrified passenger? We say hold out. The new S-is-for-swooosh 65, which will cost an estimated $170,000, is powered by a 6.0-liter, 604-hp, 738-lb-ft twin-turbo V12 that can propell all involved from zero to 60mph in around 4.2 seconds. King Solomon would approve.
