There are few cars in the world that literally take your breath away. While many of those are Ferraris, Lamborghinis, and various other exotic supercars, the Mercedes-Benz S-Class may be the one large luxury sedan that does so. Serious buyers are not concerned about the price tag and are therefore forced to make several choices, mainly in terms of power. With multiple engines and now a hybrid option, there is clearly one version that everyone should strive for: the S65 AMG.

It has a 604 horsepower twin-turbo charged V12 that skyrockets its occupants from zero to 60 mph in only 4.2 seconds. Combine this with all of those amazing techno gadgets from Mercedes and you have a true one-of-a-kind machine that will earn the respect of those Italian exotics.
