If you were wondering if the Concept S-Class Coupe might lose some of its sexiness in real life compared what it looks like in the manipulated press photos, you should probably be rest assured. The car is drop-dead gorgeous in the flesh as well.
Powered by the twin-turbocharged 4.7-liter V8 with 455 hp and 700 Nm (512 lb ft) – the one that can be found in its recently launched sedan brother, the W222 S-Class - the concept is not exactly the most powerful luxury coupe Mercedes-Benz could have unveiled, especially since the new V12 is yet to be unveiled in the S-Class sedan as well.
Still, the engine choice and the fact that the two rear seats look quite a bit on the unusable scale can be easily left aside just by taking a long look at the Concept S-Class Coupe's design.
It has enough technology to put the USS Enterprise to shame, but its style is the main motive to completely adore it. Let's not forget that the production version of the model – expected somewhere around or at the 2014 North American Auto Show – should preserve at least 90% of the design details. Meanwhile, let's just drool at the concept.
