This picture aptly shows the history of the Mercedes-Benz S-Class, and is a testament to these astonishing flagship luxury sedans. As an automotive enthusiast (with a special interest in Mercedes-Benz, BMW and Porsche) I find this picture an important one, because the cars in it have had a huge impact on today’s automotive industry. It is thanks to the countless, pioneering world-first technologies and safety equipments, first featured in these cars, that has made and will continue to make, all cars a safer and more pleasurable environment.

Just some of the innovations pioneered in the pictured cars are listed in the 'trivia' section in the Mercedes-Benz article. Recently pioneered features in S-Class cars, not listed in above article, include: Proximity radar parking aids, car satlight navigation, satlight navigation with integrated hard disc, Pre-Safe and other accident anticipation systems, first fully digital surround sound car audio system, infa-red head lights, and many more.

Not promoted I am closing this nom now as there isn't really a point in leaving it open. JCW, if you do find a free version of an S-Class that looks this great, be sure to nominate it. --PS2pcGAMER (talk) 09:34, 31 May 2006 (UTC)[reply]
