Those cars are way above the G in so many ways. You need to research and drive each one before you make any decisions.

I would go for the S6 out of those choices.

the S6 for speed, but the A8 for status and style

Mercedes are for people trying to compensate for something...

drove a friends brand new s550 a few weeks ago, very, very, very nice car. It's their daily driver because their other car is a Mybach (which is a lot more fun to sit in the back seat than drive). A co worker has an A8, haven't driven it, but sat in the passenger seat, it is also a very nice car, and might go from 60 to 120 faster than any car I have ever been in. You can't go wrong with either of those. The A6 is a step down from both, but also not a bad car either. Personally I'd go with the s550, but that is because I still consider an Audi a yuppy-mobile. Actually now that I think about it, for the price of an s550, I'd rather have a BMW 760 or M5.

On the S550, I'd wait until next year. Mercedes is notorious for having 1st year bugs. My mother has had about 15 MBs over the years. I had an e320 prior to my G, and my wife has a C320Wagon now.

As long as its under warranty, great cars and fabulous service.

S6 is it.......Gallardo based V-10 detuned. Enough said! S550 if you want the big sedan thing.
