S-Class in the Market
The S-Class is up against some very good competition in the full-size luxury sedan category, including the LS 460, which starts significantly below the Mercedes' $86,700 base price.

In this the S-Class succeeds, and it remains a leader in this exclusive slice of the market and a favorite here at Cars.com.
