The W222 Mercedes-Benz S-Class, or rather its V222 long-wheelbase form, is set to make its market debut in Malaysia this year – no word yet on when the official launch is to happen, but interestingly enough reader Sean Hoh sighted this S 500 in SS2, Petaling Jaya earlier in the month.
The S 500 variant was one of the four available at point of the W222’s global introduction last May, the others being the S 400 Hybrid, S 350 BlueTEC and BlueTEC Hybrid. The S 500 – second in line to the range-topping V12-equipped S 600 flagship – is powered by a 4.6 litre V8, which has 455 hp at 5,250 rpm and 700 Nm at 1,800-3,500 rpm for output numbers. Performance figures include a 0-100 km/h time of 4.8 seconds and a 250 km/h top speed.
Is the registered example a Mercedes-Benz Malaysia vehicle or a grey import? Looks like this year is shaping up to be a busy one for MBM – aside from the S-Class, there’s the CLA-Class, which we’ve already sighted the first official mule of, in the form of the CLA 200 seen in the Aloft carpark last week.

That’s a cute lil’ S2000.
same though when saw this pic, any idea where you guys bought it?
One of my favorite Honda scale model in a Honda I drive regularly.
This guy shares a lot in common with me.
you can get a model from Tomica or Fastlane from toys r us . I reckon this is a fastlane brand at around rm6.50
Like d matt hood of d S, that is d S2000
Just go to any toy or hobby shops. Most of them sell scale models.
wow..the tiny S2000 overshadowed the huge S 500..haha
What S 500? LOL.
nice design but i still wait for s400 hybrid.overall its awesome:)
i spotted a nice S2000 !
wait for the S63 :D btw this is the S-class which can drive itself am i right?
Is that little yellow thing on the dash going to be the next bumble bee..?
Merc has a lot of nice models comming up. Can’t wait for the new C class to be introduced in M’sia – hopefully early 2015 since it will only comeout in Europe/US in the Fall.
Hopefully they will bring in the C200 Blue efficency with the small pointy star on the top version.
I saw this car same colour in Hartamas twice. it does not have the presence like the older model and looks like a pumped up CLA. the interior was fantastic and the ip clusters are great as I managed to see the inside when driver aloowed me to see it. it belonged to a Dato who is apprently wsthe first to own it. the exterior is not that great this car looks better in photo than reality. I still prefer the older one or the Bentlet Glying Spur if one looks for the presence.
like the s2k more than the sklasse
Cute S2000 spotted in PJ
lol u guys talked abt s2000 or s 500? hahaha
Wow.. i saw one was speeding at kesas highway the other day. I should say, it is indeed, elegant. A8, 750Li, Lexus LS can say bye bye soon.
