dont know if this is old news but found an article in car magazine EVO (issue 98) which has several pages on the 6.9 vs the S65 (fair comparison).  a decent article with some stats probably interesting to many.
the car used was 180,000miles on clock (about 300,000km ?).  it did a 7.9 second 100kmh dash and a 16.1 quarter mile...
between you ane me, id never let anyone belt the crap out of my car around a track!

The latest issue, well for Australia anyway of Mercedes Enthusiast Magazine had a road test of a near new, 1000k old 6.9 from the classic center, 560SEL with around the same amount of use and a new S Class model.
