You’ve reached the stage in life where you demand to drive the best, but you prefer understated sophistication over flashy flamboyance. That describes the 2017 Mercedes-Benz S-Class, at least the big sedan and 2-door coupe. As for the new Cabriolet, well, there’s just no dialing back that kind of visual decadence.
In terms of power, technology and luxury, the BMW 7 Series, Jaguar XJ and Audi A8 all come close to the S-Class, for thousands less. If your budget is even tighter, there’s the Kia K900 or Genesis G90.
