A 760 vs. S63 would be like comparing a CL600 to a M6.
The S63 is a V8 with a kompressor, meaning its supercharged, not naturally aspirated. If you watched the video you could even hear the whine of the Kompressorwhen the camera was on the hood view of it. As for the S600, that's slower than the S63, it's a naturally aspirated V12. Like one of the first repliesstated, the comparo should have been with an S65 (twin turboed V12)
