The 2018 Mercedes-Benz S-Class Convertible makes for an excellent contender in the midsize convertible class. With a standalone on offer, the Mercedes-Benz S-Class Convertible has a base MSRP of $133,300. It competes directly with the BMW M6 Convertible. Meanwhile, the Porsche 911 Turbo Convertible and the Audi R8 Convertible are also potential rivals with more expensive price tags. Only a 4.0L Twin-Turbo V8 engine is offered, mated to a 9-speed automatic transmission. Together, they produce 463 horsepower and 516 lb-ft of torque. Accelerating from 0-60 in 4.5 seconds, the S-Class maintains a combined fuel economy of 20 MPG. Mercedes-Benz offers the S-Class in 14 stunning colors, with the Diamond Silver being a particular favorite of ours.
