I'm not a big fan of the car (I'd buy the Lexus LS), but there's no denying the the S is one of the world's best cars.

Believe it of not, their reasoning is that the S-class is too costly to own and burns too much gas (too powerful). Perhaps Forbes forgot what a luxury car is supposed to be - about excess. It was designed to be powerful and expensive and got slammed for being so.

So a magazine not loving the Yaris means nothing.

I wouldn't be surprised if the Benz S class was one of the worst luxury cars on the road. They've gone way down hill, completely forgetting what they used to be in the 70's and early 80's and before. They finally started realizing this and are slowly rectifying the problem, but they've lost a ton of luster and will take a long time to recover that, if they ever do.
