Ultimate sleeper? This car has more interior space than the S-Class.

^depends how you measure it, legroom is no where near s class level, and I've extensively driven the B class and comfort-wise it's way towards the toyota matrix side of the spectrum.
The whole B55 thing isn't really that amazing especially knowing that it's a mercedes it probably won't be more reliable than what custom hot rodders have been doing with american econoboxes for years.

Although i am surprised they can fit a V8 in there.

any engine is capable of putting out numbers like this for horsepower but there is also reliability to worry about.
