We've had both the new S550 and a 2010 7 Series, and I always thought the S-Class was "above" the 7 Series. After driving the 7 Series for almost a year...I think the 7 blows the S out of the water. The 7 handles better, the interior layout and materials are phenomenal, attention to detail and "little surprises" are mind blowing, you get SO much more car for less money, it holds value slightly better than the S-Class!
And, I LOVED our S550...but the 7 is amazing. I will admit, the S-Class has more "prestige" and road presence, but the S-Class is just too stuffy and "old people" for me.
With the ML and X5 comparisons...I've had 3 MLs (ML350 and 2 ML63s). The performance of the ML63 AMGs are mind blowing, but the X5 feels better, heavier and more solid!
