First of all the car is nice inside out. Mechanically i expect better from German manufacturers. Why cant they build a car with German quality and Japan reliability? Anything goes wrong with this car minimum $500 to fix.

do usual in depth checks. buy a vehicle that was local and was a cpo. mine has 80k and checked out fine. i only drive it on weekends. my mechanic said this will be fine. if driving the usual 15k/yr, just be ready for the usual expensive repairs. i had lexus sc430. benz has more of that 1 piece porsche feel to it vs lexus and more fun to drive. also liked the classic long nose look like old jag xk and sc400. lots of stuff you don't need but work with the manuel and all techno stuff gets easier to use. of course more stuff means more possible problems. buying used is great way to beat the big depreciation. the more i play with it, the more i like it. no mpg but don't care. didn't buy it for mpg

After owning two Porsches and 3 Mercedes, this is the best handling and most powerful car I have ever owned. I plan to keep this car forever. I just got this car for $38K with 74,000 miles on it. It looks and drives like it was brand new. The original owner traded it in on the latest version. It get attention from people that know what it is, but is fairly stealthly for such a powerful car.

This is a great car! picked it up last
week from FL and drove it up about
1,200 miles to the east coast, despite
the long drive, it was a breeze, the
car felt rock solid, noise road was
minimum considering the fact I had 19
inch tires on it. It handels
beautifuly, the engine is responsive
enough when you need it to be, and
make no mistake about it, you feel
like you "own" the road when you are
behind the wheels. Great car, it won't
handle like my 540i, but that's not
what this car is for.
By the way I was averaging about 23MPG
highway driving and that's not bad for
for a 5L V8.

this is my 2nd cl 500 ,as the first one
(2003), was deliverd to me demaged
from merceds benz... and after
some"persuation" was bought back from
me and replaced.
this car is beautifull to look
at ,inside out but very quirky on
many levels--- ride is mushy ,handling
is ok but it's no beamer, too many
rattles and noises coming at you from
all directions. this is not what you'd
expect from $100k car! my first(or
shall i say second)mb ,and the last
one! please ,drive me to the nearest
bmw dealership!

mercedes benz has been the best for
years, mercedes benz is the best
currently, always will be the best.
ever since the 80's SEC coupes, amg has
built the best translation of a modern
muscle car. 130k is alot, but how else
can you rocket 2 tons to 60mph in under
5 seconds?
ricers beware, never step to the lord
of the autobahn.

The most awsome car on the planet to
drive. A sport car that can seat the
whole family (if you have a family of
4:-)

This is a beautiful car. Unfortunatly
bugs are always popping up. The most
recent problems have been with the
electric seats and windows not working.
One time the car completely shut itself
down due to a electrical problem.
