2005 Mercedes-Benz CL-Class CL55 AMG 2dr Coupe (5.4L 8cyl S/C 5A)
Review
Excellent vehicle - luxury, sporty and powerful. Very comfortable and drives itself. Sound system is top notch. Navigation system is easy to use - not complicated at all as others have rated. It is a gas guzzler, however it is worth the extra premium gas price because the ride is awesome. Mercedes employees are very helpful and so professional. I love it.
Favorite Features
AMG package, speed, sound system, comfortable seating with temperature and massage controls.
Suggested Improvements
Rims that wont scratch so easy from curb parking.

2005 Mercedes-Benz CL-Class CL55 AMG 2dr Coupe (5.4L 8cyl S/C 5A)
Review
This is without a doubt the most exciting car I have ever owned or driven. Just seeing the letters "AMG" when I get into the car every day makes me a happy commuter. I may go broke with the incredibly high fuel consumption, but it will be with a smile. Great acceleration yet luxurious enough to commute in. Easier to service and more fun to drive then the Maserati's and comparable to the DB9 (but with room for golf clubs). Much better looking then the 645i. Get it.
Favorite Features
Design, acceleration, automatic trunk closer.
Suggested Improvements
Handling could be better for a car in this class. Navigation system could be easier to use.

Review
This car is beautiful to look at and even more awesome to drive. It seats four adults technically, although the backseat can be a tad small for two good sized adults. I have had some minor problems with the vehicle however. Some material coming apart on the interior, a trunk lid that malfunctioned but was fixed, the door handle latch has become unattached. The response from Mercedes has been wonderful though.
Favorite Features
I love the horsepower.. It will get up and go like none other! It is awesome to drive.
Suggested Improvements
I drove an Infinitia QX4 and loved having the access from the interior to change CD's.. It'd be nice if the CL 55 AMG had a 6 CD changer with access from the inside rather than the trunk.

2005 Mercedes-Benz CL-Class CL500 2dr Coupe (5.0L 8cyl 7A)
Review
All around beautifully designed inside and out. Very comfortable on long drives or just out for a fun spin around the block. Adequate power and great automatic shifter for extra fun on the highways. Many extra options available which I took advantage of. Includes automatic starter, AMG sport package, satelite radio, upgraded navigation and a few others. Being a huge car fan, this is THE car to drive. Luxury, sport orientated, and sophistication in one awesome package. No dissapointments for the true car driver!
Favorite Features
The automatic starter is in my opinion the best everyday toy that a car can have. The sport package gives the vehicle an even sleeker, meaner look than it's already stylish body provides it.
Suggested Improvements
Include standard rear heated seats and maybe a slightly larger navigation screen. All around there is not much room for improvement.

It is a bit uncomfortable to get in and out of the rear seats but hey, I drive not ride. I love the car. I am still working on all the toys as Mercedes are not known for their toys. I am trying to det the DVD to show a picture.

2005 Mercedes-Benz CL-Class CL600 2dr Coupe (5.5L 12cyl Turbo 5A)
Review
This is arguably the finest super coupe on the road. Period. The CL600 is sleek, sexy and the craftmanship is suberb. Awesome power, sporty yet luxurious. I can't even imagine how Mercedes could improve this car. Simply gorgeous...king of the road.
Favorite Features
INTERIOR FINISH IS EXCEPTIONAL. Hand- stitched leather dash and suede headliner is very well done...leather seats are the softest I have ever touched. Vented and heated seats with back massager for driver and passenger get voted for best feature.
Suggested Improvements
One complaint with the car is the headrest need to position forward for maximum comfort. Also auto rain- sensing wipers are annoying. Stereo speakers not up to par for a car in this price range. Otherwise car is PERFECT.
JUST ABOUT BEST MONEY CAN BUY

Review
TRADED IN A 2004 MB 500. THAT CAR WAS A DELIGHT TO OWN, BUT NOW WITH THE CL500S IT FEELS LIKE I AM FLOATING ON A SOFT CLOUD INTO HEAVEN. WISH I COULD HAVE HAD PARKTRONIC WITH IT, BUT DEALERS INVENTORY DID NOT HAVE ANY IN STOCK. AND I WANTED IT NOW, NOT LATER!
Favorite Features
SMOOTH SHIFTING AND SOUND IS EXCELLENT!
