2009 Mercedes-Benz SL-Class SL550 2dr Convertible (5.5L 8cyl 7A)

Review

Comparing to 06'911S, it's slower but more modern interior features. Command System in 09'SL is so old to same year in LS460. Exterior and interior of this SL550 are so sexy in Red/Tan. I'm really loving this 09'SL better than 05'SL,560SL,380SL and 280SL I had before!

Favorite Features

Iphone can play its music right after connecting!

Suggested Improvements

Both SL550 and 911 should buy Command system from LS460

Review

Factory delivery August '08. 2K miles over 3 weeks in Europe with spouse and plenty of luggage. Now have 8.5K miles. Beautiful (projects stronger image than predecessor),fast, handles flat, 27 MPG hwy, 18 city, rock solid, super brakes, zero defects, great seats, new COMMAND system w/ iPod connection, satellite radio excellent, totally stable at 110 MPH (autobahn, not California!) and in rain,seamless transmission with paddles, perfect descendant of original 300SL. Get one before they take your keys away.

Favorite Features

Style, speed, braking, handling, superb build quality,seats,folding roof, reasonable mileage and storage,high-tech features. Exudes genuine class

Suggested Improvements

Make European features (e.g.,folding mirrors and full leather interior) available in U.S.
