Fun to drive. Very nice lines. Did have the transmission fail after a few months of driving. A control module was replaced to correct the defect. Good gas mileage and great sound system

Great gas mileage. Comfortable for 2 adults and back seats hold shopping! Love the ride and comfort. Would buy again!

There's something about them

There is just something special about owning a Mercedes and in this case, the CLK500. I can say this after having owned several BMW E39 5 Series, along with a variety of other top car makes. If you are looking for a car that is sporty, and classy this is the pick. If you are looking for a car with refinement, this is the pick. Smooth and powerful the CLK500 is a pleasure to drive. It just feels special. The quality, fit and finish is of the highest standard, exceeding BMW or Audi. I'm getting 6 cylinder gas mileage from the V8 and I believe this is due to the 7 speed automatic now standard on the CLK500. Great car!

This Black On Black CLK500 Cabriolet is a pleasant surprise. The new engine and transmission with the paddle shifter is very slick and gives the driver great control when performance is needed. The leather is superb and the top is of the finest quality available. Top is very fast up and down 17 seconds and looks great both ways. The car is very quiet with the top up, quieter than my accura 3.2TLS sedan. I got this car because it has two personalities. One that it looks like a black coupe with a sporty business appearance with the top up and a fun sporty runabout with the top down. Rear seat is very comfortable and has more headroom than the coupe.

Excellent all around vehicle. Some obvious features missing that is found in lesser priced vehicles. eg compass, easily accessable change holder (lifting up armrest is cumbersome), poorly located cup holder without provision for passenger
