My 2007 Benz CLK 350 has been an awesome car! Very dependable and reliable! No complaints here! Well, maybe wish it had a bigger back seat....then I guess I should have bought a 4 door sedan then! No! I am very happy and highly recommend the CLK! I have seen many negative remarks about this car but if you research all cars no matter the brand you will find flaws and defects with all makes and models including the BMW brand etc. Also, the Mercedes is so much cheaper to maintain than the Beamer, I know first hand experience! :) on this one!
Incredible

We have owned everything from Porches, BMWs, Mercedes, and Corvettes and this is by far the best car. The combination of power and luxury is unbeatable. The looks of this car are stunning with the AMG package. Not to mention a hand-built engine that is to die for. The price for this car is a little on the high side for the market but in comparison to the M6, it is an overall better car. Highly recommend for any high performance car enthusiast, it will be a nice treat.

One of America's best looking cars! But beware the seat bolsters. I test drove this car a long time before buying. Thought the seats were wonderful because of that "tucked in" feeling. However, those bolsters pinch my back (I'm 5'11", 210 lbs). Painfully annoying and I bought this car for extended touring! Had a shop rebuild driver's seat - got some relief. I wish I had the 2010 E-Class seats with the adjustable bolsters. I mean, who drives a CLK hard enough to need aggresive bolsters? Having said all this, I love this car. Plenty of room for extended trips. Very quiet with top up, cozy during the winter. Fast. Cool. Beautiful exterior. Shopped Porsche, Audi, BMW. The CLK won.
Fantastic except for the bad paint job

I traded in my 2007 SLK that I had purchased new in March of 2007. It was a nice car, but tight on space and not very comfortable. The CLK Cabriolet is fantastic. The seats are the most comfortable I have set in ... even better than our 2008 Lexus LS 460. The Harmon Kardon stereo is incredible. The ride is crisp yet smooth and it literally glides over the roads. Some of the speakers vibrated at first with any significant bass, but this seems to have subsided quite a bit. The Irridium Silver paint is beautiful in lower light or artificial light, but in sunlight, you see the problems with the metallic paint...looks like it was painted with a spray can. Moral, don't buy on a cloudy day.
Highway Star !!!!

Purchased this car about 18 months ago and I can tell you that I will never get tired of driving this awesome car. Power, Looks, Comfort, it has it all. I live in Md and when we drive to NY this powerful V8 gets well over 20 mpg.... Unbelievable!!!! I purchased this car with 92k and it now has 112000 and runs very strong. I did have a few minor things to repair but nothing serious. Just keep the service up and change the fluids and these cars will treat you right. I wish Mercedes still made this beautiful car and if you can find one buy it. If you have to repair anything on these cars then do it because when you drive it the sting of the cost will be forgotten when you press the accelerator. These cars are a steal now. I have the 550 and now I would like to find a CLK 55 AMG to sit beside her. I am a 61 year old man and have purchased a lot of cars over the years and this Benz is the best looking most comfortable vehicle I have ever owned. Oh and I forgot to mention that it’s fast as hell. One last thing and the only thing I don’t like about the car is where the power seat controls are, my knee hits it sometimes when I am driving. And the 3rd brake light mounted in the trunk will eventually break from closing the trunk, so close it easy. Should have had it on the rear window.
