Absolutely amazing performance!!!! Great ride. Handing is awesome until you get into super sharp and quick transitions.... Then it's size and weight starts to show.

MB styling at its best

In terms of styling, I have never been a fan of MB. This CLS 550 has changed my perception. This great looking vehicle shines like a star among others whether they are MB or its competition. Interior layout and quality are classy and luxurious with the excpetion of the cup holders which interferes with the shift stick. The new 382 horsepower V8 engine is world class and more responsive than the '06 model. Power is instantly available when needed. The drive is silky smooth. Back seats are surprisingly spacious considering this is a coupe with 2 extra doors added. Definitely 1 of the best German automobiles available currently.

More fun than I expected

The CLS550 has both more power AND more room than I expected. An absolute BLAST to drive and the back seat is more spacious than it looks. It has a low roof line but it opens up once you get in the back seat. The front is totally spacious. Handles much better than the BMW 545, 550 and 750. I have owned a 750i and it was too big and made me feel old. The CLS turns heads and puts you in the back of the seat when you hit the pedal.
My Dream Car!

I wanted to buy my dream car, a special car that I would love to drive for a few years and would still be great looking. I researched the web extensively, test drove more cars than I ever did before, and decided on the CLS, with the AMG package. When I first saw it, it made my heart skip a beat! I have driven 3 Cadillac STSs, a SAAB 900 turbo, went conservative with a Volvo S80 twin turbo, but this car is special. I love power and good looks and this car is awesome. I can't drive it without a smile coming to my face.
Wow!

I purchased this car after coming out of a 06 Infiniti M45 and I'm very impressed. Performance is outstanding. The car is smooth and whisper quiet at 75mph. Fit and finish is good and typical for German cars, the car feels solid. The exterior styling is so unique for MB so it's a real head turner. The interior definitely feels like a coupe. There is plenty of room for driver and font seat passenger however, this will come at the expense of anyone sitting in the rear. The Command system is a disappointment after coming from the M45. Navigation and audio controls are not as intuitive and voice activation is an option as well as bluetooth capability. Still overall I am very happy with the ca
