CLS 550 4 Matic
I purchased a 2013 CLS550 (4matic). This vehicle is really fun to drive. As mentioned in various reviews the disappointments are the back up camera has not guidelines, the passenger doesn't have seat massagers, the side mirrors do not fold and the PARKTRONIC engage at speeds below 20 MPH. The Parktronics feature is great however it seems to periodically stick. The engine performs as commanded. The engine does has a speed limiter feature the limits the top speed to 133MPH (160 shown on the dashboard).

best sedan/coupe I've driven
Tested the Audi s7, BMW 6, Jaguar and then clearly decided on the CLS 4 matic. Incredible design inside and out. Perfect driving in terms of handling, pick up and comfort. Keep getting compliments almost every time I take it for a drive. Could hardly recommend it more highly.

Purchase mistake
To mention only the most salient points. Visibility for making a left turn is downright dangerous, because of the limited view. The Sport or Comfort choice has no noticeable difference. No place to leave sunglasses for easy access. Battery had to be replaced after 1000 miles Drivers arm rest had to be replaced after 2 years 10,000 miles. The navigation screen tilt invites the sunshine which blinds the screen Seat upholstery is hard and causes pain to a user after a half hour. Rear view camera has a fisheye undesirable lens. A highly questionable technology when turning off the monitor it turns off everything such as the telephone etc. When starting the engine, it roars like a lion for several minutes. I don't like the car and am deeply disappointed in its convoluted in the dashboard located information systems. You need to crawl under dashport to find various switches LEFT TURN VISIBI:ITY< IMPOSSIBLE- DANGEROUS. I would never purchase this car again. AMEN Except for exterior design, the is the worst car I have ever owned
