This is a car of many faces -- some delightful and others worthy of terror. At startup, the engine rumbles and moans indicating the true nature of the car you're about to drive. In the comfort setting the car is more serene, quiet, and fun to cruise around curvy roads. As you progress thru the driving modes you feel the level of power, tightness, braking and suspension steadily increase like some caged animal being prodded.

Just had 6 essential relays replaced all from China. The car has been in the MB shop for two weeks now trying to find other problems. Never had a brand new car not start. THis problem has brought to light that MB probably has chinese parts splattered all over. So why does this car cost so much? Germans think they can out engineer bad parts. Hardly. I will not but another MB. Over priced for cheap parts - and they still fail no matter how well the design.

Will not purchase another Mercedes. This is always in shop, 1 sensor or another, compressor that lifts car quit, lucky under warranty. New tires bubbled with bleb. My mother and sister getting rid of theirs.

I have driven my 2013 CLS550 for about one thousand miles. This is my first Mercedes, my previous care being a 2010 Hyundai Genesis. I must say that I am not sure the CLS is worth twice the cost of the Genesis. Here are a few annoyances I have found so far. The exterior rear view mirrors do not fold. That option is only available in Canada. The back up camera has no guide lines. The rear seat passengers can regulate the air flow but cannot change the temperature. Admittedly the CLS has much more power than the Genesis, but it is not easy to regulate. The accelerator seems like an on/off switch, which is not easily regulated for steady acceleration.
Very powerful car.really enjoy to drive!

A bit lucky right before warranty expires

The car was perfect in every detail, except the navigation system. It got jammed and stuck, a typical malfunction of software or firmware. Only after some visits to the dealership, and some pictures taken from the screen during malfunction, the service manager was convinced there was something else going on. This happened right after buying the vehicle with warranty about to expire. But they honored the promise by replacing the navigation unit. I put 15k miles on it and it still works well.

STILL my dream car

I bought mine new in 16 loaded (sticker was $93K - twice my 1st house back in the day) and purchased the 7 year extended warranty which expired at the end of 22, so I just did the muffler delete with upgraded ceramic tips which gave it a BIT more power, but now it 'sounds' like it has WAY more power! YOWZA!!! Be careful with the AMG wheels, if you bend one you'll be out $1300+ each. I've had no mechanical issues or replacement parts other than the battery, I still have my original brake pads, albeit I only have 32K miles on her. Super dependable, but my wife (a GLC 300 owner) hates it because it sits so low, and the back seat does suck if you have adults back there. I garage this over the winter with a trickle charge on the battery, but it does do well in the snow with the AWD, sporting all seasons or better. I don't plan on selling this one any time soon :-)
