Taming the Beast
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.

Chinese parts
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.

Constantly in shop
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.

Great car but missing a few things.
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!
Best sedan and most powerful sedan car!
