This is my 3rd Mercedes and it has not disappointed. The engine is quite, the transmission is smooth and the ride is fantastic. The interior is very nicely laid out and extremely comfortable. This is a fantastic vehicle.

I’ve owned this vehicle for 3 years and it is an absolute dream. The transmission is smooth and the engine is quiet. I’ve had zero problems with this SUV.

Luxury suv with goods, bad's and ugly's

I rent the base model when the car rental ran out of cars and gave us an impassible upgrade deal. Car looks great as I caught many glances from passerby like am a rich guy, funny it was when people judge me by the look, oh well!!! Here is the good, bad and the ugly. Good: look, very quiet, feel slow like 55 mph but actually fly at 85, parking assist with great view even in low light, great interior and fitting, really cold a/c, big trunk area, good space 2nd row. Bad: slow acceleration, only use super unleaded at least 91 octane, gas guzzler when use cruise control, no 3rd row, keeps asking me to rest with night driving almost every hour. And the UGLY are: rain activated wipers that wipe like I dance on hot charcoals with no option to control its rate (make visibility nil and very dangerous; better with slower swing so I can still see in between the beats; too fast and the water can't drain off the windshield); next is the rotating selector and the little screen that I can use my finger to write, instead I wanted to give it a finger; an absolutely waste of time, unless Benz replaces it with touch screen than I will call it AWESOMENESS, not yet Benz. The next troll is the seat design. Worse than an "economy" car. Not only my butt but all passengers ended up with butt bruises, well that is a little exacerbated but it was a "pain in the butt". The seats are tooo firm, Benz, unless Germans was spanked so much when little that they have better tolerance. And lumbar support for front seats are bad that I had to snug a small blanket there. Ok, I rant much now so need a break. Until next time...

I Love My GLE

I just want to point out that I’ve never bought a used car before and I absolutely love my 2017 GLE350 4Matic AMG-Night Sport Edition. It has all the creature features that I’ve always wanted such as massaging seats, light up front MB emblem, panoramic roof, soft close doors, temperature controlled cupholders and so much more. I know there is a brand-new model for 2020 and I’m looking into hopefully purchasing another in the next year or so.
