Used 2010 Mercedes-Benz GLK-Class SUV Consumer Reviews
my thoughts on the GLK
So far so good! The car has a handsome exterior and interior. It's nice inside, but not cozy like an E class. I don't mind however because you can't have it all. The acceleration is a little bit of a disappointment, but I can deal with it because the handling makes up for it. The car feels fairly tight in turns, smooth, quiet like you're in your own world, and solid. Oh, and the headlights look pretty nice even without having the bi-xenons. That was a pleasant surprise. Overall it's a good value for being a baby Benz.
Great Car so far
My positive reactions to this car far out way any negative feelings. We have had severe snow for the last three weeks and it seems impossible to get stuck. It goes through everything. The upright angle of the windshield tends to collect too many bugs during summer and the climate controls and cruise control lever are in an poor location. Power is reminiscent of the V8s back in the 60s except smooth. I have gotten up to 24 MPG on a long trip driving at 65 the whole way and I have gotten as low as 17 when pushing the gas peddle harder. Back seat room is minimal and there is not much space for holding things outside the glove box, or in the glove box for that matter. The ride is sweet and quiet.

Beats the X3 by a mile (or three)!
Just having gotten rid of our 2 year lease on the X3, this is a delightful vehicle! It's been 100% trouble free for over 2500 miles and 2 months now...WAY better ride and handling than the X3....(my fillings are staying in my teeth!) Contrary to others' opinions, I think the build quality and finish on the interior are very nice....and the MB-Tex is great stuff....who needs leather!? Our first MB.....and WON'T be our last if this a good indicator of their current line up!
Mercedes has done it again!
I drove the Volvo XC60, the Audi Q5, the VW Toureg. None handled as well, or had the build quality of the Mercedes. Oddly enough, the Mercedes was the lowest price. I have had my GLK for 2 weeks. It is a pleasure to drive, and, unlike some other reviewers, I do not have any complaints about the gas mileage (I am getting around 20mpg). My previous car (and Audi A4) only got 22. I would highly recommend this vehicle.
A Great Little SUV
I've had my GLK 350 a week now, and I love it--particularly the styling and comfortable ride and the vault-like build quality. It doesn't look like every other compact SUV on the road. It has a very masculine look (unlike the melted soap bar profile of so many smaller SUVs).
