Used 2001 Mercedes-Benz S-Class S500 4dr Sedan (5.0L 8cyl 5A) Consumer Reviews
Too Many Glitches for $100k car
This has been a love-hate relationship. The dealership has been great about fixing things, but now that I'm out of warranty with 57k miles, it seems like too much is going wrong. Tire pressure sensors, AC failures, oil leaks... despite all that, it's the most comfortable ride I've ever owned. Great balance between smooth handling/feel and keeping in touch with the road.
Love this Car
Have owned several BMW's, Jaguars and E class Mercedes and not one comes close to matching quality and the ride of this S500. Quick acceleration. Super quiet at highway speeds and comfortable on long trips. COMAND system is a bit of a pain...

S500 review
With the exception of the items mentioned below the overall quality and ownership experience of this vehicle has been excellent.
Mercedes Benz S500 year 2001
This car in the new generation of electronics, after almost 10 years of driving still excellent.
S500 disspointment
I owned the last generation S class and it was a lot better than this one. The interior looks cheap for a flagship model, the maintence fees are very high after the warranty is over and the value is down the toliet. I only put 8000 miles on it in a year and it has dropped so much in value. I should of bought a BMW instead
