Used 2003 Mercedes-Benz SL-Class Consumer Reviews
Best MB
I traded my CLK55 and my wife's SLK320 for the SL500 - it's the best of both worlds. Great fun on the curves, acceptable power and lots of comfort. Its the best of the 5 MB's I've owned.

Outstanding !
This is an outstanding vehicle to drive. The security of a coupe with the ability to become a convertable at the push of a button. I have the Sport package, which in my opion, makes for an incredibly attractive looking car. On a 1400 mile trip I averaged 24 mpg, with a speed average of 70 mph. This included all stops. I think that is very good fuel ecomony.
Great ride
This car has been fun. Great on the road. Integrated phone and voice commands make you wonder how you lived without them. The convertible is extremely quiet, you can have a discussion at a whisper at highway speeds with the hardtop down. Small problems and Mercedes less than perfect service are the major shortcoming.
Nice, but should've bought a 911 Turbo
The car is great, except that I really wish the car had 6sp manual transmission. The auto tranny doesn't do the engine justice at all. The car runs surprisingly slow compared with all the 'hype' I had read. I guess my expectations were too high.
