This car is an absolute dream to drive but the quality of the interior is not what a 100K should be. Very cheap feel wnd sounding. Ride is MUCH noisier than I thought it should be. Gas milage @15mi/gal around town. New back body design makes it look like a cheap car and not identifiable as an expensive Mercedes SL. Although I always buy SL Mercedes, this will be my last unless they make the car LOOK like 100K

I ordered this car after 9/11 and waited un til I did not have to pay a premium (actually received the car in 10/02). A squeek took a few visits to fix, but M-B did "everything" to take care of it. It is a dream to drive -- hard to believe it is so firm, even with the top down. Absolutely no cowl shake. A real looker.

Great car. Would own two so we don't have to share. Car was delivered 7/02 and we have had no problems. Best decision I've ever made. Love the Aegean Blue color. There is plenty of truck space - Two sets of clubs, four pairs of golf shoes, a suit bag and a duffle bag - AND put the top down! Who says there is not enough truck space. Also purchased the SL suit case that fits on the back shelf with its own seat belts. Looks fast standing still! Handles great at 130.

MY 2004 SL500 IS A WONDERFUL AUTOMOBILE BUT PRICED 30% HIGH. THIS IS NUMBER 7 SINCE 2000 AND I'VE LOST MONEY ON ALL 7. HOW ABOUT GETTING A LITTLE HELP FROM THE DEALER.
