Used 2006 Mercedes-Benz SL-Class Consumer Reviews
BUY IT!
BEST CAR YOU WILL EVER OWN. I OWNED CORVETTES IN THE PAST UP UNTIL 2004 WHEN I BOUGHT MY SL500. I KNOW ITS TWICE THE PRICE BUT ITS THREE TIMES THE QUALITY. BASE ENGINE IS QUICK BUT IF YOU WANT ALL OUT PERFORMANCE BUY THE SL600.
The sl 500 is a work of art
what I love, is that it is an 8 cylinder power house. It's fast and smooth. It's not a super car. It has about 300hp not bad for a small car. I love the hardtop convertible. The negatives are 1. Because it has an air lift system, that will go on you sometime. Mine went at 40,000 mi. I found someone to fix it for $850., but the dealership will want about $3000. I keep mine in perfect condition. 50k mi. I would recommend this model for anyone, as the used price should be affordable. I've seen these models at auctions etc., at good prices, but the interiors were somewhat beat. I have to say mine is stellar in and out. I paid 33k 12 years ago.

Be careful who you buy from!!!!!!!!!!!
Take it to a Mercedes dealer and have the car inspected before you buy from a off brand dealer!!!!!!!!! My problem was with the dealer. I would tell anyone, not to buy a car from them. The dealer has no clue on the up keep of the vehicles and will not go out of his way to help you fix the problem!!!!! Edmunds, made a point to make sure i didn't get my gas card!!!!!

Acceleration with music
The machine's near 500 horsepower combined with its sophisticated sound system (with Sirius radio)means that you never have to go home, if you don't want to.
Fourth SL
SL600 is the fourth SL Mercedes owned and positively the best vehicle
