Used 2009 Mercedes-Benz SL-Class Consumer Reviews
Best and Sexy Convertible
Comparing to 06'911S, it's slower but more modern interior features. Command System in 09'SL is so old to same year in LS460. Exterior and interior of this SL550 are so sexy in Red/Tan. I'm really loving this 09'SL better than 05'SL,560SL,380SL and 280SL I had before!
A refined SL
This is my third SL since the new style was introduced in 2003. The 2007 model is the best I have driven to date. Everything in the car is updated and refined. If Mercedes quality whent down a bit, it is back to a higher standered with the 2007 edition.

More fun than allowed
This is my second Benz. The sl is fun, fast and better mpg than the manufacturer states - if I don't feel the need to pass everyone on the road (hard to do!) I'm getting consistently 24+ on the highway. Don't hesitate. Get one.
Great Car
This is also my 3rd SL of this series (prev '04 and '06). Tried to swith to either XKR or 650. Just not comparable. Love the improved handling, firmer brakes and increased power. Quality still perfect. Note to other buyers. Make sure you get the Michelin Tires (versus Continentals). Better ride.
Overall- great luxury sports/touring car
Overall a great luxury sports/touring car. Due to its active suspension (ABC) it can cruise like a S-class but it stiffens up for almost no lean in the fun twistees and corners-Amazing! The transmission senses when you need punch and adjusts to your driving style by the second-a great feature since your driving reactions can be so dynamic in today's crazy traffic. You can adjust the way the car handles from comfort to sport (including ride height) with a push of a button.
