Used 2011 Mercedes-Benz SL-Class Consumer Reviews

Experienced Mercedes Man

I have owned several Mercedes in the past. I mostly prefer AMG models over the standard ones. This car is just gorgeous. I could have opted for the SL55 amg or the SL65 AMG, but to be honest they were very expensive. This car is not exactly cheap, but it sure is beautiful!

I bought a performance SL

If you're buying this car, you're buying a performance vehicle so enjoy the quirks. If your have any doubts watch Jay Leno drive a 09 SL 63. It's able to run with pretty much anything yet be a reliable vehicle . That's the reason you buy this vehicle for the performance, comfort and sound track, if you have any complaints or interests then buy something else.

It's an awesome AMG!

Wow, what a ride!

The sl63 is simply exhilarating in performance, anesthetics, and curb appeal. I sold my 1988 sl 560 and had sellers remorse. I found a 2011 with 12K miles. It has headers which is another story, but this car is magical. I agree with other comments regarding controls and their ergonomics or lack there of, but who cares. You can take the radio and GPS out of the car and just drive. WOW!!!!

2008 SL 550 is the best Car Ever.

All car companies have been trying for Years to make a car like the SL. Nobody has ever come close into the Speed, Design, Shape, A Retractable Top,,, ( we all know it hard ). Even this web page don’t know this car enough and they call it a SL convertible,,, (stupidity on Edmunds part - just call it SL Class ). This SL in 2008 was the first 5.5 liter V-8, naming the car SL 550. It has 400 HP, but when you really drive this car, it seems more HP under the hood and the torque is high up too. Plus,,, this car is not a Sports Car, it’s GT car ( grand tour ),,,AMG version maybe a sports cars to be more run against Porsche or maybe a Vet competitor. SL 550 is to be Luxury and Fast,,,, training on the Audubon to drive. Sunny and over cast or rain, up the mountains to throw around on the curves or a run to the Beach at the Jersey Shore or down 95 South to Fort Lauderdale. Let’s not forget that the best looking SL 550 in Mars Red gets the best rating for looking fast, sexy, hot and no competition. ( that’s just seeing the car sitting still ) Even to Today cars,, this car keeps up with M40, Hemi, and most engines at 500 horses and still the best looking. Remember Car and Drive put a cap on their award issues and at the time of the SL Years since 1982, there was nothing better than an SL. The car been around longer than any other car label. Today the SL is the top of line car for Mercedes. The SL is a history making vehicle, major competition that no other car company could make a car like this. This was the car that rich or poor, people dreamed about. Even if you did not know about cars,,, this was the luxurious car out there.
