Overview & Reviews

There is more power for the CL55 and CL600 models, both of which now put out nearly 500 horsepower. All CLs see a number of other subtle changes, such as new head- and taillight lenses, a Pre-Safe safety feature, revised switchgear and a larger COMAND screen.

• High performance, dizzying array of high-tech features, classic styling, comfortable long-distance cruiser for two.

• Complex navigation and audio systems, cramped rear seat, expensive.

  AMG CL-55 2003 - 2003 Mercedes-Benz CL-Class
  By JJGMD - July 22 - 10:00 am

  As far as design , comfort, jet like power and acceleration at all speeds it does not get any better. Has all the toys you would expect in a vehicle this price but this car is built to enjoy and last for many years. Easy to adjust the height and suspension of the CL.Corners are easy to take with total control at all times. Voice activated phone and radio and CDs actually are reliable. Three choices to shift gears. Worth the wait.

  My first 5000 miles - 2003 Mercedes-Benz CL-Class
  By Ron Greenspan - April 27 - 10:00 am

  I traded a 2002 M5 for this beast so I am very familiar with high performance cars. This is a true luxury car with blinding performance and incredible comfort. You can drive for hundreds of miles and still want to keep going. The seats are extremely comfortable and it has all the toys and technology you could ask for. Its a dream. It is not a sports car but does fairly well in the curves. The brakes are good but it is a heavy car so you have to allow for some distance to stop as compared to a lighter Porsche. The torque is immense and available at any speed. A deeper exhaust sound and a lower ride height would be my only fixes.

  By Barb - April 15 - 8:46 am

  I have owned serveral other Mercedes vehicles and luxury vehicles but the 2003 CL55 AMG has displayed it all. Fun to drive, high performance, comfortable front seats, good sound system and not to leave out it looks great on the road. I am currently waiting for the 2007 to come out, I want another.

  Design, Safety, Performance and Luxury - 2003 Mercedes-Benz CL-Class
  By ADP - February 25 - 2:00 am

  The CL55 is a supercar. Its dynamic performance matches that of a number of two seat sports cars that are widely considered supercars. Despite the performance capabilities, the car is quite comfortable and quiet. The Automatic Body Control is amazing, as are the brakes. The build quality is very good. My experience with the car has been entirely satisfactory.

  It tickles me - 2003 Mercedes-Benz CL-Class
  By FILSEE - August 2 - 10:00 am

  It still continues to exceed my performance expectations and in my estimation is a stronger, beefier design than the 2007 model change.

  Best Ever - 2003 Mercedes-Benz CL-Class
  By Coppy - April 21 - 2:00 am

  Ive owned most makes over 40 years,MB since 1969, every high line Mercedes made in the last 20 years (no AMGs) and this by far the finest and most reliable car of all. After eight months of ownership the car remains flawless, is perfectly comfortable and a blast to drive.
