  Comfort zone - 2005 Mercedes-Benz CL-Class
  By Philip Kennedy - January 1 - 8:13 pm

  Left the 330BMW convertible as it was both uncomfortable and small. The CL500 has made my wife and I feel that it has put us back in a smooth ride again it makes us feel very safe.The style is nice as there isnt a window bar betwween the front and back window giving you as close a feeling to being in a convertable. Very roomy with enough horse power to get onto a parkway that is moving at a fairly fast pace.

  Awesome - 2005 Mercedes-Benz CL-Class
  By Amy - June 3 - 1:40 pm

  Excellent vehicle - luxury, sporty and powerful. Very comfortable and drives itself. Sound system is top notch. Navigation system is easy to use - not complicated at all as others have rated. It is a gas guzzler, however it is worth the extra premium gas price because the ride is awesome. Mercedes employees are very helpful and so professional. I love it.

  JUST ABOUT BEST MONEY CAN BUY - 2005 Mercedes-Benz CL-Class
  By LETCHAW - March 21 - 10:00 am

  TRADED IN A 2004 MB 500. THAT CAR WAS A DELIGHT TO OWN, BUT NOW WITH THE CL500S IT FEELS LIKE I AM FLOATING ON A SOFT CLOUD INTO HEAVEN. WISH I COULD HAVE HAD PARKTRONIC WITH IT, BUT DEALERS INVENTORY DID NOT HAVE ANY IN STOCK. AND I WANTED IT NOW, NOT LATER!

  Incredible for the money on the used market - 2005 Mercedes-Benz CL-Class
  By syberfilm - March 12 - 12:43 am

  I have about 150,000 miles on my CL65. I always wanted a 65 but was told not to get one because of the expense to work on. Let me tell you this is ultra reliable and way cheaper then my Ferrari. I have only had to issues in over 100K of driving. I bought it used with about 50K on it. First issue was a coil unit went out and I had to replace it. Cost about $2,500. The other issue, the ABC was drooping. The shop wanted over $3,000 to fix. I found a video on youtube and did it myself. for about $400 US. I am not very mechanical at all. It took me all day to do. But saved some bucks. Other then those two issues. The car has been a dream. I just do the scheduled maintenance and drive.

  Everyone needs this car - 2005 Mercedes-Benz CL-Class
  By james - January 2 - 11:46 am

  This car is beautiful to look at and even more awesome to drive. It seats four adults technically, although the backseat can be a tad small. Navigation system is easy to use - not complicated at all as others have rated. It is a gas guzzler, however it is worth the extra premium gas price because the ride is awesome. I love it.I love the horsepower.I love the smell of the car, once again .This car is beautiful to look at and even more awesome to drive. Mercedes-Benz, thanks for all the hard work

  Power...Luxury...Perfection - 2005 Mercedes-Benz CL-Class
  By Tom C - October 13 - 11:56 pm

  I have owned my CL65 for almost two years and put almost 28K miles on it during this time. What an amazing car. It is literally a perfect combination of luxury and performance. The interior is still very pleasing to the eye and touch with high quality materials and fit. I still love the elegant and classic lines of the exterior. The torque is just unbelievable. The chassis does have a hard time corralling all that power...but you learn to be judicious with when/where you prod the throttle. I have previously owned an E39 M5 and Audi RS6, and I cant imagine getting rid of the CL65. There just isnt anything out there that compares (new CL65s weigh 200+lbs more with same power).

  The Definition of an Automobile - 2005 Mercedes-Benz CL-Class
  By PetLife - May 22 - 3:30 pm

  This is flat out, undeniably, the definition of fantastic motoring. Ive owned BMWs, Audis, Porsches, Japans best, Italys best, and even other Mercedes, but the CL55 takes the cake. The whole cake and all the frosting. Even the frosting flowers. Its great looking, comfortable, sporty, safe, easy to drive slow or fast, and goes like a hell cat with its tail on fire when summoned. If you have the cash and youre looking for the complete package, look no further than this car. No excuses and dissapointments here. Youll thank me later.
