  Benz is back! - 2006 Mercedes-Benz CLS-Class
  By JimG - July 26 - 8:06 pm

  This car is absolutely stunning, and with the seven speed transmission, 302 HP feels like 402! Less than 6 sec. to 60 in a first class luxury sedan is nothing to sneeze at. The build quality feels superb like previous generation Benzes when engineering came first and the price was set as an afterthought. Anyone looking at this level will be impressed with this car...if they can find one to see and drive. This makes my 7th Benz in 13 years and it is without question the best of the batch including my vaunted 92 S class. No car is perfect, but for me, this one comes very close.

  Sleek - 2006 Mercedes-Benz CLS-Class
  By Dr B.Singh - June 29 - 5:36 am

  I bought this car for my wife but i have been driving it more for now. No doubt it is one of the best Mercedes we have. Cup holders are neat but do interfere with moving the shift stick. One may spill his/her coffee. Storage space in between front seats is small .I would like to have small space to put my papers in front console. A cover to accomadate a fifth passenger/child would help in rear middle. It definitely however turns heads.

  New CLS 500 - 2006 Mercedes-Benz CLS-Class
  By Cliff McGahee - June 20 - 5:46 am

  Have only had the car less than a week, but it is beautiful, silky smoothe, and couldnt be more satisfied. Silver, with dark red interior and most of the add-ons - no keyless go. Not one thing wrong with it - no adjustments needed.

  Great all around car - 2006 Mercedes-Benz CLS-Class
  By Scott Price - January 22 - 2:16 pm

  I have owned my CLS55 for four months. I had very high expectations for this car having owned other higher end high performance vehicles. The car has surpassed all of my expectations. I am 61" and dont have any problem getting in or out of the vehicle which I read might be a problem. I have sat in the back seat for extented periods of time and found it very comfortable. The performance on the car is amazing. The dash layout is extremely functional. The trunk is large. This is the ultimate family of four car. My wife who historically has had no interest in cars but has owned Range Rovers, 7 series Bimmers, M Bimmers and a CLK Cab. absolutely loves every aspect of this car.

  Its soooo sweet - 2006 Mercedes-Benz CLS-Class
  By Mercedes Loyalist - November 18 - 3:13 am

  Ive only had my CLS500 about a month. It really does turn heads! I have people signal me to roll down my window at intersections just to tell me what a beauty the car is. Traded in a E320 after 2-years and have never been happier with my decision. This car is awesome.

  Love my car - 2006 Mercedes-Benz CLS-Class
  By gigi farrell - November 17 - 8:33 pm

  I love everything about this car ...except the location of the cup holder....that is just in the wrong place. But everything else is so great I can forgivr that..The pick up is fantastic, it is comfortable. It just feels good....and the attention it recieves doesnt hurt either.

  CLS 55 - 2006 Mercedes-Benz CLS-Class
  By Postman - September 3 - 5:13 pm

  The car is unbelievable. I have driven Aston Martins, Porsches and many other sports cars before this one and this is second to none of them. The trunk is large for golf clubs and luggage so you can actually drive this car out of town, what a novel idea. The power is tremendous and the CLS handles very well compared to all the other mercedes available.

  Happy Wife - 2006 Mercedes-Benz CLS-Class
  By L1 - August 22 - 8:40 pm

  Love this car for the styling and performance. We picked it up in Feb 2005 for my wife and it gets stares everywhere we go. It is the best looking Mercedes I have seen since the Gull Wing. The rear seat headroom is marginal as to be expected with any coupe. I am 6 tall and have an inch or two to spare. My wife is very happy with this car and I am considering buying one for myself.
