  • Best SUV I have ever driven - 2006 Mercedes-Benz M-Class
    By -

    I have had my ML350 for 4 months now, and have driven on a couple of extended trips during that time. As well as it drives, it looks even better. Folks really check it out when I drive by! The handling is superb, and it is a very quick, comfortable machine to drive. I thought the 20.5 mpg on the highway was a tad low, but, I do have a tendency to drive a bit faster than a good speed for economical driving. My wife loves to drive the suv, and she says she feels very safe and comfortable in it. I am 67 and I have had my share of luxury vehicles. I would recommend this vehicle to anyone looking for the safety and practicality of an SUV, and the comfort of a luxury car.

    Had an old Ml320 for 5 years and like it. This one is a far better car , drives better , looks better and has all this bells and whistles. It doesn`t drive like a SUV anymore. High quality vehicle.

  • Absolutely Amazing! - 2006 Mercedes-Benz M-Class
    By -

    Just bought it and I love it. It is really fun to drive. The interior is very comfortable and all components are at your fingertips. The gear shift is innovative and easy to use. I love the new design. In fact, I cant stop looking at it, and its the same for other drivers. Excellent performance. The ride is so smooth even at high speed. Engine is real quiet but purrs upon acceleration. I would recommend this car to anyone.

  • Full Marks to MB - 2006 Mercedes-Benz M-Class

    Im probably one of the first buyers of this 06 ML350. An awesome drive, very quiet, low road noise, and excellent navigation.The best transmission in the industry. It makes the RX look like a baby toy crying for more room and horsepower. I already have driven 5500 miles. I love it.

  • Nice Car - 2006 Mercedes-Benz M-Class

    Terrific all around vehicle. Very reliable, as I never had to bring it in for service other than regular scheduled service.

  • Got it right in 2006 - 2006 Mercedes-Benz M-Class
    By -

    Bought my 2006 ML350 in November 05 and so far Im very pleased. Love the look and feel; performance is excellent. Gas mileage not bad for its class. MB finally got it right with ML series in 06.

  • Got to love it - 2006 Mercedes-Benz M-Class
    By -

    14,000 miles and we still love it. It is a very quiet, extremly comfortable ride. It is almost sporty, and the the fuel economy averages 20 MPG mixed driving. When on the highway you can experience over 24 MPG. I like the 7 speed transmission with the shift knobs at the steering wheel, and overtaking is incredibly easy thanks to the V6 which never seems to run out of breath. It is very safe with a lot of standard safty features (Vehicle stability control, brake assist and more) and it is roomier than its outside will tell you. It drives and behaves like a much smaller car with all the advantages of a 4x4 SUV. I buy it again in a heartbeat. Great car.

  • Beautiful In All Ways - 2006 Mercedes-Benz M-Class
    By -

    I did my research before buying my ML350. I love it! Its beautiful and rides like a dream. Im on the road a lot and needed a comfortable ride. I am also tall, so it was important that there was great leg and head room. It runs great! Absolutely no complaints. The controls and gadgets inside are designed with a lot of thought to detail. Its a fun SUV to drive and I would recommend it above the competition any day. Drive one today if you are looking for beauty inside and out, you wont be sorry.

  • Great SUV - 2006 Mercedes-Benz M-Class
    By -

    After riding in the Lexus and BMW, this was the best and most fun to drive. It just says luxury. The controls could be better positioned, but overall its a great buy for the price.

  • Great SUV - 2006 Mercedes-Benz M-Class
    By -

    Bought this gorgeous suv in November, 05. Test drove the Escalade, Bmw X5, Lexus GS, Porsche S, and VW Touareg. Narrowed my choice down to the ML-500 because it was just great looking, had the largest engine and the fasest out of all the other 5 i drove. I favored the rims on this, I purchased the AMG spoke rims look sharp mean and tough, The navigation system is great for the road trips, Handling is the best out of all the others also! You cant go wrong, it drives like a dream! I also own a BMW M3 and it handles and drives just as good on the street!
