  • The best car ever - 2006 Mercedes-Benz M-Class
    By -

    I got the ML350 with the suede seats which are very comfortable, and the 3 zone air conditioning system which keeps everyone satisfied. I definitely recommend the purchase of the ML350.

  • A great step forward - 2006 Mercedes-Benz M-Class
    By -

    The 2006 model is a giant leap over the past models. (I have previously owned a 1998 ML 320 and a 2000 ML 430.) The level of comfort, luxury and attention to detail is far better in the 2006 vehicle. I finally feel like Im riding in a Mercedes!

  • Mixed Bag - 2006 Mercedes-Benz M-Class
    By -

    I have driven luxury vehicles for years, and this is certainly not a BMW 5 series. The build quality is just not there. Having said that, it was the best value for the money I could find in a SUV. I am really impressed by the gas mileage. I am getting up to 28 on the highway and 24 in town - which I find amazing. I do have a beef with the nav system - it should be mounted on the counsel for ease of use and the knob should be larger. It also seems outdated already and the lack of voice commands is a major drawback. Yes, the transmission is also flawed and it does not want to shift up as quickly as it should. All in all, though, I am very happy with my purchase.

  • Much better than previous MLs. - 2006 Mercedes-Benz M-Class
    By -

    With trepidation we traded in our 00 320. When it ran it was great. But the electronics were constantly signaling trouble, sometimes turning out to be real. This is a different vehicle, a very different vehicle. It runs great, handles great, and feels great. We are impressed with our first running of it. Everything is fine (but the power steering recall is a bit of a concern, but at least they are fixing it) but the navigation system takes some learning (I wish we had a 12-year old to do this for us). The finish is fine, the acceleration is very good, and the ride outstanding. We like it and look forward to this being the ML and MB we have wanted.

  • Nice effort - 2006 Mercedes-Benz M-Class
    By -

    Just traded my wifes Lexus LX470 for the new ML. Nice car. She found the LX too big for her to drive as she does not drive the freeways, so in a smaller segment, this is the best product out there.Not enough standard features for a 50k auto! Dont compare it with the LX470. Other than that, this car has more bang for the buck than any other SUV on the road!

  • Good ML - 2006 Mercedes-Benz M-Class
    By -

    I bought this SUV as a second hand from the MB dealer in Vancouver Canada. When got car it had 10000 km ,the car works pretty good till now i drove about 30000 km in 8 months , it never let me down .

  • Awsome Benz - 2006 Mercedes-Benz M-Class
    By -

    This is an awesome SUV. It truly rides like a car, handles corners well, and the ride feels like floating on air. The power of this new engine is astonishing, a slight press on the gas pedal, and you can feel yourself being pulled by the 350 engine.

  • Got mine a week after they hit the road - 2006 Mercedes-Benz M-Class
    By -

    I love it. Handling is amazing.The whole feel of the car, and I say car, feels so much better then the old ML. Go out and get one!

  • Best M-Class Ever! - 2006 Mercedes-Benz M-Class
    By -

    When I first drove the new M-Class I was shocked. I had never driven a vehicle, ANY vehicle, that after a test drive, I decided right then and there to buy it. The build quality is second to none. Power eveywhere you need it, at any RPM. I only wish I had waited for the AMG version with over 475 horsepower. The AMG version will be stronger and better built than the Porsche SUV, and cost less. Outstanding quality!

  • Very Good Vehicle - 2006 Mercedes-Benz M-Class
    By -

    Have only had it for 4 weeks, but have driven 3000 miles. So far, not a single problem. The ride and handling are excellent with the air suspension. Power is very good with the v-6 and the 7 speed transmission seems to always be in the right gear.
