    Driving it in city traffic is like having a domestic house cat sitting on you lap purring. Drop the hammer on the open road and it transforms into a Bengal Tiger.

    I have owned Ferrari, other AMG Mercedes, several SL500s, Corvettes, and I would divorce my wife before giving up this car for any reason. I cant wait to go to work in the morning to drive down the winding grade I live on top of, and going up is just as exhilarating. This is the best car I have ever owned. I also own the S550 and never drive it....why would I?

    I have been waiting for this car since I was a boy, when I first saw the 300SL in Cleveland. Everything done well, but I would improve the quality of the interior a wee bit. I know one must consider damage by climatic elements in a convertible, but if the leather shows too much wear, one can always replace it.

    An awesome machine. Had a 1998 SL500 and loved it. Amazing that Mercedes could improve on an almost perfect car.

    Our third SL (1991 and 1999) - almost every feature has been imprcved - most notable improvements are ride, noise.handling and styling - Very pleased with this car.

    After having owned 2 XKRs, I can say that the SL-class is a worthy adversary. Beauty (and brains) power this Mercedes machine! High-tech everything! VERY Comftorable! Fast! Fast! Fast!

    This is my 8th Mercedes and by far the most fun to drive. Not bad looking either!

  • Loving my 05 SL600 - 2004 Mercedes-Benz SL-Class
    By -

    i have not yet put on 1000mi., but this is simply the most wonderful car I have ever driven. This car is an "iron fist in a velvet glove". It is smooth, silky, solid, and fast to drive. This black beauty is beautiful to behold, top up or down. This happens very quickly. The seats are comfortable, yet firm. Whether its a trip to the store, or a cruise up north for a 100 miles, I cant wait to drive it.
