  Never Had Better....BUT - 2003 Mercedes-Benz SL-Class
  By AL - September 20 - 5:33 pm

  I have had many cars but this car has to be the best all around car ever.It is the ultimate GT car,sports,coupe convertible,luxury and hot rod.I dont believe there is a car in the world that works better in a combined package.I cant wait to get my four year old 2009 SL65 at a $100,000.00 + discount. Im pretty sure I got mine for about the cost of a new loaded mini van...

  Looks good. But thats it. - 2003 Mercedes-Benz SL-Class
  By WritrguyLA - September 5 - 2:00 am

  In the shop every month since I bought it. Too many electronic features I guess, because something is ALWAYS breaking. And speaking of brakes, be ready to replace them within the first year. And its not covered. And the ride is not sporty, its more luxury.

  Never a disappointment - 2003 Mercedes-Benz SL-Class
  By Blonde - July 30 - 10:00 am

  Had already the old modell and loved every moment of it. It is a pleasure to enjoy such wonderful German technology. The new one is just amazing and so much fun to drive. To me its like a piece of art and I treasure every moment.

  The SL55 Rocks! - 2003 Mercedes-Benz SL-Class
  By RickSL55 - May 22 - 2:00 am

  This car is truly awesome! The combination of power and luxury is unmatched by anything else on the road. I sold my Lexus LS400, Honda S2000 and Mercedes SLK32. Dont need them anymore!

  Electrical Gremlins Abound - 2003 Mercedes-Benz SL-Class
  By Nero - May 10 - 7:03 pm

  Car has left me stranded and in need of towing 5 times now in 3 years. It has so many electrical problems that no one can figure out, the last time I took it to the dealer for the same thing and spent $3,000 with no real fix. Looks good, is very fast but too heavy to be a real sports car, it drinks gas, and is very unreliable and expensive to own. Another thumbs down for Mercedes recent product offerings, do you research and youll find many reports of their shoddy quality in their modern cars.

  Dealers and Corp should listen to custom - 2003 Mercedes-Benz SL-Class
  By ac crenshaw - March 18 - 10:00 am

  The overall performance of the car is excellent. The issue that I have is one of service. I had a problem with service at an Atlanta Dealer, wrote the corporate customer service folks and copied Mr. Halata of MBUSA and got a response which in essence just "blew me off." After owning at least 5 MB over the last 10 years I find that the dealers have become extremely proud of these cars to the extent that they are becoming arrogant. Sales without the necessary support staff means that this will be my last MB for a while. People do business with people who show them that they care. MBUSA has shown me that they "NO LONGER CARE."

  mid life convertable - 2003 Mercedes-Benz SL-Class
  By jack1560 - August 17 - 10:00 am

  i have made it. driving this car shows i know automobles. i have owned bmw, Ferrari and many many cars. The car handles like it is on a rail. With the top down and the roll bar up i can still maintain a conversation with my passenger without yelling. I like driving the car by myself and just get into the driving and shifting.
