Everything. A new SL debuts to replace the previous version, which dated back to 1990.

- Heavy for a "sports car," limited cargo capacity, nav system is old-tech CD-ROM format.

More than just a pretty face - 2003 Mercedes-Benz SL-Class
By stem - January 22 - 2:00 amI was drawn to this car by its looks but am more impressed by its performance. For me it strikes the perfect balance between a sports car and a luxury car. I use to think BMW was the ultimate driving machine. I do not think that any longer

WOW! - 2003 Mercedes-Benz SL-Class
By skyking4hire - November 18 - 10:00 amIve had it for a month and have never owned a car that got so much attention, and to my surprise it is well deserved. I have never enjoyed driving this much, and the power is awesome-and I race cars competitively. . .

Its all about appearances. - 2003 Mercedes-Benz SL-Class
By berwanger1 - October 7 - 10:30 pmThis is the most beautiful car I have owned...really turns heads. Interior would score equally high but for the use of too much hard, cheap plastic. Handling and power are just okay, hampered by the excessive weight of the car. Problem is, such a striking exterior design and the high price raise expectations of super performance and quality materials. Not the case. Leather is cracking and discoloring. Paint seems thin; chips easily Also, lots of noise coming from under the car, like gears whining, bearings grinding, yet everything is okay. Noise level is unacceptable in car of this rank. Dealer service has been great, but parts are ridiculously expensive. Not a great drive.

Still the best convertible! - 2003 Mercedes-Benz SL-Class
By carlover14 - September 29 - 10:00 amI Love my new SL500, I will keep it for a long time. It retains the classic interior looks of the SLs Ive loved for so long. I love everything about this car, but then again Im a Mercedes freak.

2003 Certified Used SL55 - 2003 Mercedes-Benz SL-Class
By miles of smiles - July 25 - 2:36 amI purchased a 2003 certified Diamond Silver SL55 avoiding the $50K depreciation. What a car. Incredible looks and power, and a great sounding rumble. The car is truely amazing, yet the navigation is dated years compared to Lexus. I have no regrets in the first 2,000 miles. I have heard both positive and negative reviews for the car so I purchased the extended warranty to 100K miles. It appears to be hit or miss with some of the cars with the research Ive done.
