  Best Mercedes out there - 1999 Mercedes-Benz S-Class
  By Benzowner - December 11 - 12:53 am

  I have a 1999 S320, It is my most favorite Mercedes because it has power and it is limited edition bullet proof. The S320 has alot of power considered the weight it has to pull. I would recommend the S320 to anyone. Never had a problem with it yet!

  My Mercedes S-320 (1999) - 1999 Mercedes-Benz S-Class
  By idlexus1 - June 28 - 10:00 am

  This is a great car!! The only problem I have ahd is that I cannot get the windows to consistently roll down with the remote. Theres either a problem in the remote or somewhere in the electrical system. When I take it back for maintenance, I will get that fixed. Otherwise, NO PROBLEM!! Mercedes definitely makes good cars. The price is worth it though.

  resale value went byby - 1999 Mercedes-Benz S-Class
  By white_de - January 14 - 2:00 am

  extremely solid sedan butno dancer in the tulips like earlier MB. Must ignore Dealer on 30-32psi in tires, they have a max of 44 and 40-42 makes it handle much much better. idiots. hate the painted bumpers. exceptional power except when loaded heavy. No real reason to have the eight cylinder unless carrying a band of gypsies on every trip. Very poor ergos for any activities other than transport...do not expect cup holder to function- designed by committee of German engineers with tooooo much time on their hands. KISS! More solid than Lexus430 but not as refined. More elegant than 740 but nowhere as fun to drive

  New buyer /older car - 1999 Mercedes-Benz S-Class
  By Chaz - December 10 - 1:03 pm

  Went from an 89 430 to a 99 420s in late September. Am astonished by all the features and how beautifully this 10 year old car was built. Although I find the brake pedal a bit soft and it travels a little too far...was told by a mechanic that this is normal? Changed the almost worn back brake pads and the pedal now feels closer to normal. Will also bleed the line for trapped air bubbles. May put a little extra air in the tires to see if it improves cornering/handling. Undoing the negative lead on the battery will render the radio inoperable (anti theft feature) and you will have to get the "code" from Mercedes. Must read the owners manual to understand how everything works.

  S420 - The only car - 1999 Mercedes-Benz S-Class
  By Payton - April 13 - 8:30 pm

  First true luxury car. Fun to drive. The acceleration is outstanding for a car of the size and weight. Great car for traveling. Noise level is very minimum compared to other vehicles. There is plenty of leg room for a 62" 245 lb guy. Service record has been excellent. The only major item to fail was covered by a warranty plan. I would purchase another if I had the chance. This one will be in my stable for a long time.

  6 YEARS AND I HAVE ACHIEVED MY DREAM MACHINE - 1999 Mercedes-Benz S-Class
  By pres_bailey - February 27 - 9:26 am

  I bought mine a year ago, and in spite of my love hate relationship with the car, it is still my dream car. My 99 S500 is my second Mercedes, the first being a 420sel, has enough power to move like a F16 in a dog fight with a Boeing 747. She is truly a contender for the greatest car of all time, certainly a top 3 finisher, and even at 14 years old she can still turn heads.

  Super Auto - 1999 Mercedes-Benz S-Class
  By REA - May 14 - 2:00 am

  Bought used, to replace 1995 S420. All around better auto. Great on long trips, bit tedious in local driving. Flexible service a real plus, only functional problem is opening/closing windows/sunroof with fob. Excellent acceleration and passing power. Definitely one of the finest autos I have ever owned. Dealer service has been splendid.

  Finest car made at any price - bar none - 1999 Mercedes-Benz S-Class
  By landman - May 13 - 10:00 am

  I have owned this car for about 2 1/2 years now and its the finest car ever. Solid car that is extremely fun to drive. The car rockets from 65 MPH to 85 MPH at the press of the accelerator, great for highway cruisin. I have had nothing but regular maintenace costs, no repair bills so far. I would argue that if you like the style of a Mercedes, buy it, it could be the last car you buy for many many years. Besides as for as safety goes you will be keeping you and your family safer in this car than ANY other car at ANY cost. Thats value!!

  Niko - 1999 Mercedes-Benz S-Class
  By Natureboy - February 1 - 8:00 pm

  This is by far the best car I have ever owned. Realiable, solid, powerful, luxurious, and safe. Great on long trips. Feels like an SUV. Acceleration is amazing for the kind of weight it carries. We love it so much we even named it "Niko." Instead of buying an entirely new car, I have opted to get new tires and rims. It already has a brand new steering wheel with wood trim, wood shifter, and chocolate brown leather mats.
