"I've just had my new GLK350 for 3 days now, and it has totally wowed me. I ordered and waited for a 2013 model so I could benefit from the latest technology and gas saving measures. Both features were well worth the wait! The salesman synched my I- phone to it right away so I could enjoy the hands- free and voice command features. The ECO gas-saving plan turns off my engine at red lights, but I can't detect it happening. It's operation is very smooth. I also love night driving with my new bi -xenon lights. Nice and bright-- I feel so much safer with that and my new rear-view camera, plus blind-spot assistance. After owning my 2002 c240 for 11 years, which I also loved, my new 2013 GLK350 has welcomed me with warmth and pizzazz!"

"The most beautiful thing about this SUV is that it drives like a car and the transmission is silk smooth. Handling is not as good as my 2011 BMW 535i, but it is effortless to drive. Cons: There is wind noise even at low speed. Interior is is refined, but not luxurious. rear seats space and cargo space are small."

"I already have a 2012 GLK 350, but decided to at least test drive the 2013 too. I loved it. It's just like the old one in so many ways. I decided that I just had to get it. So I bought it and have no regrets. Its silent when your just driving but it roars like an XKR when you put your foot down. It rides soft in ECO mode and firm in Sport. I love the paddle shift feature but I miss having the gear selector in the center console. I just feel a bit old with it being a column shifter so I have to make up for it by driving in manual mode all the time. Space seems a little better than the old model and I like the extra power from the DI 3.5 V6 vs. the last model's MPFI 3.5 V6. All in all it is a brilliant car but I cannot honestly say I like it better than the OG model. It just feels like it was redesigned for an older crowd, while the old model felt younger and more vibrant to me. I love this car don't get me wrong, but where I wanted The Godfather II, I instead got The Bourne Supremacy. It's good but the original will always have a special place in you collection."
