A Must have

The best looking Mercedes coupe to this day. Mine has been very reliable and inexpensive to own. I've owned both the CL600 and the CL500. I feel like the CL500 is a bit better overall. It's lighter and that makes a difference. The interior and options are all you could ask for. Driving this car makes you feel special.
