S500, What A Nice Car

I own 3/4 Mercedes and the S500, 2000 is one of the best I have ever owned in it class. Its such an enjoyment to drive on trips and are around town. I like the body design classic! I also find it to be a easy car to do maintenance on. I purchased the car with 40,000 miles! I now have 70,000! What a great car! Cars do have problems but if you keep the service maintenance up you have less!

RUN- A DISAPPOINTMENT

What a disappointment. Spoke to the saleman three times prior to making a 250 mile trip. Was told the car was in excellent shape with no issues. Saleman was aware that we were taking the long trip. Once we got there, car needed the boost-it to start, broken mirror and radio antenna. The car is a S430 but the back signage was S500 which was difficult to see from the pictures on the internet and the same saleman stated before we were going to test drive that there was some type of noise coming from the engine. DON'T WASTE YOUR TIME OR MONEY.

Most comfortable and most powerful car

First thing i realized was the heated and cooled, and massaged front seats... then i realized the quality of the leather, how amazing it is. The bose sound system was outstanding, and all of the options of this car has would have to go on 2 different reviews because there is not enough room to right them all down. I am a huge BMW fan, I always thought BMWs were faster, but i was wrong. The 5.0 V8 is one of the fastest i have ever drove. You cant feel the speed either. I got the car upto 130, let both hands of the steering wheel, so smooth, no vibration. I actually got the 1/4mile in 14.3 seconds, stock. This car is the most comfortable car i have ever drove, no wonder diplomats and ambassadors always chose the s-class. I had a caddilac, a lexus, bmw, fords, none of them were near as comfortable as this car. Its like you are driving on air.... Buy this car, and you will not regret it.

Life in good hands

I purchased this car 2 years ago a month after I had I was in an accident the whole front end gone $9000 worth of damage.Luckly I did not get hurt nor my passenger we were totally protected. The body shop did a wonderful job because the car looks brand new no damage.This is a very safe car believe me it is safe,fast and very reliable and I'm going to keep it till it's a classic or to the wheels fall off
