2005 Mercedes-Benz S-Class consumer reviews

This car is so comfortable and a real pleasure to drive. The standard Mercedes-Benz Airmatic air suspension rides like on a cloud. Very spacious inside with plenty of room, even for the tall folks. Quiet cabin and the standard engine has plenty of available power, yet does well in fuel economy. Never had any regrets with this car.

It is extremely comfortable, has superb handling, and has been very reliable and worry free. For a large powerful car, it gets excellent gas mileage with 25+ mpg on the highway being the norm.

The S-Class has debuted many of the company's latest innovations, including drivetrain technologies, interior features, and safety systems (such as the first seatbelt pretensioners).[2] The S-Class has ranked as the world's best-selling luxury sedan,[3] and its latest generation, the W222 S-Class, premiered in 2013. As in previous iterations, the W221 S-Class is sold in standard and long-wheelbase versions; I4, V6, V8, V12, diesel and hybrid powertrains are offered. All models built in Mexico or sold in the United States are only available in long wheelbase.

This vehicle has everything,, from the heating & air conditioning seats also pulse & vibration,, the vehicle has the most room for 5 passengers very comfortably,, and everyone traveling with there own head rest. This vehicle has beauty,, brains,, power,, and speed..!! I am in love with this vehicle.

Found the car online contacted the owner and set it an appointment for a pre purchase inspection. The car passed with flying colors. We set a price and I purchased the car. Thanks to cars.com I found the car I was looking for. Thank you!

Just a great car, well designed and performance is wonderfully. I will recommend this car to my.....

I'm a long time Mercedes owner, and my old S320 (95) finally decided to ride off into the sunset. I found a replacement in a '05 S500 4Matic that is sensational. The all wheel drive works well in the snow (albeit with a 1-2 mpg decrease in fuel efficiency). While the outside is slightly smaller, the interior room is exactly the same as my old '95, and the leather detail is extraordinary. Moving up to the 5L v8, the acceleration is sports-car like. For the price, this was a great deal.

best car i have ever owned!!! I paid 75000.00 it was a bargain 126000 miles are on the car and it rides and performes like new

Simply the best highway ride you can have for the money. The torque is phenomenal and handling is superb!

I bought a used 2005 S55 AMG for 50 grand, and let me tell you!!!! This car is absolutley amazing. This car is considered a "super-sedan" Any one, and every one who knows something about cars knows that greatness of this car!!!! Has incredably fast pick-up, and head-turning sound and looks. 500 horsepower is more than anyone will ever want....and its pretty fuel efficient too!!! It is also very reliable too! My friends has over 100,000 miles on it, and its only been in the shop for routine check-ups! NEVER HAD ANY PROBLEMS!!! And he drives it pretty insanely! The interior ergonomics are great, and the design is even better. The transmission's tiptronic mode is great, being able to switch gears via paddle-shifters, or the stick......but NO CLUTCH!!! I am pretty sure every single car I buy for now on will be this one!! NOW DO YOURSELF A HUGE FAVOR, AND GO AND BUY ONE!!!!(that is if you can even find one, considering how rare they are).
