The body style, motor and 722.9 7G tonic transmission
Things to worry about is the Airmatic suspension, the compressor, and rear trailing arms oh and last but not least the leather seats aren’t as tuff as one would expect them too be especially sense it’s a Mercedes I ran into to these problems with more than 5 of them so I buy them like that for less than repair them

Great car! Fast and reliable
The 2008 cls series of the Mercedes Benz is a very reliable car, the performance on it is amazing, the turns are so sharp. It kind of feels like you are driving a spaceship! The seats are extremely comfortable and cam set the heat and air in the seats. You would not regret purchasing or leasing this car.
