Owner reviews is the best review that you will ever get. I've own
It has a great ride. Very comfortable seating. Gas mileage is great for a luxury sedan. Very expensive to repair. Tires are very expensive. You can't go wrong with a high line Mercedes Benz. Shade system is awesome. Very reliable vehicle. I have never had such a comfortable riding vehicle.

I think the most important things others should know about my car is my car is very strong.
I love my Mercedes very much. My car is very comfortable, safe, strong. When I drive my car I enjoy the driving.

My Mercedes! My friend on the highways and byways of an urban city.
My Mercedes-Benz s550 (white) is a strong and heavy car--very important when driving in an area like Miami-dade county in Florida. I feel safe if someone should hit me with their car. My year is 2009 and does not have the upgrades in technology available with today's models. I might consider buying a newer model to take advantage of that technology.

Great Performance Car! Reliable!
I love the car, it has been pretty reliable but needs a lot of routine maintenance which gets expensive.

Mercedes Benz s class is a classy looking car with a huge back seat area
Problem with radio where is stopped working. Problem with electronic braking system and parking brake where the ebs just went off and parking brake goes on by itself. Problem with ball bearing in front left tire that was fixed and happen a second time

Airmatic suspension sucks
The worst car that I have ever owned.....others can say whatever they want. Wait until one day, when the airmatic suspension goes out, you will know what I mean. I just went thru the experience, it is not pretty.....remember, don’t say that you were not warned about this.
