It is safe!!! And reliable. Fun to drive. And a looker.

I love the ride! I love the breeze in my hair when the top is down. I dislike the expensive upkeep! The vehicle is nice overall.

Power Class and Satisfaction.

I have had 77 cars in my lifetime and my SL55 is my all time favorite car.

Interesting detail is the convertible top. It disappears down into the trunk.

My vehicle performs great. It is most responsive on curves and whenever I find a challenging situation I am able to avoid accidents. The Mercedes convertible is fun and always returns to it is proper space. It is a small car but most comfortable. My husband is 6'3 and I am 5'7. We fit fine with room to spare. Repairs are costly at times but repairs are not frequent so this is a positive. The engine is quick and responsive. I love my car.

It has a powerful yet economical diesel engine.

Good power from diesel engine and auto transmission combination. Good mileage on long trips and short trips alike. Expensive repairs when they are needed.
