Some electrical nagging issues with that ride, man. Get a warranty if you can.

It's a 2005, only 8,000 miles. It's M-B certified so warrantied until 2011 plus 100,000 miles. M-B normally gives you 4/50K like BMW. They're asking asking $66K. I'm still thinking about it.

MB warranties are not like they used to be. You will have to pay for everything. We have a 2004 S430. And it is very expensive, eventhough it is under warranty. $500 for brake pads. $400-$500 for oil changes. Plus everything is falling apart on the car. Don't let exterior looks fool you. Do some more research. My $0.02.

I agree with Driver, my buddy's dad works for Dam/Crys.... He told me one day never to buy anything MB. He say's they all have bad elec. problems and they share same parts as Crys..... There not what they used to be. Now thats what he said, I've never owned a MB, but from what he has told me and he even works for the company, I'd say he knows a little more then me. Anyway for that kind of money or a little more, why don't you pick up a 6 series??? Now that's "HOT"..... Just my opinnion... GOOD LUCK!!!

Yea get a used 6... a much better idea.

The CL is a very dated car... From styling, to the quality of its interior + electrics...
