Exterior styling

Excellent design and paint finish and finish durability. Solid feel and sound, especially when closing the doors.

Interior styling

High quality components used thru out interior, ie. leather, hardware and placement of instruments. Very functional interior.

Powertrain performance

Outstanding !!

Safety & braking

Excellent stopping ability.

Handling

Steering is fantastic. Specifically, essentiaal no play ie steering wheel. I could drive any speed, without holding the wheel....stability is great. Turning circle is small and manuvering very quick.

Price or payments

In light of the prices for all cars today, you get what you pay for and the Mercedes offers only the best. They are competitive. Only problem is high cost of repairs/maintenance. Labor costs.
