| 2001 | 2dr Coupe turbocharged 415hp 3.6L H6 5-speed shiftable automatic AWD |
expensive to buy but cheap to own and run |
| 2001 | 2dr Coupe 300-horsepower 3.4L H6 6-speed manual RWD |

What Our Members Are Saying about the Price of the Mercedes-Benz GL-Class
| Price of the Mercedes-Benz GL-Class: Cons | ||
| Year | Body/Powertrain | Comment |
| 2010 | 4dr SUV turbocharged 210hp 3.0L V6 Diesel 7-speed shiftable automatic AWD |
For $80,000 I expect more from a vehicle. |
| 2010 | 4dr SUV 335-horsepower 4.7L V8 7-speed shiftable automatic AWD |
$1100 per month. Lots of other cars that are almost as nice and much cheaper. |
| 2008 | 4dr SUV 335-horsepower 4.7L V8 7-speed shiftable automatic AWD |
With options, it can get pricey. |
| 2008 | 4dr SUV turbocharged 215hp 3.0L V6 Diesel 7-speed shiftable automatic AWD |
The price on this car is a tough pill to swallow for working class people. If it were not for a great trade-in, I probably could not justify the price. |
