2006 Mercedes-Benz CLS-Class Review:
I bought this car for my wife but i have been driving it more for now. No doubt it is one of the best Mercedes we have. Cup holders are neat but do interfere with moving the shift stick. One may spill his/her coffee. Storage space in between front seats is small .I would like to have small space to put my papers in front console. A cover to accomadate a fifth passenger/child would help in rear middle. It definitely however turns heads.

2006 Mercedes-Benz CLS-Class Review:
Only six weeks on the road, but able to praise the handling and power. The interior is very comfortable and the exterior is what makes the car. We have found it to be very powerful and most of all it hugs the road. This car gives the feeling of the SLK with the ride of the S. So far outstanding

I have been enjoying my CLS for the past 5 months. What a head turner! Great looks. Great performance. So unique!

2006 Mercedes-Benz CLS-Class Review:
Great headturner, and we love everything about it, but it has been in the repair shop 8 out of the 45 days we have owned the car. Mercedes customer service, when they answer the phone timely, has been poor and disapointing. I hope customer service gets new phone lines and Mercedes gets the bugs out of the car.

Styling and performance
Cons: How would you improve 2006 Mercedes-Benz CLS-Class?
Easier Nav interface, with voice command. BlueTooth telephone interface. The wired phone option is expensive, poor performer, and out of date on a car of this type. Come on Mercedes. Innovate. Don't follow, lead!
2006 Mercedes-Benz CLS-Class Review:
Having traded an S class for the CLS, I have to tell you I am very happy. No discernable difference in comfort in the front seats, but a big difference in the performance and handling. I have had many unsolicted compliments on the styling of the car. This one is a real winner. I just cannot figure out why I do not see more CLS 500's on the road.

Pros: What do you like about 2006 Mercedes-Benz CLS-Class?
Keyless-Go. Parktronic. Ease of operation of the Command system.
Cons: How would you improve 2006 Mercedes-Benz CLS-Class?
A place to put your sunglasses. Satellite radio should be standard instead of an option. Free service for the first 4 years.
2006 Mercedes-Benz CLS-Class Review:
I get just as much pleasure looking at this car as I do driving it. It is without a doubt, the most beautiful car on the road today. Bar none. When I am driving , it makes me feel that I'm the king of the world. The fit and finish, both interior and exterior, leave little room for improvement. It is a 4 door sports car with ample room, at least for my family and me. If you want to be the envy of every other driver on the road, buy this car.

2006 Mercedes-Benz CLS-Class Review:
5,000 miles of truly fun driving. No mechanical problems except for a faulty ESP switch. Great fit and finish. The only negative is the tight quarters in the rear. But it is a "coupe."

Outside looks & handling.
Cons: How would you improve 2006 Mercedes-Benz CLS-Class?
Redesign location of control levers behind the steering wheel.(cruse control stick and the windshield wiper stick). They interfere with each other. Improve customer relationship.
2006 Mercedes-Benz CLS-Class Review:
Pros: Head turner, good handling Cons: Quality of Lexus (LS430) far exceeds than this one. Poor controls' interface, Very bad service by Mercedes. A bit uncomfortable for longer drives.

Pros: What do you like about 2006 Mercedes-Benz CLS-Class?
Design, inside and out. Quiet, powerful engine. Size is just right for me, and love the small turning radius.
Cons: How would you improve 2006 Mercedes-Benz CLS-Class?
The key sensitive seat positioning seems to have been removed. Would like it back. No problem with memory position, but alternate driver has to manually change it. Small matter, but hard to find anything to complain about.
2006 Mercedes-Benz CLS-Class Review:
Have only had the car less than a week, but it is beautiful, silky smoothe, and couldn't be more satisfied. Silver, with dark red interior and most of the add-ons - no keyless go. Not one thing wrong with it - no adjustments needed.

Pros: What do you like about 2006 Mercedes-Benz CLS-Class?
Looks, styling, acceleration. Exterior and interior fit and finish. Car is always parked in front by valet!
Cons: How would you improve 2006 Mercedes-Benz CLS-Class?
Beige floor mats- my car has beige leather interior, though it came from factory with black mats. Less touchy steering and brakes.
2006 Mercedes-Benz CLS-Class Review:
This car drives as great as it looks. Without a doubt, the finest looking car on the road today. It turns heads everywhere I go. As a long-time BMW driver, it took me awhile to get used to very touchy brakes and Mercedes handling, softer than I like from years of BMW driving. The CLS smokes the LS430's performance, and when it comes to styling, the Lexus has no business in the same sentence as the CLS. First time I've bought a car with keyless go- a great option, as is the satellite radio. Given the small windows, I'd recommend Parktronic as well.
