Anyone have a 00-03 mercedes-benz CL-Class?

[ztik]

If so, how do you like it?

How does it handle when you are in the 140mph+ speed range?

Ive been looking into getting one of these for a while now (CL600 sport). I think the time has come.

Why not go buy a Porsche!

Take the Carrera 4S: all-wheel drive, 320HP, 0-60 mph in 5 sec.

I want a luxury ride and a sports car in one.
Stock they are around 300 hp, so after I do mods. I should be well above 320hp

Not everything has to do with power...found that out last night - first ride in a really nice Benz. Before I was all for the QM and 0-60 times...but after riding in that, what a plesaure.

It depends on what you want of course!

Posrches are good for their sport and sexy look.

Benz are top notch for luxury.

But you may also have a look at BMWs M5

almost, but Im sure on daily driving, ie not pushing it at 6-8K RPM it's like a V8 i guess..

I just picked up 2003 CL55 two weeks ago, that car is a monster... smooth drive, and lots of horses (495 to be exact).

I've heard that they are also going to be coming out with a convertible for CL series, should be nice ;-)

Is that little or a lot?

When I fill in a Benz ('03 E500) tank it costs 70+ ?

Benzito......the only way to go if not in a truck

What a joke
Its over $50 to fill up my hummer

If you can afford the ride, the gas bill shouldnt be a problem for you

[Mr.Soze]

Awesome car, no fucking doubt about that.
I have a Cl 600, 2000 modell ("only" 367 hp)

No problems when your at 140mph at all.
I just love it when all 12 cylinders kick in for full.
Only thing is that mine have a electronic block at 250km/h (155mph)

There's only two types of cars,
New Mercedes, and old Mercedes

how many km's can your hummer go on the full gas tank (60 litre in side let's say ) ?

200km ?

500km ?

Mr Soze, what kind of gas milage do you get on it?

[siccmade]

I'm in Europe, and we use a different measuring unit
then you do in the us, but I tried converting it a bit,

For city driving it uses around 2.1-1.8 liters per 10km
(1 gallon per 11,67 miles)
For long trips, it uses about 1.5-1.4 liters per 10km
(1 gallon per 15,6 miles)

You can probaly get it lower if you drive more economical.
But it's the last thing I think about.

My only goes on 6 cylinders when it doesn't need more power,
probaly saves some gas.

Damn nice car Mr Soze!
