Used 2011 Mercedes-Benz SLS-Class

"Best bang for the buck in a sports car today!!"

"As a long term MB owner & enthusiast, when looking for a modern sports car with some potential for later appreciation, I looked at SLR coupe & RO, as well as SLS GW & RO. Drove all 4. All were great. Narrowed search to the RO's. SLS has delivered great performance , reliability, exclusivity, with great heritage. With exception of BS, all SLS variants are still depreciating. While GW doors have charisma, I felt RO was better car. Bought low milage RO with desired options ! year ago & have never looked back! Have used rarely as DD, often on weekends. Great attention getter at local car shows, fabulous for rallies. I have no interest in track, Have found it steady as a rock at 150+ MPH. Will own for 10= years!!"

"Future classic and a great updating of the 300 SL"

"I purchased the car used from a dealership. It had one previous owner and 21,000 miles. I drive it about 1,000 a year inasmuch as it is not my daily driver. The gullwing doors was the selling feature for me. Every time I fill the gas tank I get stares and inquiries as to what kind of Mercedes it is. It rides great and has fabulous acceleration. The sound system is great, especially with the upgraded system. Climate control is very good and the seats are extremely comfortable. Service costs are typical M-B, but not excessive. I was even surprised that the insurance costs were moderate (State Farm). I would highly recommend this car to anyone who wants to own a future classic and who loves the 300 SL, but who doesn't have a spare $1.5 million laying around."

"My daily driver, yet one of the most exotic & rare"

"We own both the coupe and roadster. The roadster is my wife's only car and the coupe is mine. The dealer offered us a 7 year bumper to bumper warrantee for an extra $3500, so my future costs are fixed. They sound great, are of typical german quality, and both hold a set of golf clubs in the trunk. We are car people so we love the conversations these cars create. Our choice was over the Bentley, Lambo, Aston,Audi R8 V10 & Ferrari ... and while a couple came close, this cleary was the best built in terms of daily usability and on-going maintenance (although from a maintenance perspective, the Audi tied). Love the cars. Great purchases. (By the way, I have 11,000 on the Gullwing and my wife has 3800 miles on the roadster. One final thing ... my wife is 70 and 5'2" and has no trouble reaching the gull wing door. She brings it down as she gets in."
