Default Mercedes CL55 and CL65

Looking at 03-05 models wondering how reliable they are? Any major issues?

I have a 07 CLS 63 AMG and love it, love it so much that I just bought my wife a 06 SL55 AMG. These cars rock.

Electrical stuff has plagued all the CL models those years. Stupid stuff like window motors, locks etc. My neighbor bought a 04 CL500 new and said it was the worst MB he had ever owned (6 or 7 in a row now). Mechanically the car ran fine but the glitches were annoying.

The CL65's were almost 200K new and have gotten really cheap on ebay. The CL55 was more common and almost as fast, with a few Renntech mods it can run with the bigger 65 too!

Would that interest you ?
