It features, such as the super-supportive seats, are enticing. Other than a slight hesitation when starting off and downshifting, the powertrain produces quick and energetic responses. Like all Mercedes-Benz models, has a heavy feel, but it's far less bothersome in this
car. Highly stable on the road. It clings securely to the pavement and has excellent steering-wheel feel and appropriate effort. All told, it's more boulevard cruiser than hard-core sports car, and it delivers outstanding ride
comfort. The controls range from cryptic to ambiguous. Mercedes-Benz's navigation system is next to useless - the small screen becomes almost invisible in daylight. Hooded, finely calibrated gauges, on the other hand, are reasonably easy to read. Trunk space is skimpy due to intrusion from the retractable hardtop. Its five-speed-automatic transmission has SpeedShift buttons on the steering wheel. Racing-derived brakes are installed, and other components have been adapted to work with the higher engine output. |
