2002 CL500 Reliability??

Hi guys, i used to have C320 and sold it for a Z4. Now i get bored of it and want a CL500.

What do you guys think? What should i be worried about for the CL500? What are the major breakdowns that often happen to the car? Up to how many miles the engine can live for?

Thanks in advance.

I was going to get a Z4 and got a 2002 CL. All I can say is get a warranty but it is a great car, great looker and great performance. I still might get a Z4 as a toy because I really need a drop.

man, get rid of that lil Z4 and get the CL, i was iffy about getting one and came on here, and people told me good and bad about it.

but when i got in it, i checked it out, made sure everything was cool, and took it. 1 month so far, lil tiny stuff that are not working here and their, so thats why u need a warranty. make sure u get a full one, mine has not kicked in yet(30 period u have to wait for) but soon as it does, i can update u on how the company handles my claims.

just make sure that it runs fine, and that the price your gettin is better then anyone. and if u can afford it, try and get a 55, thats my ownly regret. i didnt get a 55 but instead i got a rare color combo (white on black)



good luck, and trust me, get one
