CLS450
Finding the right fit

So I’ve been a fan of the Mercedes S class for years and finally had the nerve to step up to the big league and purchase a 2015 S550 with about 52K miles on it back in 2019. Got a great deal on it since it was a CPO. The car was really heavy but the V8 more than made up for that. However, over time I realized that my dream car wasn’t a good fit for my driving style. So the car sat for the most part of 2020. Then, mid this year I decided to find another car that was a better fit for my driving style. I landed on the CLS450. No V8, but a turbo V6 so there should be more than enough power. This car is a beauty. Very responsive steering, light with less rollover, quick, and sleek. I think I’ve finally found my keeper car. She’s a 2019 that only had 11K miles on it. Perfect color combination inside and out. Please welcome Chelsea!!!
