2002 CLK320
I bought my CLK320 at San Francisco MB on Van Ness and Geary.

Decent experience. First salesperson that met us was a snob, didn't seem too interested in waiting on us while we toured their cars and models. He later ditched us because "a client just came back" and another salesperson Joe helped us.

My inlaws had bought 3 MBs from Francis there, and we were looking for him but he was not in at that time. Francis is actually a top seller there, very to the point, but a good salesperson.

I would definately pull some comparative numbers off carsdirect.com for the car and options you want before going in as I had used that as a starting point for price.

San Francisco MB also has 2 different locations for service/parts which is helpful as well.

Hope that helps and goodluck


Autobahn in Redwood "City" Shores probably has the widest selection though.

I've been to the one in San Francisco, Belmont and the one in Cupertino and I've got to say that the one in Cupertino is the better of the three. San Francisco's service workers scratched my car and washed it when I requested not to. Plus they have no waiting room or free drinks/food. The one in Belmont is OK, but nothing special. The one in Cupertino sometimes does out of warantee work for free and doesn't trip off aftermarket products done to your car. (I've been to each at least 3 times)

Who's your contact at Cupertino? By the way I won't recommend Autobahn for service but for parts definitely cool!
