2011 Mercedes-Benz CL-Class Review

The 2011 Mercedes-Benz CL550 is stunning — both to look at and to drive — in a way not many cars are.

The CL550 is plenty quick, though it's not at the top of the CL-Class heap in terms of power. Nor is it practical, economical or subtle; it's simply a gorgeous automobile for people who can afford to not care about such things — or its $113,000-plus starting price.
