What owners say
"Overall, owners are very pleased with the 2004 Mercedes-Benz CLK, highlighting its luxurious feel, elegant design, and strong performance. Many drivers enjoy the vehicle's quick acceleration and comfortable ride. However, there are concerns about the high cost of repairs if something goes wrong, which some find daunting. Despite this, the CLK is recommended for its driving experience and timeless styling."
Great & reliable car great on gas as well as low maintenance
April 3, 2024The CLK offers a great mix of timeless, elegant design, luxury and performance. The highlight of the car is the column-less design, high quality leather and wood in the interior design, and good overall performance in terms of quick acceleration (about 6 seconds to 60 mph) and handling. Moreover, I have not have a single problem with the car since I purchased it and the only cost to-date was to replace the tires and brakes after 5 years of use. Sure there is more performance oriented cars like the BMW 335i, the BMW M3 and the Audi S5. However, the BMW 3-series simply cannot match the quality, comfort and design from the CLK. Audi can but it took them many years to catch up with the A5 / S5 and their brand equity as a driver of resale value is still unknown in the U.S.
July 17, 2009I have driven a lot of cars, and I will say hands down it is the best car I have ever driven. I miss this car so much i dream of it at nite. Even though the 550 has replaced the 500, I would buy a 500 used because I became so connected with handling of this acheivement of German engineering.

November 15, 2008The 2004 CLK320 I own performs without any flaws. It has two settings one for comfort, the other for performance and you can tell the difference between the two. Its a more robust vehicle than the 2003 C230K I had previously. I think its styling is timeless, having generally straight lines devoid of any trendy styling gimmicks. Its a comfortable car to drive with a sporty side that you can use when needed. I would recommend this vehicle to anyone in the market for a couple from an upscale marquee.
August 5, 2008Best car I have owned V6 - cheap on gas Great acceleration - sleek design All the bells and whistles Sun roof - distronic - Black leather interior - GPS - Sun shade in back - Great rims Simply loaded etc ... Fun car to drive in Southern California
January 24, 2011From day 1 I felt this was the car for me. It handles wonderfully in the Colorado Mountains. The 5.0 Liter V8 has plenty of power when you ask for it. Handling is precise and quick. Still looks as good as the new ones. Classic lines. An AMG pkg. would make it perfect if I had the bucks. But for the money spent, I would be hard pressed to find anythingt on the market that satifies as well.
March 16, 2009The car is definitely fun to drive, responsive and quick. I think I have added to the appearance both interior and exterior by the few mods I have done. Lorenzo Chrome wheels, Panasonic LCD/DVD/NAVI/IPod/Sirius, Kicker Solobaric Subwoofer. The biggest drawback is the cost of ownership, both of which should be expected when driving a Benz and a V8.
April 8, 2010found the car has great performance classic Mercedes style However when something goes wrong and it will very expensive to repair.
March 16, 2020very nice love this car to death i actually bought used so good price for it, traded in my other car though and paid off rest, good price and very exelent car runs fast eventhough its a V6 and still has a luxirous ride no probs with the car so far
