Reviews of the 2009 Mercedes-Benz CL550

CNET Review
The Good: An impressive body design and cool features such as night vision and massage seats make the 2009 Mercedes-Benz CL550 an impressive tech car. Blind-spot detection is a great new feature, as is the all-wheel-drive system.
The Bad: The add-on iPod kit is poor, at best, while the list of compatible Bluetooth phones is short. Although it shows traffic on the navigation system, there is no dynamic detour feature.
The Bottom Line: The 2009 Mercedes-Benz CL550 impresses with plenty of gee-whiz features while offering a more than comfortable ride, but some of its core cabin tech is subpar.
