Reviews of the 2006 Mercedes-Benz R350
-
CNET Review
The Good: The 2006 Mercedes-Benz R350 combines the best features of a luxury sedan, an SUV, and a minivan to give its occupants an incredible amount of comfortable space. MP3-CD capability and a standard MP3/iPod jack in the glove box will please contemporary music lovers, while the optional panoramic sunroof gives passengers a clear view above.
The Bad: The 2006 Mercedes-Benz R350's V-6 is worked hard by the vehicle's size, and there is little cargo room with the car in six-place configuration. As with all Mercedes-Benzes, cell phone connectivity is limited to the manufacturer's own package.
The Bottom Line: Mercedes-Benz is exploring new ground with the R-Class Grand Sports Tourer. With 4,800 pounds of heft, sport doesn't really apply to the 2006 R350, but with excellent passenger space and comfort, it's great for touring in grand style.
