2001 Mercedes-Benz SL-Class Reviews, Pricing & Specs
What owners say
"Overall, owners appreciate the solid build quality and enjoyable driving experience of the 2001 Mercedes-Benz SL-Class. Many drivers are impressed with its performance, handling, and engine. However, there are concerns about the hydraulic system for the tops, as well as some issues with brakes and wear on interior trims. Some owners noted that while the car can perform exceptionally, there are a few mechanical problems to watch out for."
The solid build quality of the vehicle is exceptional. I think the car is great value.
January 4, 2021Car was represented as clean and shows as new, interior was worn and aged, exterior car had been damaged front with damage poorly repaired, surface rust on soft top and in engine compartment
August 10, 2021Car is absolutely fantastic! Purchased the car with only 5k and it did need repair. Probably from sitting was the cause of the repairs. The only down fall is the braking performance. Should have had crossed drilled front rotors. Car too heavy for brakes installed.

July 5, 2008One of the finest automobiles ever built! Car handles awesome even at speeds above 130 MPH. Has two tops, convertible and hard top. Interior noise is non-existent with hard top and quieter than most hard top vehicles with the soft top up.
January 15, 2015Good engine; good transmission; extremely poor hydraulics that operate the tops. Lots of interior trim pieces no longer available.
