2012 Mercedes-Benz SL-Class Review Summaries

What reviewers liked most about the Mercedes-Benz SL-Class:

The lack of body roll while cornering hard in the new SL is eerie, especially when you realize it's a computer managing the lean, not conventional anti-roll bars. But it works very well, delivering a comfortably compliant ride and remarkably composed cornering, all complemented by a new slightly quicker steering rack.

-- Car and Driver

Seductive style, quick-folding retractable hardtop, powerful V8 and V12 engines, impressive handling doesn't come at the detriment of ride quality.

-- Edmunds.com

Today we have the safest, quickest, flattest-handling and prettiest SL-Class cars in half a century.

What reviewers liked least about the Mercedes-Benz SL-Class:

It is heavy for a "sports car," fussy audio and navigation controls, and limited cargo capacity.
