2003 SL 500 warranty
Hello,
Would you guys consider buying a 03 SL 500? Consumer reports called it the most unreliable car in 2003. Also can you recommend a good warranty for this car if the factory warranty has expired.
thanks

I just bought one with 62,000 on it. I am very impressed with the vehicle but my wife and I are going to buy the extended warranty. Though at 5 years old and 62k I would think a lot of the little gotcha's have already been fixed.
Best of luck, so far this automobile is very impressive and wife loves it so I got a bonus....lol

I bought an 2003 SL500 last August and absolutely LOVE it. Best car i have ever owned! I bought a GE full warranty with it and am glad I did, I had a few small problems, covered by the warranty, like a motor in the power roof, tire pressure monitors and a burned out wiring harness. Well worth it, $50 deductible. Great car, great warranty.

I agree with everyone that it is a very reliable car. I bought my car 4 months ago from a MB dealer and was a CPO car so it came with a 1yr. 0 deductable through MB. I purchased 2 more yrs as well through MB. I had the same concerns as you do, but when you drive one you will be hooked. Good luck on on decision.

I'm with the OP - would love to buy a 03 Sl500 but scared of the impending repairs. I have no problem buying an extended warranty for peace of mind, but what companies are trustworthy? I've been searching this forum and found - 1sourceautowarranty and warrantydirect.
I've reading the fine print on warrantydirect but not getting a warm/fuzzy feeling from the electronics section. What if there are 'magical' parts not listed that fail. Still doing research and hoping I can find answers.
