2006 Mercedes-Benz CLS500C was a four-door coupe convertible that was introduced as the first of its kind. It was based on the E-Class sedan, but it featured a more stylish design, a more luxurious interior, and a more powerful engine.
The CLS500C was powered by a 5.0-liter V8 engine that produced 382 horsepower and 354 pound-feet of torque. This engine was paired with a seven-speed automatic transmission and rear-wheel drive. The CLS500C could accelerate from 0 to 60 mph in 5.6 seconds.
The front seats were supportive and offered plenty of headroom and legroom. The rear seats were also spacious and comfortable, but the headroom was limited due to the sloping roofline. The CLS500C had a cargo capacity of 10.5 cubic feet with the top up and 7.3 cubic feet with the top down.
