2008 Mercedes-Benz GL-Class

Pros: Big-Grin Grill that Will Match Your Own

Cons: Hydroplanes Like a Banshee

The Bottom Line: If you don't mind the Gangsta look, a better car than the GL450's dowdy, yesteryear styling. With this car, in every way, too much is never enough.

Pros: Acceleration, comfort, handling, elegant styling, solid feel, simple yet elegant controls.

Cons: small side mirrors, reflection of circular air ducts on side glass is distracting.
