New ML Arrives Early in Newport Beach
1 - 2 of 2 Posts
Finally test drove a '06 Obsidian Black ML 350 today.
Very quiet and the steering is very tight. Didn't really care for the shifter on the column. MAJOR DISLIKE is the unibody. Does not have a suv like feel to it anymore. Totally handles and drives like a car. To compare it to my '99 I would say they are two totally different vehicles. Definetly like the first generation ML alot better. Wish the new one had more of a truck feel to it !!!!!
