I am looking for an SL55 to keep my SLK32 company and was wondering about the vented massage seats and the suspension. What are the seats like and are they worth the bother? Also what suspension options were there on the 55.

Ive got the seats in my CLS55 (and the engine) and they dont make much odds in vent mode unless your driving in your thong eek

The massage bit is a novelty but makes no odds however the dynamic bolster activity of the seats is superb - not sure if SL`s have that but if they do its a strong thumbs up (for the look of horror on your missus face the first time it grabs her)

Hi both my cars have the vented massage seats and the only problems have been the air tubes under the seats needing replacing, not a big job.
On the SL 55 there no suspension options when new.
