This is such a fun car. I was worried about trunk space that hasn't been a problem. I travel a lot and usually need to carry a fair sized bag and a computer. If you get a fairly flat bag it's no problem.

The SLK320 is a beautifully sculpted vehicle and I would have bought it on that alone. Handling and performance are excellent for the price. Comfort and space is excellent for my 6'1" height.

This car turns heads and turns well. It is very quiet with the top up, which everyone comments on. A lot of my friends have BMW,Honda, with cloth tops. They all say they wish they had bought a SLK. Handles, corners, extremly well. Best thing I bought for myself!

I have had my SLK for 15 months - first 6 uneventful. Likes: Love the body style and the retractable hardtop. Little road noise. Car handles well and is relatively comfortable - even on trips for several hours. Dislikes: I now live at the Mercedes service department. Have had bad alternator, two separate tail light failures, leather flakes off door handles and center console, repairs on the roof and numerous other minor problems. All of these have been repaired under warranty - so just the inconvenience. Overall, I am very disappointed with the quality of this car. I expected more from Mercedes and will not be a repeat customer.
