Silver Bullet!

2002 Mercedes-Benz SLK-Class SLK32 AMG 2dr Convertible (3.2L 6cyl S/C 5A)

Great acceleration. Hard top security. Nimble size. Handsome design. Decent fuel economy. The SLK32 meets my criteria for a fun and (somewhat) practical sports car. It may not have the handling of a Porsche C4S nor speed of a TVR but for everyday driving it more than keeps your heart racing. Stomping on the accelerator at 60 mph results in instant torque and before you know it -- triple digits!

Fun Car , but problems

I had mine special ordered with manual transmission and xenon head lights. The car is a lot of fun to drive, accelerates well and corners extremely well. About 3 months into driving the car, the transmission fluid leaked causing the car to suddenly jerk forward 4 feet , fortunately no one was injured. Now, after 8000 miles the airconditioning fan gave out and need another trip to the dealer!

I have now had this car two years. Very few issues, solid car with the hard top convertable up or down. Blast to drive, plenty of power in the SLK320.

Wonderful Hardtop

You can surprise everyone with the vario hardtop which is rarely seen. The little SLK makes a great stablemate with any cars you could have. 8.7 cb.ft. trunk gives you twice as much space as Z3 could offer. This SLK is the way to go! If I had more money, I would go for the SLK32 AMG!

This is a great car overall... It's gets plenty of attention & looks great.. It is also fun to drive, especially in te Spring/Summer with the hardtop down.
