Bought my SLK 350 with 105k on it. Outside of normal road rash and worn tires it was in great condition. Took it to the mechanic who tested EVERYTHING and gave it a A+. First road trip from Tucson to Durango Colorado thru the Million Dollar mountain roadway was a BLAST!! The cars performance was amazing, handled the hair pins like it was on a rail and the performance at altitude was impeccable. The retractable hard top was a bonus when the weather turned sour. I added a wind screen behind the seats to cut down on the backdraft when the top is down, big improvement, an addition I would advise for everyone with this car. BIG A+ for this car, rides smooth, great sound from the Harman/Kardin 8 speaker sound system, great performance from the 3.5L V6, handles like dream. Just so fun to drive!!

The 350SLK is an absolute dream from the retractable roof, speed when you need it, a quiet ride, unbelievable sound system, and solid handling. And it's beautiful to look at. It could use more lockable space and the cup holders are in a strange spot, but all other amenities more than make up for the inconvenience.

This is A true sports car,I got the SLK 350 up to highway speeds so quickly,I'd only gone through A couple of the six manual gear,I could have easily kept going,IT Just didn't feel as if the car was traveling that fast.
A fun car to drive

This is a sporty upscale convertible which with the hardtop up acts like a sedan. Never short on power, it handles like a true sports car. Cargo space slim with top down but can accommodate a couple of small suit cases with the top up.
A great new model worth every penny

Although I have only had the car for two months, it is a fantastic sports car. Although my previous car, the BMW M Roadster (which I loved) may have had a little more power, this car is better built, (finally no squeaks) has more great features and is an all around great ride. I loved my M but this is an incredible car, and the standard 6 speed is the best. It turns heads everywhere I go due to the great new design, and blows away most other cars on the highway. This is truly the best new car on the road, and Mercedes has hit a home run. It's not the Barbie doll car anymore.

I never thought I'd be saying Mercedes-Benz and sportscar in the same sentence. From the incredible power and torque of the engine, to the handing and the stop on a dime brakes, this car is a blast to drive. It's modern styling and comfort features set it appart from the competition
Awesome - You owe it to yourself

The car is one exceptional piece of automotive excellence. Aside from the obvious stunning looks , both exterior and interior, this is a driver's car. I find myself looking for longer ways to reach my destination. Very powerful motor, smooth transmission -it rockets once you put your foot on pedal. The Harmon Kardon Sound system , along with Sirius satellite radio is magnificent and sounds great. The hard top dropping into the trunk in under 20 seconds is something to watch. The comfort package is worth it. The air scarf is ingenious. When everything is said and done - this is truly a fun car to drive and the aesthetic appeal from both men and women is very evident. Great Car !

Since I was a teenager working at a local Mercedes dealer in NY, I promised myself that one day I would walk in and buy one. Well my dream became reality a few weeks ago when I took delivery of my new 350SLK. It is visually stunning and more fun to drive then any car I have ever owned. The rush of the wind with the top down and the Florida sun shining down is fantastic.
Now, they got it right!

Mercedes finally made over the SLK into a true sports car. Great pickup power, smooth new 7 speed automatic overpowers the stick! More roomy than the former design. Exterior looks are outstanding. Picked mine up in Europe and loved its performance on the Autobahn. SL fans, try this one for size and pocket $40,000!
Pure joy to drive.

MB has a hit with the SLK. It is a drop-dead gorgeous roadster that continues to draw stares from all types. Last weekend, two Harley riders gave us a thumbs-up and mouthed "nice car" as we passed. The quality is outstanding, both interior fit & finish, and exterior paint & wheels. With the top up, the interior is as quiet as any car that I have owned. The trunk size is reasonable... two medium duffle bags and a 12 pack cooler provide plenty of room for a weekend getaway. Mileage is 19 city & 24-25 hi-way. Sometimes we think that we spent too much for this "mid-life toy" but then we take it for a quick drive and immediately change our minds. This car is a true joy.
