I have the limited edition for Breast Cancer - it was the right color, had the features I wanted and a donation to Breast Cancer is a bonus! Love the performance of the car, love the look, and I'm even amazed at the size of the trunk. I'm getting about 20mpg around town and around 30mpg on long trips (all that with the way *I* drive!) The suspension is excellent. This car takes corners like you wouldn't believe. Only minor negatives are related to the additional spoilers on the front. They look great, but it's VERY easy to bump them on inclined driveways. Also, first gear (manual shift, 6 gears) is VERY low.. good for starting on slopes, otherwise pretty much useless.
The SLK 350 is an excellent car to own!

The redesigned SLK 350 has a much improved interior and exterior compared to it's predecessor. Excellent features to this car include the optional Harmon Kardon sound system, excellent safety features, stylish headlamps, heated seats, the new edition of an "air scarf" (which enables the driver to experience a comfortable temperature even with the roof down in cooler weather), and of course the retractable hardtop. The car is very fun to drive, it handles the road with ease. Execellent pick- up, with the car reaching 60 mph in under 5 seconds. There is ample trunk space compared to competitor sports cars within this price class. I highly recommend this car... it is very fun to drive!

I owned a 2003 320 SLK for the past few years. A great car, but the 350 SLK is light years ahead of it. Less side torsion for one. Handling is without question better..big upgrade. Instrumentation is spectactular by comparison. Similar in layout, but the it's like going from old school to the real deal. I wouldn't trash the 2003..it was beautiful...but this turns heads like you cannot believe...almost embarassing.
2005 Mercedes-Benz SLK350 - Pros and Cons of Old vs. New

I previously owned a 2002 Mercedes-Benz SLK230. My new 2005 SLK350 is a great improvement in many ways, mostly due to the design improvements. The exterior is much more sleek, though I'm not crazy about the back end of the car. The car is wider, and a taller person can fit in it more easily now. The cheesiness of the interior has been eradicated. The interior looks much more elegant. The unfortunates are the seats and the stereo. I don't feel the seats are as comfortable as the earlier model, and I think the stereo has a lower quality sound. However, the pros far outweigh the cons, and after having this car for nearly two months, I like it much better than my old version.

Have had car for a little over a month with no problems whatsoever. Great fun to drive with easy to use top. I live in Maine. Air scarf is a great feature which allows for top down driving even when temperatures are the the 50's. Cup holders are useless and there is not a lot of storage space or trunk space. Buy this car for its looks and because it is fun to drive, not because it is pratical, which it isn't.
