Used 2005 Mercedes-Benz SLK-Class SLK55 AMG Consumer Reviews
Excellent AMG
Test drove 2005 Vette - no comparision. Benz is much better build and trim level. Great exhaust note. Cannot compare SLK 350 to 55, have driven both. Not one complaint about this car. Best car I ever owned. Paid $ 1,000 over MSRP & waited 8 weeks for car. I would do it in a heartbeat all over again. Fuel Economy scored 9, but is what you expect from 355+ hp, AMG is thirsty.
My dream car!!
We are fighting over who gets to drive this car every day. I think we are going to have to buy another one. We truly love this car. It's the best of both worlds, a sports car with luxury and class. It gets more looks driving down the road than our Corvette. You owe it to yourself to drive one if you are even considering a roadster.

Great car
I have owned 3 Porsches, and a Jag XKR and this by far beats them all. When you consider price, styling, performance, and fun to drive I think this is the most balanced auto Mercedes- AMG makes.
Topless Performer
This car offers outstanding performance with great looks. It can serve as your Summer car - top down, 0- 60 sprints in 4.8 seconds - or daily driver averaging 20-22 MPG. The sport seats and interior are superb. The AMG exterior styling is masculine but not over the top. Fuel economy is an "8" when compared against other V8 automobiles in this performance range - you want 30 MPG buy a Civic. Options: Iridium Silver, Premium 3 Package, Lighting package, Heating Package, Sadachiba multipiece wheels, illuminated door sills and clear front stone and chip guard.
Awesome perfection!
The 2005 Mercedes-Benz SLK55 is not a hairdresser's car by any means. Make sure that you order this car with the "airscarf" feature allowing one to retract the hard top in colder weather. This will reveal the symphonic sound of the normally aspirated 8-cylinder engine. The hand-built engine (0-60 in four and a half seconds), and other AMG goodies make this car worth the $15,000 surcharge over the SLK350. The car is standard Mercedes fare, quiet and vault-like. Its only problem is, AMG doesn't make a standard transmission.
