Used 2009 Mercedes-Benz SLK-Class Consumer Reviews
AMG Sport Package
So I test drove both base model 280 and 350, and 350 with AMG sports pkg. The $4,000 option is well worth it for the looks and the improved handling of the car. It makes the SLK go from a luxury touring convertible to a real hard core sports car. Cornering ability with the lowered and stiffer suspension makes this a true competitor to Porsche Boxter/S. This car wins on styling, I get envious looks from not only Boxster owner, but 911 owners as well, I suppose a fully loaded SLK is pretty close to the price range of the 911. But you get the fun hardtop convertible.
A star on every sense!
My 3rd SLK. 2005 350, 2007 280, 2007 SLK 55 AMG. What a ride! MB didn't forget a thing. Can't get into the newer styles. The McLaren look is gorgeous. Terrific performance and style.

My dream car
I have dreamed about owning an SLK since the first time I saw one. I have not been disappointed. The car drives very well. It is glued to the road but the ride is not harsh at all. My car is the 350 6 cylinder which supplies plenty of power but still gets pretty good gas mileage. The brakes are awesome. The top mechanism performs flawlessly. The fit and finish were first rate. The only problem that have had was that the display for the radio/cd player stopped working. The dealer fixed the problem during the routine 1000-3000 mile checkup.
There is NO faster car
I am not a professional driver, but I do highly doubt the 0-60 speeds listed as this car is a Wolf in Sheeps Clothing that I honestly don't know of many vehicles on the road-at least that are common, that can touch it. 0 to 60 is under 4 seconds on the 6 Cyl SLK..easy! It's a Jet Engine basically pushing something slightly bigger than a bathtub ..think about it. However, it's a very cool James Bond "Intercepter Speed Capable" Transformer Convertable to Hard Top- in Seconds! You automatically feel like your in in a jet fighter when you sit in this rocket, and when your at a red light and hit a button that transforms into an equally hot looking convertible-well that alone is worth looking around and seeing all the heads turn in amazement before the light hits green alone. If you need to feel alive one last time...get this car !

MBZ SLK 55 AMG
A bargain for what you get, as compared to others in it's class. Great engine power, speed and handling abilities. Fun to drive on the open road and in town. Great if you enjoy top-down motoring. Simply a fun and powerful hot-rod!
