Mercedes Benz SLK Class

 ABOUT:

The SLK is a compact roadster manufactured by Mercedes-Benz in three generations; R170 launched in 1996, the R171 in 2004 and R172 in 2011.As one of the first modern retractable hardtop convertibles, the SLK followed the 1995 Mitsubishi 3000GT Spyder and preceded other retractable hardtops such as the Peugeot 206cc, Lexus SC, Pontiac G6 and the Chrysler Sebring. The SLK Vario-roof was first shown on the SLK II concept car at the 1994 Paris Motor Show. The car went on sale two years later in Europe, and in 1997 in the US. The SLK is built in Bremen, Germany.The current third-generation SLK is intended as a more serious sports car, featuring a dramatic design inspired by the SLS AMG, and a more capable suspension. As a convertible that provides good all-season performance along with luxury and prestige, we think a new or used Mercedes-Benz SLK is a solid choice.The latest Mercedes-Benz SLK-Class luxury roadster was fully redesigned for 2012. It's available in SLK250 and SLK350 variants. The SLK250 features a turbocharged 1.8-liter four-cylinder that produces 201 horsepower, while the SLK350's 3.5-liter V6 produces 302 hp. The SLK250 can be matched with a six-speed manual or a seven-speed automatic transmission, while the SLK350 gets only the auto.Along with the standard retractable metal roof, a sun-reflecting panoramic glass roof option is also available, as is a "Magic Sky Control" roof that features glass that can be tinted dark with a flick of a switch. With either of these roofs deployed, the SLK's cabin is as quiet as you'll find in any convertible..The second-generation SLK was produced from 2005-'11. Initially, Mercedes offered it in SLK350 and SLK55 AMG trims. The SLK350 had a 268-hp V6 with a standard six-speed manual transmission or a seven-speed automatic, while the SLK55 AMG boasted a beefy 355-hp 5.4-liter V8 that came only with the seven-speed auto. The SLK55's final year was 2010, though it is likely to return later in 2012.The second-generation SLK was produced from 2005-'11. Initially, Mercedes offered it in SLK350 and SLK55 AMG trims.

The SLK32 AMG brought 349 hp to the party by way of a supercharged 3.2-liter V6. Along with the power infusion, handsome double-spoke 17-inch wheels with performance tires were fitted, along with a massaged suspension, full ground effects and a discreet rear spoiler.
