A brief look on parkers and autotrader for the stats would suggest very little price difference between equivalently aged 350z and SLK 350. Also the weight difference is less than an average sized passenger. Doesnt seem very significant the 0-60 is 0.4 seconds different...
one a Mercedes interior.
Firstly, a friend said they all seem to be driven by middle aged women, and afterwards every single example I spotted was being driven by a middle aged woman.
Also find the comments RE female/hairdresser quite funny when the SLK is renowned for getting similar remarks.
Never been inside an R171 then. It's fairly terrible.
Sounds like you’re just posting this thread to get people to agree with you so you can justify the purchase?
Just go and drive one, if you like it then buy it.

You can get a 10 plate for under 8k too.
Throw me soke other 300bhp or close to rwd cars for cheaper
Well 0.4s at 5.5s to 60 is almost 10%. Also the DE HR's are known to drink oil.
Plus one has a nissan interior and one a Mercedes interior. And the 7 speed auto option in the MB is also better than the Nissan equivalent. Just tips the scales towards the mb.
The SLK is properly rubbish, I test drove one the same day as a Z4 of the same vintage it was dreadful.
It depends what you are expecting. If you are after a proper sports car then yea they are a bit sloppy as it's compromised to make it a comfortable cruiser. More engaging than the TT, but that isn't saying much.
It was the 'budget' 2 seater Merc sports offering. Don't forget that when new the SL cars were £60k-£100k and that was 10 years ago. The SLK was in the £30-£45k market.I never understood the SLK in that respect as it didn't really fit in.
Nice, what next? Complete the hair dresser salon with a mr2 (mk3) and an mx5?
Joking of course but how come you sold the slk?
