Pricing for new SLK and leasing?
What numbers are you guys seeing? I'm looking now at a lease on a 2012 SLK 350 and haven't gotten the low down from my dealer yet. Just wondering what if any you are getting off MSRP and what I might expect. By the way I test drove a black/black SLK 350 and was very impressed with the power, shifting etc. Love that you can select shifting modes of sport, economy or manual but disappointed that you can't select or change the suspension. The ride is great but when negotiating sharp curves at high speeds, the car is sloppy.
Anyone else have similar experiences, comments?
Thanks

Thanks. I'm waiting to see pricing in the SLK 250. I'm told they will be available in the states in March. I really want the manual trans.

As to teh 250, they tell me the official release in 3/7/2012 but they are built and in Germany ready to be be shipped to the US. Dealer *thinks* they might be released earlier.

I just drove a 250 today. Most of the sales people were surprised that the car was at the dealer. It was surprisingly peppy but typical turbo lag low revs and kicked in with high revs. I really like the 350 better. The 250 pricing starts at $42K
