Thinking of getting slk55, thoughts or advice please
What up everyone,
Just wondering if could get some input from all of you if you think switching to an slk55 is a good or bad call. I know you guys have been keeping up with all the car news so lay it on me.

SLK 55?
The new SLK is pretty sweet. I might be the only one on this forum who thinks this way, but I would certainly rather have two SLK55s than one SL.
Actually, If I didn't have a kid I would have bought a yellow SLK32 (there was a nice one up in Frisco with less than 10K miles for $39K). Need that back seat though. To my eye, the new SLK55 is much more of an improvement relative to the SLK 32 than the C55 is to the C32. In other words, if I were shopping now, I would probably spring for a new SLK55, but would probably buy a used C32 (rather than a new C55).

Well, when I wanted a slk32, I was critizied by all my friends and family that it is a chicks car. Sorry to say, they were right. And I felt like a ***! and I think the new SLK will be an even more of a chick car. If I were you, and you had enough money to spend on a SLK55, why don't you just get a c55 or an e55? and for me, after I realized it is a total girls car, I changed my mind to the C32AMG (but I still dont have one.)
Thats my .02, not tryin to bag on you or anything, but guys are gonna be looking into your car lookin for a chick to be driving, not a guy. Good luck with your decision!
