i did get it used it is a 06 black on black with 22.000 mi. i had to sell the c43 i dont have the room for a 3rd car. it had 97,000 on it and i hate to spend the time working on it and not get paid for doing it. the C55 and SLK55 are still under starmark. so if something goes wrong i can fix it my salf and get paid for doing it 
the slk55 is crazy fast and has a good noise when the top is down. i will miss the c43 it was my first amg and now i have #3. i will take some pic at some point.

I almost bought an SLK350 the other day if that counts
Seriously though, nice choice. People call them girly hairdresser cars but I really have liked the last couple of generations, esp the '55.

The SLK is one of those cars that I can't get into unless it's the AMG version, which transforms it into this crazy little muscle roadster. They look quite mean on the road, especially with the top up. I just hate that gonzo noise, though.
OP, enjoy your new car!

Make sure you take out the resonator on your new SLK55. My buddy took it off his and the sound is WOW. Almost sounds like a 63 but the sound is unique, specially at high speeds. Enjoy your ride!
