Silver/Red SLK 320 AMG Package + 6 Spd
Clean 2001 SLK 320 with AMG Sport Package, 6 Speed Manual and Red leather Interior. (rare spec) Car has 3.2l V6 with 215 hp and 230lb ft. Pulls strong in every gear. Really fun and a pleasure to drive with the top down. Folding metal hard top, all original except upgraded CD stereo. Heated Seats, New Potenza HP Summer Tires, and Xenon lights. Car has a folding metal roof so it can be used year round.
* Car has a minor accident reported on Carfax: details below*
AMG Sport Package features: a unique AMG Body kit, AMG 17” wheels, Red AMG branded brakes, Sport Seats and Suspension, illuminated AMG written in the doorsills as well as an AMG badge on the back of the car. (I removed this because I dont like thshow-offyfy M or AMG badges on cars that just have an AMG Package) Supposedly this was a pretty rare option and it in combination with the manual gearbox was the reason I purchased the car last year. That and I really like Silver convertibles with red interiors. Reminds me of old vintage 550 Spyders and Gullwings.![](https://rennlist.com/forums/images/smilies/wink.gif)
A quick condition breakdown:
Exterior 8: It has a few minor scratches on the front bumper but all in all the paint looks quite good and there are no dents. The original AMG wheels have some curb scuffs but they are straight and true and ride quite nicely. the front left headlight washer cover broke (see photo) it has since been fixed.
Interior: 7-8: The interior is in good condition without a single crack in the dash. The red leather is not faded at all and there are no squeaks or rattles. The only flaws are a little wear on the seat bolsters, inner door handles, and the shift knob.
Mechanical: 8: I changed all the fluids when I bought the car even though the dealer claimed they had recently done it. I put about five thousand miles on it since that time and the car has been bulletproof. EVERYTHING works as it should. Air conditioning, Convertible top, suspension, brakes, and engine are all good. No clutch slippage, Car has not consumed any oil since I changed it. It pulls in every gear, is happy to rev and idles like a sewing machine. The tires have lots of life in them. The only thing that is currently not working is the central locking but I've had the vacuum pump repaired so that will be installed in the coming days.
Service Records: 5: I have the service records for my time of ownership. I also have the carfax for you. As I mentioned in the add there was an accident reported to the front end with minor damage. The car was driveable and it must have been a fender bender because my very competent mechanic found nothing when he inspected it. I would be very happy if you had the car PPI'd as I don't want any buyers remorse.
Winter Tires & Wheels: I purchased these on Tirerack for $750 and put about 1500 miles on them. They are mint. They fit most Mercs so I intended to sell them for ~$500 but would be happy to sell to the buyer.
All in all I can say this is really one of the cleanest SLK 320's I have seen, with one of the best option specs. Its a real hoot to drive and from reviews and other owners I have spoken too they are as reliable as you can get.
Selling to make room in the stable for a 2010 Cayman I just purchased.
Happy to answer all questions, provide more photos, and offer test drives to interested parties. PPI's welcome! Car is located at Jersey Shore. Definitely a fun, unique car for the money. Thanks for looking.

Also, I just washed the car prior to taking these photos hence the water underneath the driver side door and water drops on front bumper

Several people asked if this is a folding hard top or a cabriolet with a spec boxster style removable hardtop. Attached are photos to clarify as well as a video of how the roof works:
