Can't find any SLK 200s here in the states...

I live in New England, and i've looked but i can't find any up for sale. Has anyone bought a SLK 200 or an SLK 200 kompressor recently? If so, for how much? The 1997 looks like it'd be could be an affordable hardtop but then again, most SLKs I see are way out of my price range heh. I'm pretty sure this one will be out of my pricerange, but it never hurts to ask!

SLK 200 not sold here

The SLK 200 was never sold here. You have to look for an SLK 230.

You should be able to find a number of listings on autotrader.com

Ah, it was as i suspected...i looked up information on it and it said that the slk 200 was only exported to a few countries; none of them were the united states. Unfortunately, the SLK 230 is too expensive for me, lol. Thanks anyways though.

What are you talking about? You can get the SLK 230 for not very much money.

1998 was the first year for the SLK230 in the USA. I just bought mine for $12,000.
