Question HELP PLEASE-trunk measurement

Can anyone please give me the inside demensions on the SLK 230 (2003 model-?) I need to fly into another town and pick up my new car-but I have no idea if the lugage I'll have with me (1 large carry on and 1 std. suitcase) will fit into my new trunk. The specs say 9.5 cu. ft of cargo space-but how does that relate to width x height x length?

thanks in advance for the help-Larry

The basic trunk dimensions are about 35"Wx18"Hx25"D. These are rounded down so they are conservative, and there is some additional space in the very top front of the trunk that is irregular in shape.

Also, if the car has a CD changer, you lose about 4 inches of width.

Thanks for the replys--I guess it's time to repack one of my suitcases.
