Trade in for SLK

hey
I currently lease a clk320 coupe,but i just cant stop thinking about an slk350 in my driveway instead (cant go for both we just took delivery of a 330 convert but its my sisters daily driver)
Anyhow, do you think my dealer would trade in my lease to lease a new slk?would i have to pay the bank fees and all that over again??
also what kind of payments do you guys pay (if anyone here leases)
i appreciate any input

my choice would've been CLK over SLK. Is SLK that much better than CLK?? I've been in SLK few times but never in CLK.

by the way, SLK is a GOOD car and i envy SLK owners.

Of course you can trade in any car; however, be prepared to pay. Just set it on fire.
