SLK280 was on display at the NY Auto show.
It will slot under the SLK350 as the entry level model in the US.
It has a new 3.0 Litre engine with ~230hp if I am not mistaken.
Cheers!

200K - soon to die?
My my I bet all those people who rushed out to get the first SLK 200's are really kicking themselves to be left with such an underpowered machine...

Fuel economy...
I wonder what the fuel economy is for that vehicle...and i wonder if this means they are going to bring in more lower to mid range SLs?
