I assume the cheapo version will get 1.8K?

then a 3.2 V6 or perhaps the "350" treatment and step up to the 3.7? Assuming they still want to target Z4/TT/Boxster trio then for sure they will need a "value" model like the SLK230K to go again Z42.5 and TT180, and "highline" model like SLK320 (or 350) to do battle with Z4 3.0/TT 225/TT V6/Bosxter.

Will AMG version still be 32 or go up to 55 now that SL55 is being phased out for SL65... I suppose that depends on what BMW does with M roadster, hemm...

I'm also hoping MBUSA will bring proper manual transmission for this car right from the start. But that's too much to ask...
