Ordered 2014 SLK350 yesterday

Just want to get acquainted. Ordered Red w/Multimedia & Premium pkg. Found out that Pano roof is included in 320 Multimedia. Also a few other options. Do you recommend 18" AMG wheels over std. 17" wheels? Any other ideas.?
Will probably go into production in about 30 days.
Change that to SLK250. Sorry.

took delivery on my 2014 SLK350 Friday

Pano roof is included in the base car now. Parktronic is really a waste. Real difficult to look at the arrows on the display at the same time you are watching for traffic passing by. Chrome hood fins were never put on at the port or the factory. 18" wheels std. top movement is incredibly slick.
Steel Gray Metallic is an awesome color for this model. Dealer says mine is one of the first 14 slk350's in the country

R500 + SLK55 AMG
I have ParkTronic on my R500 and on that boat, it's really helpful. But my SLK55 does not have ParkTronic and I don't feel the need for it at all. The car is so small and maneuverable that I have no problem judging the perimiter for parking.
