Hi MarcusBenz

Many thanks for listing these options. Can you provide insight to the following if you have it?

1) List price for SLK350
2) List price for the various listed options
3) Can you gauge whether there is a long order list for the SLK?

I am interested in the SLK and like to gauge the price range for the SLK when it comes out as well as whether dealers are willing to negotiate on pricing.

Many thanks in advance

 

Thanks for the great info.

Do you also have a list of the standard features? For example, do you need package 317 to get a power driver's seat, or does the SLK350 come with (for example) a 4-way power seat and the 317 option bumps it up to an 8-way seat?

 

GearHead,

The official US Pricing has not be released yet & neither has that for the options. As far as waiting list on the car, it will vary from dealer to dealer. Here at the House, the list is not too long, I would say about 30 orders as of now. Also, I would not count on any dealers discounts for the first 6 months to a year!!


mbslk350,

I have not seen that info. as of yet, but will do some investigating to find out what the deal is!!

 

Hi MarcusBenz

Many thanks for the update. Laws of supply and demand will always prevail.

As for pricing, when you have the pricing, if you don't mind, please post them.

For some of us without deep pockets for fun stuff, it means we have to save for it. Like to be prepared how much to put aside for this ... my midlife crisis gift ...

Thanks again

 

thanks for the list! i just dont know if i should trade in my 04 e320 in or what! i want to drive it first,cuz im almost 6'1,ive heard mixed reports on the comfort for 6 ft people,so i dont know,i still dont see how people can already buy it right now without seeing it or driving it,actually i can see how,but for me,i could never buy a car without actually seeing/driving it,but im sure no one will be disapointed with the new SLK,me i just have to see if i can be comfy in the dam car.haha

 

I will post pricing as soon as it is released!!!

 

Does anybody know if yellow will be an exterior color option?

 

MarcusBenz: Any info about pricing? Are you taking pre-orders yet?
I read on a previous post that you can sell MBs to people around the country. Will this be possible with this new baby?
Thanks a bunch !

Angel

 

Angel,

So far, still no word on pricing, but should not be much longer! As for deposits, I can help you with that no matter where you live. My store requires a $1000, fully refundable, deposit & you can build the car to your exact specifications. If you would like to pursue this further, please feel free to contact me directly!!

 

Marcus,

Do you know if the new C55 will have tire pressure monitor? Also, if it does do you have to get it from the factory or can you get it later in the dealership?

thanks!

 

Anything other than Black and whatever combinations?

 

Anyone knows what the difference is between this 2 packages? They seem to be the same except for the "DVD-based" comment on the first one. Are they the same or does it mean that the 420 is a CD-based COMAND? I think all newl SLKs are DVD based ... but who knows....
Thanks,

Angel

 

My interpretation is that 320 has Navigation but 420 does not. Both have the COMAND headunit but 420 uses it only for the audio system.

Other threads have mentioned that both options allow you to play DVDs while parked.

 

That makes sense. 320 all the way ! COMAND has been a blessing for me because I no longer argue with my wife when she guides me using a paper map

 

Any word as to whether it will be discounted on European delivery?

 

According to MarcusBenz no discount will be available

 

Yeah, I saw that but thought it related to US delivery. My local dealer has said the same thing about US delivery, but hasn't heard anything yet regarding ED.

 

I asked him specifically about ED, he checked with MB USA and told me no discount will be available on ED. I was thinking about doing that but now I think I'll go with US delivery.

 

Thanks for the info, disappointing though it is.

 

Hello Marcus

You are probably on top of this but I was wondering whether you had received any news on MBUSA releasing the pricing for the '05 SLK?

Also, based upon your previous posting on color options, it appears that Pewter is not available for 2005 SLK. Any truth to that?

Thanks in advance

 

You said it!

 

I am also considering both ED and US and would appreciate any answers as people hear them. I have gotten mixed messages from 3 different dealers.
