'05 SLK350 Base Pricing Released!!

I just read in the News Channel section of Netstar that MBUSA has released the base MSRP for the '05 SLK350. They will start at $45,500 plus optional equipment and destination charge. It also states that dealer demos will start being shipped out on August 23rd and the official Wholesale/Release date is slated for September 1st. The first cars out will be the Launch Edition of which only 1,000 will be built. They will all be Pewter Metallic w/exclusive Brown Nappa leather interior and have unique exterior accessories that includes all-new 17" alloy wheels. These Launch Editions will have a base MSRP of $52,000 plus options and destination charge!!

Thanks MarcusBenz

Do you know what is included with the Launch Edition (i.e. what is covered within the $52K price tag)?

TIA

They have not told us the details of what is included other than the items that I have already mentioned. As soon as I get a list on the equipment, I will post and let everyone know the details!!
