It's so much fun to drive... the engine sounds beautiful... my c230k is pretty whiny and loud... i think the stock suspension in the slk is pretty stiff, i was a little surprised. my car is lowered and still has stock shocks, so the ride quality is all right. power... i haven't really pushed the slk too hard...but at the lovemercedes tour, it felt pretty adequate. my car can't really compare to it....
the interior of the slk has some weird materials which i feel look kind of cheap but at the same time it looks modern.

in any case, the slk rocks!

What's that piece of trim behind the rear wheels? Mud guard?

That background looks awfully familiar..palos verdes, right? Some fun, twisty driving roads on that 'mountain', and some great views too.

Palos Verdes was my guess too once I saw the water. I recall looking at homes for sale being newly built in the mid 70's with views all the way to Catalina Island and overlooking what once was Marineland. A beautiful location.
