Just picked up a 2012 SLK 350 with just 610 miles. Who buys a new car and only puts 610 miles on it in the next six years. Crazy. It now has 1043 miles as we had to drive back from Charlotte. It is Artic White with a beige interior.
Spent today washing polishing and waxing. Tomorrow will clean the interior and treat the leather. A few small nicks will get after with Dr Colorchip. Removed the front license plate holder now have to plug the holes. Ordered bumper plugs. I will post some pictures when I’m done detailing it. Was a nice ride back but there was a crazy amount of traffic.f

This was a Christmas present for my wife.

CONGRATS TO YOU AND YOUR WIFE....
I just did the same thing.......found a 2015 SLK 250 with 1040 miles for my wife. Certified pre-owned and less than half the price of the 2018 SLK 300 (which is still the 250).

You lucky duck, I was looking at that car too. You beat me to it. But it's nice you bought it for your wife. I have since bought one in Baton Rouge and should get it soon. That's a nice car you got.

I got lucky on this one. I sent them a message on Christmas Eve. They replied and we worked out a deal on Christmas Day and picked it up on the day after Christmas. Nice car and nice people to work with. It is just like a new car only half price. My wife loves it. Hope you are as fortunate as we were.
