SLK 55 AMG
both numbers are true. here is why:

In the MB SLK 55 AMG book it says 362 hp at 6000 rpm and every where else says 355 at 5750 rpms.

HP numbers are calculated on a different formula in the US, then over in mainland Europe. In Europe, the 55 has 360hp, whilst in the states, this number is 355.

An SL55 in Europe has 500hp, in the states, it's just over 490 (if I remember correctly).

It's the same amount in KW I believe, but just isn't measured in the same way.
