hmmmm

Too many, lol. I've been driving the slk55 for about 4 months, and I think it's priced just right in the US, $62k+. $100k+ is a little too much for this car.

You would have a lot of different choices....really too many to list.

That's crazy, I can't imagine paying that much for an SLK, then again something that cost 135K here will cost twice as much there. While I was touring China, one of the tour guides said that by 2008, taxes on cars will be equivalent to America, so a 65K USD SLK will be similiar in China. Many people are waiting until then to purchase their cars. I can't imagine the same tax rule to apply in HK, it'll be crazy, even with taxes at 100%, there's tons of exotic cars. If this tax break applies, BMW and Benz will be like Kia's in HK.

In Canada, the base for a SLK55 is about $86,000. We don't get as many options as in the US (most US options are standard here) so a loaded one would be about $92,000.
